Garden Themed Cupcakes

This was done for Rannie.  A very sweet mom who was throwing a surprised garden themed party for her daughter Nina at Botanic garden.  She gave me free reign of the design, which was music to my ears.




Nina's favourite colour is yellow,  while trying to work with a colourful theme, I try to incorporate as much yellow in the design as I can.




Garden snail and purple butterfly.


Some pretty handcrafted sugar flowers are also included in the design.
Very sweet bouquet of yellow blossom.

Ombré pink roses


Lovely purple hydrangea


How can we miss out watering can, mushroom, ladybug and bee!


 
Choice of cupcakes flavour are, chocolate cake with chocolate ganache, strawberry cake with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream, vanilla cake with passion fruit Swiss meringue buttercream.

Longevity (寿) cake and cupcakes

I am so honoured to be part of a big birthday celebration of Gladys' mum.  In total, I made one 10" cake and one hundred cupcakes for the event.  

The birthday cake is colour theme along auspicious red and gold with Chinese character 寿(Shou), longevity peach, floral motif and borders.

The cake choice is strawberry cake.  I baked this cake with fresh strawberry purée and the end result is light, moist and not too sweet.  To compliment this cake, I frosted it with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream and some fresh strawberry slices.

After covering the cake with fondant and assembled the floral motifs and border on the cake, I started painting the details in gold edible paint. 


Love the outcome of the cake, it looks absolutely majestic with red and gold!




Flavour for the cupcakes is lemon cake with lemon curd Swiss meringue buttercream and vanilla cake with passion fruit curd Swiss meringue buttercream.  
For design, to compliment the overall concept, 
 I have handcrafted the longevity Peach and cut out of mini version of 寿 (Shou).





Here are some shots of the cake and cupcakes taken during the celebration.
