New Attempt

I received an order from my lovely neighbour to do half a dozen of non diary cupcakes to celebrate some friends birthday. No specific design were requested except for the initial of the 3 birthday “babies”.

I came across a nice vintage style of scrapbook design while thinking about the design I want to do for these cupcakes. I thought I would try to apply the same concept for these cupcakes design and try out painting on the fondant.

This is the 1st design layout with the initial of the birthday “babies” on the 3 cupcakes.

I particularly like this design.

These are the cupcakes with the initial

I want to put the “Happy birthday” wording on the cupcakes as well. With the 1st design I can’t find of a way to squeeze the wordings in.

After some thought, this is the final design that I came out with.  I am very glad that they like the cupcakes.

I hope you like the design as well.

Jungle Theme Birthday

Another privilege for me to do birthday cake and cupcakes for one of my girl friends son’s 1st birthday.

Jenn loves jungle theme cake & cupcakes. She gave me some animals she would love to have for the figurines. I did a number of animal figurine before but not the jungle theme cake. I was very excited that I am able to try out this theme.

The white chocolate mud top cutting cake with hippo and crocodile playing in the swamp.

            I managed to try out the fondant tree as a backdrop for the deco.

And these are the animals figurines on top of the dairy free, egg free, wheat free & gluten free chocolate mud cupcakes.

                                   The precious moments turtle :)

                              The cheeky monkey with the banana

                                                The shy hippo

                                                The cheerful zebra

This suppose to be a white tiger. I know it does not look really alike. Sorry :( And this suppose to be canary bird, sorry Jenn, I couldn’t come out a nice one for you.

                        This is my favourite – precious moments lion!

  The overall display of the cake and cupcakes for the birthday boy – Aiden

The rest of the cupcakes with the alphabets that form “happy birthday” are white chocolate mud cupcakes with white chocolate ganache filling.

 

Hope you had a wonderful birthday Aiden and hope you like the cake Jenn.

Vegie Tales Birthday Cuppies

I have the honour to made Josiah’s 1st birthday cupcakes. Josiah is just a few weeks older than Esrene, my daughter. Still remember when Lena and I were pregnant at the same time and counting down our days for delivery. Now our babies already turn 1. Time really flies!!

Anyway, Lena wants Vegie Tales characters for the cupcakes. This is Josiah’s favourite show. Lena gave me a list of characters in Vegie Tales that Josiah are familiar with. So here comes the Vegie Tales for the birthday boy!

                         “ The pirates who do nothing” top cutting cake

                       the back of the cake with the pirate map

                     accompany by 6 more Vegie Tale characters

Those cupcakes with Vegie Tales characters are diary, egg, wheat, gluten free chocolate mud cupcakes especially for the birthday boy.

This is the look of the cupcakes arrangement.

Below are some of the amazingly nice photos taken by Keng (Lena’s husband). Thanks a lot Keng for such a nice photos, you are indeed very good with photography.

Animal Parade Cuppies

This is a dated post. This order was 2 weeks ago. I was waiting for some photos from friends to get it posted as I didn’t manage to capture much photos for the cakes again!

Received an order from a loving mom from my mothers’ group to do some cupcakes for her son’s 1st birthday. She wanted different types of animals in the cupcakes, so I came out with 11 types of animals all together, I called these animal parade theme cupcakes :D

Regret to say that I didn’t have time to take much photos for these cupcakes. I had two orders to rush on the same day and was tie up with my professional work. These are the few cupcakes that I managed to capture during the birthday party itself.

These are marble cupcakes.

              There are happy penguins - inspired by Sue from Delectable              Cutie elephants - inspired by Weennee from Love-a-cupcakes                              and the hip hip hip, hippopotamus

             the lovely cows – inspired by Kylie Lambert from Le Cupcakes

                 the faithful doggy on the non diary chocolate mud cupcake

    the sweet Westie (a special request from the customer for her lovely sister)

       The cute sheepo inspired from Delectable. Thanks Crystal for the photo

                       the tired giraff – inspired by Dulce Decoracion

and the main character charming Prince Frog!!! (on the non diary chocolate mud cake)

                 The animals are in the parade on the 3 tiers cupcakes stand!!

            The wordings on the stars written “Happy Birthday Jonathan”

There are other animals figures but I didn’t mange to capture them all :(

I hope I got the chance to do the animal themes cupcakes again and capture them down.

By the way, Happy birthday Jonathan!!!
