A Whole Lot of Sweet

I won my boyfriend over with these cupcakes ;)

We were set up by friends and he knew I loved baking so I took along some Ferrero Rocher cupcakes to our first date...one year later and I'm teaching him how to decorate!

Wedding Party

A work colleague eloped and got married in Italy...she asked me to make her some cakes for the big wedding party they threw when they returned.

I decided to try my hand at white chocolate ganache and it came out pretty well!

I loved making the accompanying cupcakes...I'm pretty sure I made close to 100...my first big order.

The 80's Cake

The night before my cousins 30th birthday party...I get a frantic phone call...the cakes haven't risen. Half an hour later a very flushed cousin, best friend and another friend walk through my front door and we had new cakes baked in no time.

I'd never covered a cake in fondant...only watched YouTube videos so we decided to wing it. Armed with latex gloves, we start kneading lime green colour gel into 3kg of white fondant....while bestie prepped vodka jelly shots.

We made 2 tiers, one chocolate and one vanilla...one of them was gluten free but don't ask me which. To add to the 80's theme we did some pac-man cupcakes :)

We had such a fun night, drinking champers...eating pizza...I had a Columbian housemate at the time and I think she thought we were all nuts...making cakes until 2am but we ended up with a fantastic cake!
