Felicity (Happiness)

Good day lovely people. :) I’m excited to share with you a recent collaboration that I am so very honoured to have participated in. 44 talented cake artists from across the globe have come together to celebrate the beautiful and sophisticated designs of Indian fashion. Each artist created a cake inspired by a haute couture Indian outfit that is typically worn for elegant occasions. One can see how these outfits can easily translate into a gorgeous cake design with their rich colors and intricate decorations. My saree inspiration provided, had deep regal purple and apricot colours with beautiful gold and silver appliqués, embroidery, and embellishments; along with pops of red beading and piping. I pulled those elements from the fashion piece and applied them to my cake design. Really enjoyed the challenge and results…and I hope you do too! You can see the complete collection here:

Christmas Lantern

I did a tutorial on this Christmas lantern inspired cake which was my contribution to the Christmas in Frostington collaboration for charity. Booklets are still up for sale on their website for many beautiful tutorials and delicious recipes!

Cozy Candles

Peace, Love and Joy. The holiday season is for sharing and I've created a free mini tutorial for these cozy candles.

Pink Ice

Probably my favourite of Winter Birthday cakes I've done. I just love the rustic feel to it and the pink sanding sugar really gave it a pretty icy effect. Hope you like it too :) xx

Winter Shimmer

This was created back in August for DIY wedding magazine. My palate given was ivory, shades of gray and pops of plum and eggplant. ...and with it being for their Winter issue I focused around the shimmer and glamour of the holidays and created metallic ombre sequinned tiers and floral elements that reminded me of a wintry bouquet. xx

Bells And Bows

This was included in Cake Central's 2013 December issue. Such a pretty issue. I love holiday cakes!!

Whimsical Reindeer

This design was included in Cake Central's 2013 December Issue. It was a gorgeous issue full of sparkle, bows, birds, bells and whimsical creations. I was excited about the theme as both of my favourite holiday elements were paired together, with them being reindeer silhouettes and snowflakes. I wanted to set out for a whimsical, magical, almost ethereal feeling to this design. I chose hexagons straight away; as to me they resemble snowflakes. I built a hexagon stand out of crown moulding to pull the whole design together. I used a mold that I had made from a tree ornament for the body of the reindeer. I brushed the reindeer and stand with a pearlized dust to give it that wintery sheen. Hope you like it. Thanks :)

Simple & Glamorous

I LOVE holiday cakes! ...and get really excited when I get a request for a holiday birthday cake. Inspiration is everywhere! I decided to do a simple yet festive glamorous design.

Wintry Celebration

This was my birthday cake from last week; first one I've ever made for myself and decided to practise the peonies I just learnt from Maggie Austin's Crafty class.xx

Wintry Stag

This is my favourite flavour combo of the season. Cherry eggnog cake with eggnog custard filling. Sooooo delicious! I tried an eggnog ganache but failed aha! Will experiment once again when I have a little more time because it was delicious too! xx

Christmas In Frostington Collaboration ~ Scrooge's Study

I have to say I’m so, so proud and grateful to have participated in this collaboration! The admin team that is running the show is absolutely amazing. They're patient, hard working and so very kind hearted. It started with a vision and they then had bakers and cake designers complete sugar pieces and then their talented graphic designers pieced them all together to create the beautiful, wintry, cheerful scene, known as Frostington Village. One stipulation was that each baker and cake designer had to submit either a recipe or tutorial along with their sugar piece. They then compiled those recipes and tutorials into booklets for the public to purchase. All the proceeds from the sales go toward their three nominated charities: Icing Smiles, Inc., Alzheimer’s Society and Australian Melanoma Research Foundation. All within the Spirit of Christmas…I think they’ve nailed it! You can purchase your booklets and raffle tickets here : http://christmasinfrostington.org/ There is also the option to donate as well should you not want to purchase. My contribution was Scrooge’s Study in the mansion on the Frostington hill. I had the best time creating him…as miniature modelling isn’t something I do often and knowing it was all for gracious causes. Very grateful for the opportunity. xx
