Catching up!

It's been a couple of months since I posted new cake photos so today I decided to play catch up and include a few celebration cakes that I created before the hot summer weather arrived. Lots of fun designs, delicious flavours and special occasions!!


 It was a candy lover's dream come true for Madison's birthday! This two-tiered cake combined fun, bright colours, real candy and sugarpaste lollipops in a festive design for a special celebration.


This Hollywood-inspired birthday cake was all sparkle and shimmer, including a 2D movie camera, clapboard and theatre marquee featuring the birthday girl's name. A red carpet, silver stars topper and film strip border added the final touches.


An elegant baptism cake, complete with quilting, sugar flowers, butterflies, a sugarpaste cross and pearls, marked this special occasion. Inside was a delicious tropical coconut cake with layers of pineapple curd and pineapple buttercream.


I had a lot of fun creating this vintage record player, covered in delicious chocolate fondant with edible details made from sugarpaste. There was even more chocolate inside - rich chocolate cake with layers of milk chocolate buttercream!


It was Star Wars and superheros all wrapped up in one for Ben's 5th birthday cake. Superhero logos surrounded the sides of the cake while edible, hand-detailed 2D versions of Yoda and R2D2 adorned the top.
