Paige Turns 11!

So my daughter celebrated her 11th birthday over the long weekend and well, there was no getting out of making a cake for her 😄
She requested sunshine, pineapples and flamingos!!! I wanted to do something with buttercream rather then ganache and fondant. Besides who doesn't love a good buttercream cake!! I also wanted to use cookies as the decorations rather then making fondant ones. I've seen a few cakers use cookies round the place, but one caker who I've admired for quite some time does it do well that I couldn't resist recreating one of her designs. So design credit for this cake goes to Spoon and Fork. I do love the end result of this cake and it tasted delish!! Happy birthday Paigey xx

Sally's Beach Cake

Sally celebrated her birthday in luau/beach style!! She wanted a cake to fit the theme. I proposed several different designs for her, and she decided on this one! I loved making the thongs! Such a fun cake.

Happy caking.

A bit of this and a bit of that......

Now here's some bitsa cupcakes!! Maddie ordered these for her daughter Brittany's 12th birthday. Brittany, loves blue (much to mums disgust!!) and requested some ballet, soccer and the beach cuppies. I heard they were a hit!! Happy Birthday.

Aloha!

Here's some Hawaiian cupcakes I made for 2 different people whose daughters were both having Hawaiian themed parties over the weekend. It was weird getting the same request for a new theme for 2 people on the same day!! Anyway, Hau' oli la hanau (Happy Birthday) Sophie and Olivia!!

Snorkel anyone?

Another request for beach theme happy cakes with a difference. I love my little snorkelers!

Surfs up dude!!

Ok, we all know how I get excited over new themes, well this is a fairly cool one, it was a surf/beach party. Not only was the theme cool, but these happy cakes were for a boy!! That's two things to be excited about! I very rarely get the opportunity to do happy cakes for boys, I don't know why. My favourite ones are the surfboards, I think these are pretty cute, I mean rad!! Believe it or not those little splotches took me forever!! Altogether though I think they look pretty cool! Happy birthday Sam.
