Chocolate Box Cake

Chocolate fudge cake topped with Ferrero Rocher and handmade chocolates/cake balls.

Easter Cupcakes

Vanilla cupcakes with a buttercream 'rose' swirl and fondant toppers. Took these into work last week, and they went so quickly I didn't even get to try one myself! The cookies were equally popular.

Playing Card Cake

Inside was a vanilla sour cream cake, with the extra special buttercream icing recipe on CC. The topper was made a few days in advance out of fondant mixed with gumpaste, with skewers between the cards for support (and a way to attach it to the cake!). This was my first topsy turvy cake, and apart from a few small injuries (a serrated knife slices through skin rather easily >_>), and being up until 4am getting it finished, I think it turned out okay?

Pirate Ship Cake & Cupcakes

Chocolate pirate ship cake, chocolate cupcakes with white chocolate buttercream topping. The figures and decorations are all fondant (apart from the sea monsters, which were made from chewy sweets). Of it all, the little treasure chest was the most fun to make!

Chocolate Birthday Cake

Dark chocolate & strawberry cake filled with vanilla cream and fresh strawberries. Covered with chocolate buttercream and modelling chocolate roses/decorations.

Christmas Cupcakes

Chocolate & Vanilla cupcakes, topped with a variety of designs.

Mario Cake

Vanilla cake with jam & cream filling, covered in buttercream for a little one who doesn't like fondant. The lava is candy melts and piping gel, the goombas, mushrooms, coins and giant Bowser are all fondant. The castle is cake, covered with fondant.
