Let them eat cake

I did this cake version years ago and in different colors. This cake was all design by the couple whom were tying the knot. I only add a few details here and there to complete the 'look'. 

The cake topper - red rose flower bouquet

3 tier wedding cake in combination of Gold red and white - this couple tied the knot in January 2012

Single layer wedding cake for Esther and Fabian - 10th Dec 2011.  

 2 tier carrot walnut cheese wedding cake as requested by Jaina for his brother - 26th Dec 2011

2 tier  wedding dress cake - for Jac and Alex in purple color

 A combination of yellow flower petal and yellow roses in silver ribbon for a wedding in January 2012 as requested by Helena for her sister in law

 3 tier pink wedding cake for Lyndiana's cousin. I used the silver string decoration to enhance the 'look' and to match it with the silver dragees. I did a cake design like this 2 years back and she (Lyndiana ) requested the same design..which i willingly obliged :-)

A 2 tier carrot walnut cheese engagement cake for Leng -leng. She is also a Pink fanatic. However mom says the flower must be in red. So mom won being a Chinese descendant, red is a must on an event like this..:D

Gotcha cake

Another couple who tied the knot in February 2012. The Bride Judy is from Kota Kinabalu Sabah and worked in Kuala Lumpur where she met her husband. She send me a photo of the wedding cake that they favor and the topper!  Since the topper were not available here in Kota Kinabalu she brought it all the way from Kuala Lumpur. Judy and her husband is the first couple i work with that goes all the way to add humor in their first day as husband and wife. I would say that is a pretty good sign to start a marriage i supposed..:-) 

Photo courtesy of Annie Petrus Photography - copy to me by the bride Judy. I like to call this the Gotcha Cake  or Judy's Gotcha Cake..This is the wedding cake and decoration i did for Judy. The Picture below is the one Judy send to me to me as a sample for her cake.

Sample photo... Her only instruction was of her wedding color theme which is purple and white and cake topper had to be the Gotcha topper!

Haha.. "Gotcha topper" now belong to me to be rent out to the next lovely couple.:D.. 

Judy and Johnson may God Bless you and live happily ever after as husband and wife and be blessed with children and grandchildren running around your feet..:-) Thank you for your trust in me as your wedding cake baker.

Everyone till we meet again.. Happy baking!

Tiramisu

I am a person who collect recipes whenever i sees them. I will keep it till one day i might tried on one of them..and always that will never happen. That one day will turn to months and years and recipe book still be there collecting dust.

After watching Julie and Julia, i resolute to bake at least one recipe out of the many books or photocopy recipe or even in that messy compilation of  handwritten recipe. After flipping the pages.. i decided  on a Tiramisu .. o yes the delicate Tiramisu. The recipe that i copied does not contain any alcohol and did not use the usual mascarpone cheese. The result is just as heavenly as any tiramisu and i will definitely use this recipe again.

 My family gave it a thumbs up as a sign of their approval. Recipe courtesy Sondra Lee. Thank you Sondra Lee i found the easiest tiramisu recipe ever and still taste rich and creamy.

Romantic in shades of Pink

I just have one word for this - Gorgeous! Everything about this wedding from the bride, the family, the setting, decorations, flowers and of course the cake is just GORGEOUS. It begun in a simple tele inquiry about the wedding cake last November (bride working in Kuala Lumpur) to the day i met her (January 2012) and on her BIG Day(February 2012).. she is simply Gorgeous not just in her look but also in her personality. Her groom is one lucky fella... 

The wedding topper - bride choose her own wedding cake topper !
