Of all the places I have travelled to thus far, one small village in the Swiss Alps till this day holds my thoughts captive. The tiny village of Vals […]

This was made for a creative writer. I was told that "he still uses a fountain pen and ink in this era." No fountain pen here but a feather pen to up the drama. 😉

Inside: coconut cake, coconut Italian meringue buttercream, fresh pineapple compote

I confess that making character cakes is not somet

I confess that making character cakes is not something that brings me much joy; I prefer to play with textures, ingredients/materials, shapes and forms. Hence when my son requested for a Beyblade cake, I was kinda stumped. So I went straight to IG to scout for ideas. A cake from @jamscakes caught my eye and I decided to make one inspired by it.
This is also my first time frosting the whole cake with dark chocolate ganache. I think this may become my go-to cake covering for wedding cake. I like how easy it was to achieve a clean and sharp look!

So many techniques, so many types of materials, so many ideas, so much inspiration.

I will take it one step at a time. 💪

Back to where I started. These were the first things I sold. Those were made with a different recipe but equally tasty. I decided to walk down memory lane and baked these for my family just to linger longer in those memories. 😊

First attempt at a no-frosting three-tier fruit cake.
Bottom tier: Fresh yellow nectarine almond cake
Middle tier: Pineapple butter cake
Top tier: Orange cranberry cake

All three tiers smothered with fresh fruits and accented with gold flakes.
I hope the 90 year old birthday boy likes it!

Washing, checking and drying each fruit with care.

Washing, checking and drying each fruit with care. Before I started baking, I had no idea how much thought and effort goes into a cake from start to finish. And the "start" begins even before preheating the oven. 😛

I dare say, for each baker or cake designer, each step from ideation to delivery, is frequently met with excitement, uncertainty and self-doubt. The failed trials, split buttercream, wastages and conditions not within our control are usually not spoken about.
BUT a breakthrough after nights or weeks of trying a new method, a serendipitous discovery of new flavours combination or a word of encouragement and praise keeps us going.

So I'm full of gratitude to you who appreciates both the process and the product. Your order means more than the $$, it speaks of your belief in me and of your willingness to nurture a baker who's learning and improving. Thank you! 😘

Sometimes you just want something real and rustic.

Sometimes you just want something real and rustic. No fancy frosting or fondant to take away the pure taste of the ingredients, in this case, almond and sweet white peach. It needs no further embellishments other than a thin apricot glaze that allows it to shine, literally.

My first Frozen cake! It's never too late I guess.
Swipe to see the expression of a sweet little girl who's totally smitten with Elsa! I bake for moments like this.

Edit: I feel I need to give credit to @jasmineraecakes whom I've seen use rice paper in cake decoration. I was so intrigued and mesmerized by it, hence I started experimenting with it. And next I saw it being used on @sweetbloomcakes with a totally different feel. All you great cake designers are such an inspiration to me!

Salted Caramel Apple Crumble Cake.
This cake is made with my eldest daughter in mind. If she sees salted caramel anything on the menu, that will most likely be her choice. And apple crumble is her most requested dessert. Hence I made this cake on her birthday and my friend requested for this same cake again.

What is your favourite flavour combo?

Creating magic.

We've always known that we want things to be delicious without being complicated. Few good ingredients that combine into amazing flavours, just like the fireworks 🎇 created when Remy put both Strawberry and Cheese into his mouth (in "Ratatouille"). 😍

This is the most frequently requested flavour - Double Chocolate. Moist chocolate sponge frosted with the creamiest and chocolatiest Belgian Dark Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting. For textural contrast, we throw in a generous fistful of Belgian dark chocolate crunchy pearls between each layer of cake.

This flavour is inspired by a cookie I bought for my daughter from @folksandstories. Matcha and white chocolate. She thinks the matcha flavour can be more intense.

This is certainly not what I would consider a styled photo of the cake I've made but I'm putting it here for posterity sake.

The background - the fridge, whom my husband agreed to get, allowed me to indulge in cake artistry to a whole new level.
Through baking, I realised I'm able to have a creative outlet; it's merely changing the medium of art. In school it was pencil and paints, then I moved on to using my body in theatre, subsequently metals and stones in jewellery designing. Now my kitchen is my art studio, with cake and cookies as canvas and cream and chocolate as paints. Sometimes I even get to do mixed medium collage and art installation! 😜

To all you creatives (and myself), never stop experimenting!

What is your favourite type of frosting?
I like the flavour of cream cheese frosting as I find it more complex than the traditional butter cream. Here is our popular chocolate cake with dark chocolate cream cheese frosting. It's not too sweet and just slightly tangy.
