Word World Cake

An interesting theme requested from my colleague for her beloved nephew. I didn't even know of such an educational program till she showed me pictures of this theme - Word World.The animals were made of wordings joined together. Can you figure out what is this animal?Altogether, she requested a dog, a pig and a duck. Really having fun making out the animals using words. Even my little darling girl was happily telling me all the names of the animals molded here.

Castle Cake for Baby Shelbi

A colleague of mine ordered this cake for her little darling 1st birthday. I was already making preparation for this cake when the Ben10 cake order "cut in the queue". Hahaha... Having a heart-attack week doing these 2 cakes. First time doing a castle cake and was cueless how to get the 4 towers done up. It's really stressful doing these towers. Firstly, it's time pressing. Secondly, during transporting the half done towers, they collasped and damaged the little doll as well. Third, they went out of shape due to the constant transporting around. And lastly, i had such a hard time sticking the towers onto the cake board. But luckily, i've made it in time for the cake to be picked up for the celebration. Yippie!!See the pose the little baby is having? Hahaha... Mummy said it's her baby unique "sexy pose" and requested it here. So cute of this little baby. I loved her cheeks... So chubby, same as my darling son. And of cos', she got a big birthday kiss from my cheeky son on that day too... :)

Ben10 cake for YiJie

My ex-boss ordered a Ben10 cake for his staff's son. This ex-boss is a real wonderful guy. I hate it that i don't have the chance to work with him for a longer period of time. Nevertheless, here's the result of the Ben10 cake for a wonderful ex-colleague of mine.A crush week for me to do 2 cakes one day apart from each other. I was thinking of not to accept this order due to time constraint, but how can i ever turn down the request of my ex-boss who had taken such good care of me before? Worked late into the night for a few nights in molding the figurines.I've noted my skills in molding did improve. It's really a challenge for me, with so much to do and so little time given. My ex-colleague sms-ed me and told me how delighted her son was with the cake and how his classmates envied him during the celebration. Only regret is that they can't keep the figurines. I was so happy to received such nice feedback. Thanks, Kat for giving me the chance to work on this cake and a bigger thanks to my ex-boss for this order. I will always remembered all the goodwills showered on me during the time i had reported under you!! :)

Pirate Ship

My daughter's ex-schoolmate mummy requested for a pirate ship for her darling son to celebrate his 5th birthday. Her son is currently so intrigued with pirates and had wanted a huge pirate ship cake for his birthday.Mummy ordered a large cake so he can share with more than 50 of his schoolmates in the childcare centre. I was really so busy baking and craving out the shape of the ship over the weekend. Thanks to my hubby for helping to take care of the kids, else, judging from the time i took to bake the 2 big cakes (joined together here), i would have to sleep at 3-4am in the morning already.
:)Made a total of 3 pirates here. Love how they turned out. Thanks for Fei's mummy for giving me the chance to practice more on my workmanship to mold human!!Specially did the waves here with buttercream. I normally don't do piping work for sugarpaste order, but can't help it cos' what is a ship in the sea without "waves". Hahaha..
