Time After Time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Frametastic

Have you thought about putting your edible photo on an edible frame on your wedding cake? Or birthday cake? Or whatever cake you can think of?
Well...this is how it will look like.

This delicate frame is made from royal icing...I am sure some of your relatives or friends would be happy to munch you...ha,ha,ha!
Such a tedious process but the outcome is mind blowing! This particular piece was done during my three day workshop at The Dessert Table, Mutiara Damansara under the coaching of Puan Farida.

I just want to ride on my motorcycle

I love being challenged with new cake design...one I have not attempted before, like this one.
When I was asked if I can do a 3D Harley Davidson cake, I know I want to do it. After "google..ing" , deep in my heart I know I can do this despite the fact that it was my first time. Internet and U-Tube are my teachers.
Baking, cake stacking, trimming into shape, covering with fondant and attaching all the details took me 10 hours or maybe more....I didn't really count. I was enjoying myself.
Despite the long hours I felt tremendous pleasure when this cake is completed. My son even made a poster of it.

The Architect

Finally ....I built something. And it is edible! I built a gazebo...a sugar gazebo. It was made from royal icing...a very delicate one.


This three tier cake was done under the coaching of Puan Farida from The Dessert Table. It was a 3 day workshop I went. A very fun and interesting workshop. I learned some new royal icing techniques and tips from the coach.

The yellow cake with white details looks regal in my opinion. What is yours?
