Past Project - MIA

 Hi!!

Yet another update for the MIA period!


This is an order for 250pax of Christmas box.  This order consists of 500 Gingerbread Man and 250 Red Velvet Cupcakes. Yes that's ALOT for just poor me. Luckily I have my Grandma:D, and some friends who voluntarily came over to help with misc. stuff like Deco and packaging issues.

This was the first ever order that is over 12 cupcakes per order. YES, a challenge but it was a successful one with certain hiccups here and there.




This is part of the Red Velvets that we baked.




And yes PART of the packed Gingerbreadman. I have never seen SO MANY smileys looking at you. Quite creepy actually.








These photos are the cupcakes and the gingerbread man. This was the packaging that I used for this Christmas Box.

Not the perfect kinda box I will use. But the packaging issue was settled kinda last minute so I had to make do with it. Furthermore the company that makes something that I want need to order like a THOUSAND pieces for a wholesale px. Imagine that. My house totally NO SPACE at all.







 Yeah. And guess what, my name card is here!

Made it just in time for this order! Quite proud of it!







I'm off to lunch and to study for my TEST!
Remember to come back soon for further projects! and look at our new OREO cake!


Cheerios!

Past projects - MIA

AS PROMISED!


Today's post are on the previous projects that I have done.

Firstly one of my closest friend's cake. Shobana. She ordered this cake for her 21st Birthday cake that will be celebrated with her cousin. So this cake has to be UNISEX as her cousin is a male. SO, much discussion had to be made to make it unisex.



This is the Full View of the Cake. Its a one face cake. Means not meant for a 360 view :)




Actually, there is a story to her cake. about 3 hours before the party which I have to attend too, the top tier was ENTIRELY different. Serious. I was more blotch and thick black stokes on it. Wasn't really happy and furthermore we had to stick the cake into the fridge as it had the fragile and decadent triple chocolate cake(which MUST BE COLD - if not it will melt. Literally). The next day for final touch ups, the Cake started to cry. It was dripping with water and it looks like a girl bawling her eyes out with streaks of black mascara on her cheeks. YES MY FRIENDS it was the worst case scenario. Stripping and redoing the top tier. 3 hours before the event. AND I HAD TO MAKE A NEW RECIPE OF FONDANT FROM SCRATCH I HAD NO LEFTOVERS.

So, that how the top tier got into. :D














Honestly, I really feel that it was a blessing in disguise.








Another project!

MIA

I know I know.


It has been lightyears since I've updated this blogshop about cakes since I seriously don't know when. BUT WE ARE STILL OPEN!!! Its because of Thousands of orders we're having and the studying that I HAVE TO GO THROUGH preventing me and making me procrastinate to blog about anything as I'm too tired to do ANYTHING.


It been a though few months. but I'm still standing! Will bring myself to connect the camera to its USB cable and plug it into the Mac to transfer those photos!

HEH give me one more day HUH. :D


Just to note!

Did a cakepop themed cake, 200 cakepops order and Deathly Hallows Symbol cake.. and MANY MORE till I can't really remember. HEH. :P


Just finished a 250 pax order consisting of 250 red velvets and 500 gingerbread mans. YES. 500. Imagine the decor for each of them.. BUT its therapeutic seriously. I can do baking and decor anytime and it wont get me stressed up like school(BLEAGH!).


ALSO... Fruitcakes and Xmas Cupcakes to come!!


So look out for the photos TMR!




CHEERIOS!
