Engagement Mini Cake

Jun 21

These miniature cakes are inspired from the garden theme cupcakes and the rolled ribbon roses mini cakes. They were for my cousins engagement. Truth is, he requested for the 3R mini cakes but I couldn’t find the time to roll the roses. The last two weeks (this week included) was the most crazy ever! With my older sister flying to Southampton for a few months, my youngest sister starting her new job, my mom hurting her back, and datelines for the orders queuing side by side,  it was indeed very hectic weeks. Alhamdullilah, despite all that, I managed to get all things sorted out and make my clients happy :)

The theme for the engagement was … emm the wasn’t any theme actually. I was free to come out with any cake, any design that I have in mind. Having only a day and a half to complete the miniature cakes, I decided to do a simple decoration but still has that sweet look. Less is more, right?

Anyway, I couldn’t decide on the background. Does orange with white polka look better?

Or this one with white and small roses?

The mini cakes are fruit cakes with strawberry glaze, wrapped in vanilla flavoured fondant. Here are some close up views of the cakes.

And luckily, I managed to snap some photos of the cakes on the fully decorated ‘hantaran’ tray, seconds before they were transported to my aunt’s house.

…and yup, my favourite picture. The mini cakes with bite size hat cookies!

Double the taste, double the glam-ness! haha :D

I’ve got some nice and close-up pictures of the hat cookies..will be posting them soon, ya!

Happy viewing! :)

My first!..

Yup, my first 3-tier wedding cake! Alhamdulilah!! yeay! Covering large cake is a lot easier than covering mini cake. Smoothing large cakes is also a lot easier than I thought. The hampir-juling youtube and online ‘tutoring’  for covering large cakes has finally paid off! Since this is my first time, I didnt succeed in coming out with nice sharp edges around the cake like professionals do. During my second time, perhaps. heheh :P .  Whatever it is, I’m glad I manage to do this  and make my own large flowers too! No more first time after this! For large cakes that is. I still need to try stacking the cakes. Insyallah, a ‘real’ 3 tier-stacked- cake coming soon. :)

p/s: in case you are wondering, my post does not get shorter and shorter. I’m just short of time. :)
