Trial Run..

I made these cuppies for my nephew, Mirza's Red Class & my niece, Zara's Yellow Class of Al-Hidayah Pre School at Bukit Damansara ..I have to admit that it is not a very good first attempt at fondant cupcake. But worry not as I will be attending a Fondant Cupcake class this Saturday ! Anyway, these cuppies here were supposed to have little pink and yellow bears on them but after my poor attempt at decorating, the bears came out looking like CATS ! hehehe..having said that, I'm happy to say that I have found 2 reliable basic cupcake recipes..so with that sorted, I now just need to work on the decorating part ! Which is the most difficult !

Zarah's Order

My gym trainer ordered these ! I know it sounds really weird..but for someone who is obsessed about weight...Zarah is crazy about all things that are sweet to a distraction..of course if I tell her that I've had a cuppy or two, rest assured the 1 hour training session would make an army training session look like a walk in the park ! Nevertheless, thanks for your order, Zarah !

Tina's Order

Thank you, Tina ! for her order of brownies..the cuppies are little sweet gifts from Luscious Treats..

My 1st Miniature Cakes...

I love looking at pretty baby cakes. After going through and reading the book on 'baby cakes' by Julie Le Clerc, I was truly inspired. Having said that, I must admit that sometimes my inability to 'think out of the box' dampens my attempt to be creative. At the recent Miniature Cakes class held at CakeConnection Sdn.Bhd., I tried my hand at making miniature cakes using fondant as its decorating substance. As I listened to the instructor, Lynette..I started to have 2nd thoughts about the class as it was beginning to sound rather daunting for a 1st timer like me. But I went ahead with the class anyway...and managed to produce the above ! Nevermind that it took me 3 hours to complete two teeny weeny cakes but I was supersatisfied that I actually did it ! Would I attempt these baby cakes again ? Most definately ! although for the meantime it is likely that the designs would be very straightforward and simple...meanwhile, I shall continue to better myself !
