A mini, tall cake covered in dusky pink fondant and decorated with a white double flower. A great way to use up cake left overs, cut with a round cutter and spread a light layer of buttercream all over, and cover with fondant. It's a little bumpy but good enough to eat! :o)

Christmas is Coming!

I have been thinking of Christmas Cake designs
as the festive period is just around the corner,
& this is totally inspired from a
3 tiered snowflake cake by Lindy Smith
out of her book "To Inspire & Desire"
The Snowflakes are made out of fondant using patchwork cutters, and I
have got to say, they are not that easy to use!!!!
but I do like the result!

Mehndi Twist

A friend had asked if I could make a Mehndi/Henna inspired cupcake,
just for fun, and this is what I came up with.
I actually like how this looks.

Chocolate Brown & Pink Embossed Cupcake

This cupcake is a vanilla sponge topped with buttercream
and covered in a blanket of pink embossed fondant,
that has then had a dusting of lustre dust
and finished off with a pink & brown
handmade fondant flower.
This one is now one of my favourite designs.

Inspiration in Ruby & Cream

I named this cupcake Inspiration because I was inspired
by a good friend, Bev (SugarBloom Cupcakes)
if you haven't seen her work I advise you to go and check her Blog
you will find her link in My Favourites.
I took the design from my last cupcake (the green & purple one)
as I loved the embossing so much I copied it
and put it on this cupcake.

Green & Purple Embossed Cupcake

Just some cupcakes I have made to practice some new embossing mats out on. I love this one so feminine. I have painted the embossing a different shade to highlight it and also added some fondant flowers, where the embossed flower should be, so it looks like they are popping out! Then sprayed the whole cupcake with lustre.

Sacher Torte

A Sacher Torte Dessert Cake, so rich and chocolatey it tastes devine. Lovely by it's self or served with Creme Fraiche or Cream.
I actually made this one for my Huband and me, as it was our Wedding Anniversary and we both love it so much. The Chocolate Glaze over top is so thick and gorgeous.
I have decorated this with pastel coloured fondant flowers, scrolls, butterfly and dragees.
If you like chocolate you'll love this!
