Football!

I made these cupcakes for one of my cell group member's son's birthday as a gift. The first time I saw this boy, he was only 3 years old. These cupcakes are for his 11th birthday. How time flies! He had a football party hence the request for a football themed cupcakes.

My First Fullmoon Order

A friend of mine ordered cupcakes from me to be given away for her son's fullmoon. This is by far my biggest order - more than 300 cupcakes to be packed in different packages. The good thing about this order is that it is done in stages. Besides, my dear friend M helped me out with the order. For those who are not familiar with the chinese culture, fullmoon is the celebration of the first month of newborn babies. :) Here are pictures of the baby theme cupcakes.

My friend was pleased with the results and said that most of her friends said that the cupcakes are very cute. My favourite of the lot is the booties. Thanks B for this order. Also thanks M for helping me. :)

A Fun Lesson at Cake Connection

I have been really busy for the past few weeks and hence no time to post. Anyway, I went for a class at Cake Connection, PJ, few weeks back to learn how to cover a cake with fondant. So far I have been reading and surfing the net to learn how to decorate cakes and cupcakes. I would say that the class was fun and I did learn quite a bit on how to cover a whole cake with fondant. The tips given by the instructor were also quite useful. Most important of all was that I went to this class with my good friends, EP & E. :) Here are some pictures of the finished product.

The design of the cake was determined by the instructor. :)
