Inspiration for Drew and Sophie. And me... and you.

So two weeks ago my little brother and his tall, blonde, gorgeous, Amazonian girlfriend finally got engaged.

My mind immediately went to cakes (and dresses and shoes and hair and makeup…)

I really wish I could draw so I could just suck the ideas out of my brain and onto paper. But I cant, so until then, I have to use other people’s work as inspiration!

So Drewy and Sopho, here are some ideas!

Oh my golly goshkins - look at these! Cake Pops! Cake balls covered in chocolate! Genius I think!

How about cupcakes? You can literally do anything you like with them. Any flavor, any color, any size, any shape!
 
Rolled roses are so easy and look brilliant.
 

Its also hip to be square.  I think the square baby cakes look better covered in fondant rather than fluffy icing, but each to their own and baby cakes are easy to make look beautiful anyway!

 
Ok, thats it for now.  I'll see if i can draw some of my ideas and post them up here for you guys to have a look at.
 
Yay! My little brother is getting married!!

Happy 18th Sophie!

Hello all again!

Here is a look at Sue-from-work's Daughter's (Sophie) 18th Birthday cake!

I have chocolate colouring and I’m not afraid to use it! Or flick the coloured chocolate around my kitchen and then cover it in more chocolate! Everyone is a winner, especially me as its so much fun!


Enjoy!

Happy 16th Birthday Amy!

So this would be the first cake I’ve sold through a recommendation from someone else (make sense?)


It is my my standard chocolate cake with choc fudge frosting, choc shards and some truffles. My piping needs work but I really, REALLY love my silver cachous!

 
Hope it tasted good!
 
So I have two cakes ordered for next weekend, i best practice my piping...
 
Until then!

Welcome!

Hi guys, and welcome to Patty Cake, Patty Cake!

SO! I guess I just want to show you what I can do, what I have done and what I can do for you!

Without any further ado, my first models are my stock standard goodness  - Vanilla Cupcakes with Chocolate Fudge Frosting.

... I really like sprinkles too.

Enjoy!
