A Festive Welcome!

This week some very special friends are arriving from the USA for a "vacation", so I have made  a little gift they can enjoy on their travels during the festive season.

Twinkle, Twinkle.....

And the Christmas Cakes continue......

Stig......

Last week I was unaware of "STIG" but now I know him a little more intimately following a little research, moulding his torso and the infamous helmet. I really enjoyed this order for a new customer.

The cake itself is Lemon Mud, filled with white chocolate ganache, covered and decorated with fondant.

Happy 1st Birthday....Retro

A classic design for a little man's 1st Birthday.  The cake itself is mud iced with chocolate buttercream, and with Sydney's current warm weather (30 degree +) I pulled out my faithful buttercream suited for high humidity/heat.

 

To accompany the cake, 36 cupcakes were ordered in a classic colours and simple design.

 

A little more Christmas Cheer......

The final two Christmas Cakes.....(for this order)

Winter Wonderland

The completed order.......

Santa Claus is Coming to Town!

Christmas Cakes decorated in the classical colours of green, red and white.  Both cakes are to be sold at a local cafe/gift shop.

It's beginning to look alot like Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner and a local cafe/gift store has ordered a number of Christmas cakes to sell in their store.  I have  baked several cakes but now it's time to decorate.... here's a little peak.
