Decorating With Buttercream

Decorating cake with buttercream have never been my forte. In fact, if I could be bluntly honest, I find it quite intimidating :-P No matter how many time I practice, I just feel that my buttercream decorating skill is wayyyy below par. Those slight uneven cream or not sharp edges can really irk me at times. That is when my OCD goes to hyper drive! And I have to tell you, it's not a pretty feeling! Usually by the time I'm done with my buttercream decoration, I'll be truly drained! Just covering a cake with buttercream layer would take me hours! Yeah, I'm THAT petty! *chuckles* So you can imagine how many hours I usually take to finish covering & decorating a cake :-P

Any way, when I was requested by Ms. Hasnita to create her Chocolate Moist Cake, I was feeling rather 'daring' & decided to try something different. This was what I came up with ;-)

Chocolate Moist Cake With Chocolate Buttercream


To my dear Hasnita, sincere thanks for giving me the opportunity to create your cake & for your continuous support. I have to admit, I really had fun making your cake :-)

Thanks all for taking the time reading through my ramblings ;-) Much love to all of ya! ✗o✗o

Friendship

When I first met this bubbly group of gals, the first thing that struck me was how wonderful their friendship is :-) And I just love that about them! They share everything together - laughter, joy, sadness, everything!

Friendship is one of life's greatest treasures...It is to me. It's something I value deeply. So when I was asked by these lovely gals to create a birthday surprise for one of their best friend, Syikin, I was indeed over the moon with happiness & truly honored :-)

These are the cupcakes I created especially for dear Syikin...

Gosh! Call me sappy but I can't help but think of my dear friends while typing this post. It made me realize just how much I'm missing them. To all my dearest friends, no matter where you are, this is especially for you...


Best Kinds


The best kinds of people are warm and kind
They are always there and they never mind

The best kinds of people smile and embrace
They support you with strength and grace


The best kinds of people love and cherish

They lift you up when you're near to perish 
The best kinds of people share your joy
To laugh with you, to joke and enjoy


The best kinds of people stand up tall

No matter how hard they fall
The best kinds of people are honest and true
The best kind of person, my dear, is YOU.


Much love to all & I thank YOU for your friendship :-) It means so much to me even though we've never met & are just on-line friends. Have a lovely day all! ✗o✗o


Engagement Cupcakes

I have always loveeee making wedding/engagement goodies. I guess you could say that I'm a softie when it comes to lovey dovey things.Yea...yea...hate to admit it but I'm such a romantic fool *blush*

You can imagine then how excited I was when my dear friend, Ms. Nurul called me up, requesting that I make an engagement cupcakes for her. Nurul plan to present it to her friend who's getting engage. What a sweet gesture :-)

So excited I was about creating Nurul's goodies that I decided to take the plunge & try my hands on making some handmade fondant roses. Do bear in mind that I've NEVER done handmade fondant flowers before so this was a BIG step for me :-P

Thanks all for reading my post & I hope you've enjoyed your time browsing through my goodies photo :-)

Much love to all! ✗o✗o


Short Notice Wedding Cupcakes

Short notice orders always send me into a frenzy & cause ultimate panic attack! :-P You REALLY wouldn't want to see me during those times as I will 'magically' turn into a berserk person - hair flying in all directions, heart beating non-stop, running all over the house like a headless chicken & all! Ha! Ha! But really, I turn into such an ugly hag each time I receive last minute orders. Hence why I usually shy away from such orders :-P

However, I just can't deny Ms. Fauziana's last minute order when she called me up asking for some cupcakes. How could I say 'no' as it was for a very special occasion - a wedding! Now you know what a romantic fool I am, right? How could I say no to wedding goodies? Absolutely a no-no! :-P

Fauziana's request was for some Chocolate Moist Cupcakes with a pink & purple theme. And her other surprise was that she'll be picking it up at 3am! Yes, you've read it correctly. 3 am as in three in the morning :-P Understanding her dilemma in preparing the wedding & all, I agreed to help her out & come up with this set of cupcakes :-)

Pink & Purple Theme Cupcakes


To my dear Fauziana, thank you so much for your order & for allowing my goodies to grace the special occasion :-)

Thanks for reading & sending my love to all! ✗o✗o
