Daring Bakers Apology

Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Rock

Christmas box of four Cupcakes...chocolate fudge and Vanilla Vanilla.
My small boxes also comes with inserts for 8 or 4 cupcakes...White/gold boxes and Pink/cream...I love them they are just perfect for gift boxes.

Pediped Shoes

Pediped shoes are just the best shoes for toddlers and babies..they're just all the rage in hollywood most celebrity kids seem to be wearing them.
I was having such a hard time finding good shoes for my baby to wear since everything he wore kept dislodging it self and ending up on some supermarket floor..lost..ending in me having to pay for a new pair. Until I bought a pair of Pedipeds....Soft..pliable and even with my lil rascal swinging his feet away they never fell off his lil feet.

This was for an order, a Xmas gift from Pediped in Thailand...P.s Pediped can be found in Paragon etc...take it from me its definitely worth the money!!!

Strawberry Charlotte Shortcake

This cake is filled with strawberries layered with my special whipped cream on soft layers of shortcake. I wanted to decorate it differently so opted for a charlotte inspired styled cake. A gold ribbon was just the right adornment since this cake was an order for their dad's birthday.

Anya Hindmarch

This was an order for my neighbour. I must've been subconciously wanting that anya handbag when i was decorating this..hubby pointed out that the ribbons were oh so anyaish!!! I love purple flowers with chocolate frosting..goes so beautifully together.

New boxes

My new boxes have finally been printed!!!I love them they are so elegant,beautifully designed by a great graphic designer i owe my utmost thanks to. The boxes comes in two sizes with different inserts for cupcakes. The mini boxes are coming soon those are heavenly..Just looking at the boxes, I hope makes my cupcake customers as happy as they are eating them!Last but not least i have to thanks my dear friend Jump for helping me out with this box project...his ideas have proven invaluable!

Butterscotch Chantilly Crepe

Saturday night at home with nothing delicious for dessert...well that wasnt the case for us tonight. I made a light french crepe rolled it up with bananas, chantilly cream and homemade butterscotch sauce. We were going to take pictures of it sliced up...then realised that we both finished the crepes before we had taken the pictures... sinfully delicious

Strawberry Shortcake

My quest for the perfect strawberry shortcake recipe...I've been trying hard to find a recipe for japanese sponge or shortcake. After many trials and errors i think this may be closest..it's fluffy but a little different since it has crumbly edges, giving the cake some texture...I'll post some more pictures of my other shortcakes soon.

Assorted fruit cupcakes...New flavours peach melba, kiwi twist and mango passionfruit lime. Each are so delicious and fresh every cupcakes have fresh fruit folded into the batter.
My favorite is peach melba i used whipped cream and mascarpone as the frosting drizzled with raspberry puree.

Daring Bakers Tender Potatoe Bread Challenge

I had made bread before three times and all those times the bread turned out either under cooked, had no taste or extremely hard. When I read what this month's challenge was i was quite apprehensive.
I followed the recipe step by step only omitting the wheat flour ( which I thought I had bought but apparently did not)...
I must admit the bread turned out surprisingly like a crusty french baguette. Crunchy on the out side but soft with bits of potatoes hidden.
Great recipe one for keeps!

Lily Cupcakes

Purple cupcakes are so pretty...like lillies floating in a pond..

Thanks Giving

I know this doesnt have anything to do with cupcakes or cakes...but i just had to post some pictures of our thanksgiving turkey. It turned out delicious and was a great and memorable night with the family...Happy Thanks giving!

Baby Shower

This is my first time doing a baby shower cupcake order. It was so pretty and made me think back to last year when i had my baby.I made all the decorations by hand from fondant the night before..it was worth the effort the cupcakes turned out beautifully.

Xmas is Near

Christmas is near. These are gonna be part of my christmas gift boxes...with the reindeers and a xmas tree cupcake! I had so much fun making them today.All Are handmade.

Vanilla Sundae Cupcakes

Vanilla cupcake... vanilla frosting...chocolate fudge sauce and topped with a maraschino cherry. Delicious..I also made one with a chocolate cake base however i ate it before i had the chance to take any photos....

Rocky Road

Rocky road cupcakes with marsh mallows, chocolate chips and maltesers drizzled on top.

Red Velvet Cupcakes

I've always wanted to know how red velvet cake tasted like but quite frankly I never had the guts to try it out until now. I came across many recipes some adding bottles of red food colouring to the batter...Frankly that scared the ...out of me. Food coloring in vast amounts must be toxic!Or perhaps eating the cake might turn ur tongue red?

Well I made these cupcakes from a recipe that required the use of 2 tbsps of food colouring. They turned out pretty red once i sliced them in half they were moist and looked like velvet.

Taste wise they remind me of a cocoa cake.I think they'll make beautiful xmas cupcakes with ribbons tied around the paper cups.

Fancy Flip flops

These flip flops i made from icing fondant.
They were really fun to make.Vanilla cupcakes and Brown sugar and vanilla butter cream cupcakes.

Cupcake Stands

These are my new cupcake stands... they are perfectly cute!! Especially the pink with little crystal beading. Hubby bought it all the way from Sydney. It really makes cupcakes stand out...Really wish they would make it in all colours...

Tea time buddies

Strawberries and cream cupcakes are just perfect for afternoon tea parties. I made vanilla cupcakes and decorated then with my new wilton grass tip.It took some practicing to make unwilted grass...well some came out looking very unkept...a garden in need of some serious lawnmowing....

Pirates on Board

I made this chocolate fudge pirate ship cake for my son today. Tomorrow we will be celebrating his 1st birthday.

The sea surrounding the ship is banana cake with creamcheese buttercream frosting.To finish the piece i had to have Capt Jack Sparrow on board! Ships Ahoy!

Very pretty in pink

This was my first time using icing fondant...The results are pretty and cute.I hope it tastes as good as buttercream though.

Vanilla cupcakes always look good dressed with pink frosting. I don't know what it is but if you had cupcakes on a plate in all shades of pastels...i'd definitely go for the pink ones first. I love pink.

Bostini Cream Cake

I am officially a daring baker! I have completed my first baking challenge...Bostini Cream Cake.

This cake is consists of orange chiffon cake sitting on a bed of creamy custard and drizzled with warm chocolate sauce.

I really love custard especially with crumbles etc.. I have never tried it with chocolate sauce before and must say that they go together really well. Thankyou Mary of Alpineberry for finding a simple yet delicious dessert that can be made for a dinner party gathering or just to enjoy on your own!

I'll be making this cake again and perhaps next time be using some tropical fruit for the cake for an asian twist....looking forward to next months challenge!

Profiteroles

I love choux buns....these had three different fillings, vanilla icecream, light creme patissier and whipped cream. They were delicious. I dipped each in milk chocolate glaze and served it with dollops of vanilla icecream.
