White Wedding

This very sweet cake all in white had just the right amount of texture and bling to please this bride.  There is something so graceful about the simple white roses on the top and just a hint of the palest green.

 A little colourful birthday cake for twin girls Emma and Sydney.

A baby shower cake for a little boy.  Lucky mommy is having two baby showers and so another one for this baby is coming up next week.

A life time of achievement or Kal and a few milestones represented on this smart cake.

Ian's confirmation cake was identical to his brother's last year.  Little story from the client is that they loved looking at the cake so much that none of them had the heart to cut into it, so they decided to keep it.  They have had it on the table for a whole year and said they only threw it out so that they didn't mix the two identical cakes up!
I wonder if this one will be eaten?

Bianka's first communion cake.  Bianka and her mother came in to see us and she fell in love with our pearls and cameos cake that we have in the shop and decided that was what she wanted for her first communion cake.  Her wish was our command and here is the cake, with a 'younger' feel.

And yet another deja vu?  This tea pot cake was ordered for Mother's Day for a very special lady who loves vintage tea cups and pretty things.  I'm sure she'll love this.

Purple Blossoms - Copetown Woods Golf and Country Club

A huge wedding cake with a spring theme.  Hand painted vines with purple blossoms and little yellow accents made this cake feel like springtime.

Copetown Woods Golf Course was beautiful and when we delivered the cake there was sunshine everywhere.

There was a surprise of two initials that we didn't know had to go on the cake.  We managed to get them off but it is worth mentioning that all toppers must be brought to us at least one week before the date of the wedding so that we can secure them on to cake, it's not good leaving this to chance in case they didn't fit (which was the case here).

We also removed the silver board from the bottom of the cake and placed it on a Lou Hanson hand made cake stand.

For Abigale

A christening cake for Abigale - we matched her christening dress which had little flowers around the middle and frills all at the bottom.

Confirmation For Julian

Julian, a budding violinist had his confirmation this weekend and we made this cake for him to match his theme.

Turquoise and Orange

This weeks personal favourite, something that was inspired by a cake that we've done before in pink and turquoise a kind of shabby chic meets Marie Antoinette for a first communion.

Other Cakes This Week

Gender Reveal Cake:
The mom-to-be brought us an envelope which had a sealed note from her doctor with the sex of the baby written on it.  We made a cake with the corresponding colour on the inside.  The family are gathering this weekend for a party and to find out all together if it's a boy or a girl.

Giant Cupcake

A special cake for my son and his lovely girlfriend Negin, based on her favourite colours, black and grey, with a little bit of pink (I can never resist) and lots of bling which regrettably doesn't really show up in this picture.  The cherries were covered in pink glitter and the black flowers were edged in silver glitter we added rows of diamonds on the bottom of the cupcake.

Happy Birthday Neggie Noo Noos!

Spider Man

We make cakes for little boys too!  Paolo is a Spider Man fan and since his mummy always buys her cakes from us we had to come up with a cool design for this 4th Birthday cake.

The client brought us the Spider Man figurine (we are unable to recreate these in sugar for copyright reasons) and we built the cake around him.  Red velvet cake of course!

5 Year Survivor

We were privileged to make a cake for a five year survivor of lymphatic cancer.  We certainly love to make cakes for life's milestones.

Miniature Roses

A miniature cake for two with lots of tiny sugar flowers, nothing says "I remembered!" like a little treat in a pink box!

Antique Vision

For a 90th birthday we were asked to make something with an antique flair, pink roses and lots and lots of pearls.  

We also had to make 100 matching cupcakes in chocolate and salted caramel and vanilla and strawberry all decorated with mini roses. 

Spring Baby

Another little baby on a cake, this time with spring blossoms and shiny bubbles and surrounded by sugar lace pieces.  All edible. 

We also made matching mini cupcakes, how cute is that?

Purple Sashes - Hamilton War Plane Museum

Imagine a huge hangar full of light aircraft from across the ages.  Now picture a clearing in the middle with a hundred white satin chairs with huge, deep purple satin sashes, tables draped with purple sashes and bows and now this cake, perched on a table with it's purple satin sashes.

Baptism Cake

Here's a take that we did for a wedding cake a few months ago, this time with a blingy brooch keepsake right in the middle.  A modern take on a traditional occasion.

Pink Blossoms - Edgewater Manor, Stoney Creek

The softest pink blossoms with a hand painted green vine background to the cake, such a soft cake that makes you want to tip your head to one side and say ahhhh.

The d'Oro Wedding Anniversary

Golden wedding anniversaries are very special.  Even more so when the couple celebrating are family members.  My husband's parents celebrated their 50 years together with a beautiful ceremony to renew their vows and a dinner with family and friends....and a cake, of course!
