Wedding at the Raffles

My favourite photo of the lot, really captures the "taste" of the cupcakes...

How I came about to do this wedding was unique. The bride actually lives in the UK, but she found me online! We communicated back and forth for a couple of weeks and wala! Her wedding cupcakes were born! She wanted something simple but elegant, and she was always keen on hearts from the beginning so she requested the chocolate (white and dark versions) to top the swirled frosting. Simple butter cucpakes, with alternate vanilla and chocolate frostings. I was tempted to bite in but I had to hold back! She also requested for clear boxes and loved the idea of a ribbon, as she wanted something like a gift box concept. Then we piled them up like a pyramid, it took 45 minutes of set up but was worth every second! I have to say a big thank you to Yola Chocolates in KL, Malaysia for supplying the chocolate hearts!

Chocolate Comatose!

My "Aztec Gold" which is chocolate cupcakes with chilli chocolate frosting (mmm food of the Gods) and my "Choco Nutter" which is double chocolate chip cupcakes with peanut butter cream frosting and chocolate sprinkles! Mmmmmmmm........

"Glitter" Theme 25th Wedding Anniversary

 

Hi again cupcake lovers! Sorry I haven't blogged for a week or so as it's been crazy busy with weddings! Only got 4 hours sleeps over 2 nights on the weekend, but it was worth it. :) So I'm gonna be uploading a few entries today. I did these "Glitter" cupcakes for a 25th Wedding Anniversary a week and half ago. The lovely couple also invited my sister and I to join in for their dinner, which was very sweet of them. Food was great and so was the company. Made a mixture of my red velvet, chocolate, tiramisu and lemon flavours and topped it with edible silver dragees. Yum yum's! Here's to 25 more more years to J & A!

Pastel Variety, Bridal Style!

These pastel treats were made for tasting session. Did take me a while to get the colours and combinations right, and they turned out better then I expected. The bride originally wanted all the designs, but she changed her mind at the last minute and wanted the designs exactly like the ones in the post titled "The Sweetest Treats". Official photos from that to come soon!

Corporate Cupcakes

Corporate client found me online and asked me if I could do up some samples for them as they're looking to hand them out to clients as Christmas gifts. This is their company logo that I decided to ice on, I said a prayer many times beforehand! They turned out pretty alright, but the client decided they prefer a marzipan circle with the logo printed on. And guess what? I gotta bake 600 cupcakes in the next few days for them! muahahahahah Will keep you posted with pictures very soon...

More Bridal Treats

I met with one of the prettiest brides last week so she could taste these cupcakes. My friends from Fleurlicious recommended me to her so we arranged to meet at their office. I'll be doing her wedding this weekend so will load up the photos from that right after. :)

"Dream a Little Dream"

 

Dream a little dream of me....da dad dum da da da... Haha ok I'm not the greatest singer but this was the theme of the wedding. The bride wanted a blue and yellow concept for the cupcakes, which was also the overal colour theme of their wedding. It's quite a pretty effect, and I handmade all the sugar flowers and butterflies with royal icing. Took some time and they're not as polished as the ones you buy in shops but it gave the right look. Found out something though, never leave them under a spotlight, as I discovered that day when my blue flowers slightly melted on to the yellow icing. :( They still looked ok nevertheless! We decorated the tier tower with white and pink eustomas, kindly provided by Fleurlicious (http://www.fleurlicious.com/) and sprinkled the table with blue crystals. I'm waiting on official photos to come through so will get that up hopefully soon. Keep dreaming of these beauties.... ;)
