White Chocolate and Berries Wedding cake


this cake was made for one of my managers on her wedding day. I had so much fun making this cake as it was very different from a lot of the cakes I have made in the past.

It involved a LOT of white chocolate as the cake is a white chocolate mud cake that was then covered in white chocolate gnache with white chocolate panels around the cake. I then filled up the
space left over with strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. It had the most wonderful aroma, all I wanted to do was plant my face into it and start chewing.

Heart's Wedding cake


I made this cake for My Friends Corinda and Tristan. I have known Corinda y whole life and she actually shares my brothers birthday.

It is a chocolate mud cake iced with fondant icing. I also piped hearts on the sides of the cake and there were some dusted blue roses on the top.



Star Cake


This was a cake that I made for Jezz's 30th birthday, it was a huge effort as myself and his best friend organised a surprise party for him. I had to make the cake in secret and put both the cake and Jezz in the car to go to his mates house with out Jezz realising that anything was going on.

It is a white chocolate mud cake with his favourite colours pastel pink and blue plus some edible glitter.

Chocolate Sailing Ship


This cake was for my Dad's 60th Birthday.

It is a chocolate devils food cake covered in dark and white chocolate.

I originally started piping the outline of the ship onto the cake and then my piping bag broke and I ended up with just a massive blob of white chocolate on the top of the cake.

Then I decided that it would just be easier to cut away the excess white chocolate from the top of the cake and carve the shape of the Ship out of the chocolate.

It was very successful in the end.

Gerbera's

 
Taya's 21st Birthday cake

this is another white chocolate cake (yummy) iced with fondant and then decorated with icing flowers which took a long time to make.

This one was very special as whenever I went to see Taya or she came to see me during high school we would buy each other a gerbera and give them to one another. 

Corset Cake


another 21st birthday cake this time for Nolly.

This was a white choc mud cake covered with fondant icing and metallic wire for the lacing to give it an extra bit of zazzle!
I used a touch of royal icing and finished it off with some edible glitter.


Cat Cake


This is Rhiannon's 21st Birthday cake.

It was a Choc Devils food cake base with a fondant icing base as well as some edible glitter sprinkled over it.

The beautiful cat on top was not an icing sculpture but a lovely ceramic sculpture.

Blues Clues


This cake I made for Jezz for his 32nd birthday.

He absolutely loves blues clues and I secretly brought a tin online and created this cake as a surprise birthday pressie for him.

It was the first cake in a long time that I used royal icing and flooding rather than the normal fondant icing. It is my fave white choc and caramel mud cake.

Bumblee bee cake
