Minecraft Creepy, Steve and Stampy Cat Birthday Cake

There was a TV program talking about all the popular video games since the first game was first invented. When I was a teenager I remember playing Bomberman, Super Mario and Tamagotchi. Many of the recent games have passed me by, and one I haven't played was Minecraft. The program said Minecraft is an educational tool schools use in children's projects, and it had shown children enjoying playing it in the classroom. It looks very fun. Although I havent tried the game, I have made the characters - Creepy, Steve and Stampy Cat - for Sebastian, Abitya and Dylan's birthday! :-D

The characters are so pixelated! : )

The game is made in blocks, so was the cake : ) I didn't stick the characters on the cake so the birthday boys could have some fun arranging them on the cake.

Céline Boston Tote Handbag Cake

When it was Karen's birthday, I tried to guess the design she would like for her birthday cake. I was guessing maybe jewellery or shoes cake, as she owns her online jewellery shop, she styles for photoshoots and she lives in fashion, so she surprised me by choosing a light beige Céline Boston Tote Handbag as the design! Her choice of cake design was so cool and it matches her style and personality very much :-D

The cake is lemon cake with lemon curd buttercream. This was my first time making a handbag cake, I was measuring and making templates to get the proportions/details right, it was very fun to make this cake, I felt like I was stitching up a real handbag! I hope people looking at the cake or pictures cannot believe it is an actual cake :-p

To make the cake more unique, I turned the logo of Ciaté Nail Polish into Karen's name : )

Strawberry Chocolate Rose Petal Cake ✿

A special design for someone special :) This was a cake I made for Sal's birthday, the rose petals were made of strawberry chocolate, inside was sponge cake layers with fresh cream and a rainbow of different coloured fruits. This is a design inspired by Cafe Pouchkine's Rose du Tsar and Tony Wong's Pink Rose. It took me a while to figure out how to make a cake like a big rose. :-O

The strawberry modelling chocolate needs to be rolled out to paper thin to create the rose petals effect,

and quite a lot of petals are needed to cover an 8 inches cake ;)

 The strawberry chocolate was not too sweet, I think it matched very well with the rainbow fruits inside. The rainbow colours from the fruits reminded me of Sal's Sesame Street Rainbow Birthday Cake from last year ❤.

The rose I made was fuller than Cafe Pouchkine's Rose du Tsar and Tony Wong's Pink Rose, I couldnt figure how they used so little petals.
