The Simpsons cupcakes...

Another order from Rachel and this time round she wanted the Simpsons cupcakes for her husband's birthday. I have not watched or played the game before so I do not have any idea who are the characters in it. Luckily Rachel gave me the idea and I followed accordingly.


The happy family!

Happy Birthday!

Inside out cupcakes...

An interesting order from my Da Jie who wanted to give her colleagues some farewell cupcakes as she is moving on to another team. She wanted inside out cupcakes maybe it best represents the characters of her different colleagues. LOL. But having watched the movie, I really liked how the whole story goes and loves all the different characters in it.

So I crafted the face of all the different emotions! We have Fear, Anger, Disgust, Joy and Sadness!


It turned out better than I have imagined and we even have a guest appearance of BingBong! My sis brought home the leftovers and the kids were fighting for Bingbong, showing its popularity! LOL.

Who do u like best?

Avengers cake...

An order from Annemarie who wanted an Avengers cake for her son's theme birthday party. This is a simple cake where I ordered a 2D icing image with the picture that she provided me.

Happy Birthday Eoin!

3D car cake for my BIL!

It's my brother-in-law's birthday once again! I think the last birthday cake that I made for him is actually the first fondant cake that I did for my class (and it is actually just nice because it was near his birthday and so it was not really customized for him).

So this time round, I decided to make a customized cake just for him! And I decided to challenge myself in making a 3D car cake for him who loves car and recently got his new audi. So I youtubed and googled for tutorials on how to make a car cake and set my hands on doing it.

So I baked a rectangle cake and carve the cake into the shape of a car. I also made a dent at the bottom of the car on both sides to fit in the wheels later.



At this stage, at least it does looks like the shape of a car. 1st stage passed! The next part is to cover it with fondant and decorating it with the car details. So I included the audi logo, the car number plate, the headlights, the windscreen, etc.

And here is the final results which I am really satisfied with for my first attempt in 3D car!



Check out the happy and surprised bro-in-law who did not know that he is "eating up" his new car for his birthday!



 Happy birthday Bro-in-law! Enjoy your ride in your new car!

Swimming cupcakes...

This is an order from Mrs Tay for her nephew who is part of a swimming club and he will be celebrating his birthday with his friends from the swimming club after their swimming practice. Therefore, she requested swimming cupcakes with a variation of the swim strokes on it. It was quite fun doing the cupcakes and I hope you are able to guess the strokes right!



Happy birthday Sherman! Hope you can swim like a fish!

Spaceship cake...

An order from my Da Jie for her friend Joanna's son. Her son Tyler loves spaceship and so requested for a spaceship cake.

The spaceship is made of inedible materials which are light and I wrapped them with aluminium foil and then fondant.

Hope Tyler had a wonderful time on space!

Ninja turtle cupcakes...

An order from Priscilla who previously ordered a set of shark cupcakes for her son's 5th birthday.

Hope Darius likes the cupcakes and enjoyed his birthday party!
