Chocolate Mania

Chocolate overload does not describe how chocolatey this cake really is! It was my dear cousin's birthday and she is not a fan of fondant, and specifically requested a fully chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream frosting. I knew right away I was going to enjoy making this cake because, of course, chocolate is my favourite ingredient. If I could eat chocolate without gaining any weight and cavities (wow those hurt), I would probably strike out any meals left. I topped this cake with Hannah's favourite cookie, Fudgeos! We all dove in, made a mess, and had a fabulous night! 



Below is a picture of all of us together, my dear family and precious to my life, the favourite 5, birthday girl in the middle. Naomi, Dileeni, Hannah, Moi, Anushka <3 
Happy 30th Birthday Hannah baby!

Baby Dedication Cake

For a beautiful little girl Isabelle on her dedication day to the church. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this special day by creating this cake for her. 







Birthday Cake

Happy Birthday to ME! Shamless you might think? Well...YES! I'd say so too! But at least I made myself a delicious chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream frosting. And since I am born on Valentine's day (oh my poor hubby) I had to go with the heart shaped cake. Took this wonderful treat with me to Marlowe's to enjoy a birthday dinner celebration with some close friends, what a night!



Couldn't wait to dig in :)

Figure Models

I took a course at Bonnie Gordon College over the weekend to learn how to make these beautiful figures. I was truly amazed at the wealth of knowledge I came out of there with. Our instructor Sally Bratt, owner of House of the Rising Cake was not only an expert, but inspirational. I learned so much from her in the short time I was there learning this new skill. I cannot wait to create another little figure!
