Rilakkuma Cake
A Valentine's cake requested by my colleague for his beloved wife. He wanted a Rilakkuma and friends' cake. I have never heard of these japanese characters and luckily he showed me a picture of them. So cute...
I was thinking of how to do and and after some thoughts, decided to just repilcate what he had shown me in the picture and here's the 3 cute little cartoons. Hmm... Chosen a white color base instead of a bright red one simply because white represent purity. Another beautiful colour for Valentine's Day.
:)
He also requested a peach colored carnation. Maybe his wife likes carnation... Have a wonderful day, my dear colleague...

Chinese Zodiac - Animals Cake
A new theme again!! My ex-colleague wanted a chinese zodiac sign - Animals cake, for her baby 1st birthday.
wow... a long time ex-colleague whom i had not met for almost a good 10 years already. So happy to see her today, coming to collect the cake.
:)
Hmmm... Her request:
1) A pig, cow, monkey, sheep and snake cos' these are the chinese zodiac signs of her beloved family members.
2) Balloons behind the cow (her son is born in the year of oxen). My mistake, i "mis-calculated" the length and ended up it's so short.
3) A barnyard farm house.
4) Her darling son's name on the cake
5) Some super mario white-spots mushrooms.
Hmmm... Hope i've gotten everything correct here. :)
Hehehe... She had shown me pictures of the stuff she wanted and i tried to make it as close as possible...
Ohh... A naughty pig trying to climb up to sniff a mushroom.
Have a wonderful 1st birthday, Baby Theodore...

Humpty Dumpty cake
"Humpty Dumpty sitting on the wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men, could not put, humpty dumpty together again!!"
This is the theme my dear friend had requested for her younger son 2nd birthday cos' her son loves this nursery rhyme.
All the king's horse and all the king's men, with the king here. See their shocking facial expression here?
Hope i'd grasped it well...
Yes, Humpty Dumpty here! He's still so happily sitting on the wall!
My dear friend told me she doesn't want too complicated a design, so i just kept the whole design plain and simple here. Hope our dear Kaylen boy has a wonderful birthday celebration in school!!

Donald Duck cake
My colleague ordered a Donald Duck cake for her beloved hubby's birthday. This is a relatively easy cake to do cos' she had already given me all her requirements and photos and i have to think too much. Hahaha...
Ohh... I have a surprise when she told me her age too. Ooppss... 28years, seems so far away from me!! Seems like i'm so old already..

Bee Hives Cake
My colleague requested for a bee cake for a fellow colleague. This request was due to our birthday boy always wearing stripes clothing to work. Hahaha... So, i told her that i would make a heehives with many bees attracted to it.
She also requested a bigger bee be be smoking to be placed on the cake. Here's the bigger bee (which represented the birthday boy) and i also made a pair of glasses for him. Hehehe...
Hmmm... All the little bees around the hives. These little bees represent all the fellow colleagues from the CAD team. All of you are just as hardworking and busy as the bees.. Salute to all of you!!!
Here's a cascading effect of daisy flowers down the hives. Hahaha... In fact, they are there to hide some of my flaws in covering the cake. Can you spot it?

Ponyo and Plush Piggy
A mummy came to me with some photos and wanted a 2 tiers cake for her baby 1st birthday. Ponyo... Hmmm... never heard of before and mummy explained to me that it's actually a fish wanting to become human and turned into a little girl....
It's really heart warming to see both daddy and mummy came to collect the cake. Loving parents...
Mummy also requested a plush piggy which her daughter loved a lot...
Also, a simple request for the cake to be bright and cheery!!
Hmmm... i thought that since i'll do a 2 tiers, the top one will be a sea world, as Ponyo lives in the sea. All round the top tier are sea creatures... There's octopus, turtle, stingray, starfishes and crab. :)
See how cute this little plush piggy is? Hehehe....
Hmmm... mummy initially also requested cuppies, but since i'm baking 2 cakes here, i can't find time to bake cuppies and she said her cuppies theme is garden. So, i did the bottome tier with garden feel, with a bold use of bright color to fuifil her request. A very happy birthday to you, Baby Jayann...

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..
:)
