Darren's Full Moon Celebration

This is was my first order for a baby full moon celebration. My cousin Henny put her faith and trust in me to come up with something beautiful and unique for her lovely little boy.



She requested for chocolate and red velvet cupcakes with fondant decor. Everything you see in the photos was handmade by me except for the pacifier.





Everything turned out well except there was some drama with the fondant. I wanted to finish everything early so I put the fondant on top the night before and closed the lid. By the next morning, the fondant had started to melt a little and I was in panic mode. I then realised that the box had absolutely no ventilation as the box was handmade from wood with a glass cover top.! Luckily it wasn't too bad and we managed
to save most of it.




The result...cute and playful, just like little Darren. :)

Happy Birthday Kutsy!

This was specially made for my dear brother in law Kutz's birthday late last month.

Everything you see on the fondant represents who he is and what he wears. He loves his gold rolex, is crazy about white shoes, wears a gold crucifix and is always in a white t-shirt.




He also loves chocolate so what else but my favourite double chocolate chip topped with chocolate buttercream.:)


Happy Birthday Kutsy!

Happy Birthday Debby!

It was my cousin's birthday last week and I thought what wouldn't be better then to surprise her with her favourite double chocolate chip cupcakes. It was finished with chocolate buttercream and handmade heart shaped fondant and shiny green dragees.



I wrote the greeting with an edible pen; I always love a personal touch and it looks like a handwritten note.





Hope you enjoyed it Debs! :)

Yummy Mocha Night!

Hello all!

I have to say I've had quite a fruitful cupcake week and I hope this continues on! I had two birthday orders to complete but whilst doing that I decided to treat my family to a mocha chocolate cupcakes.

I made a mocha base topped off with chocolate cream cheese and mixed choc chips. It was super yummy to say the least!

Happy Birthday Tobias!

This post goes way back to the month of May!

It was my secretary's son's 3rd birthday and I offered to make him cupcakes for him to bring to school. His favourite flavour is chocolate so of course I tripled the choc dosage with a double chocolate chip base and chocolate butter cream on top.

His favourite theme is Power Rangers but unfortunately I couldn't find any toppers in the store (I've yet to master the art of fondant figurines :p) so we settled for Garfield.

Hope you enjoyed it Tobi!
