Pretty Cupcakes

How cute are these little cupcakes made for an office party decorated with clusters of sugar flowers!

We have a daily selection of cupcakes and always decorate our cupcakes with a small pink rose and some green leaves.  If you would like some other decoration then we would be happy to oblige of course.

Nellie Takes Classes

Here's a sweet little girl called Nellie who is a fan of the Cake Boss, she has a passion for cake decorating though had never tried it before.  Nellie came for a private lesson so that she could have some fun.

At first a little shy Nellie soon got engrossed in what she was doing and with great dexterity this 11 year old accomplished some wonderful piping and amazed me with how much detail she remembered and her ability to mimic perfectly every action I made.

Soon Nellie was making up her own designs and having fun decorating lots and lots of cupcakes, here are some of them.

Well done Nellie, you're a natural and I hope that you're not going to take my job away in a few years!  Looking forward to seeing you back in class.

Tea Pot Cake

Our tea pot cakes are becoming so popular as they are so perfect for summer tea parties, bridal and baby showers as well as birthdays of course.

Here purple was the theme, so we added bows and roses to the hand painted tea pot.

Here are the matching cupcakes also.

Pinkalicious Cupcake

For a pinkalicious birthday party this giant cupcake with matching cupcakes decorated in two tone pinks and browns.  Yum!

Antique Vision

For a 90th birthday we were asked to make something with an antique flair, pink roses and lots and lots of pearls.  

We also had to make 100 matching cupcakes in chocolate and salted caramel and vanilla and strawberry all decorated with mini roses.

Lucky Koi - The Dragon Restaurant, Burlington

This cake was designed for a small wedding.  The bride brought us a picture of a Chinese dish for us to hand paint the koi fish from.  This was one of the most difficult projects we've had in a long time.  Hand painting on cakes is one thing....copying an already complex piece of artwork is quite another!  We were given the colours red, orange and gold to work with.  

First I cut two fish shapes from white chocolate to overlay the fish shape onto the cake, to give some texture and a less flat finish.  I polished the white chocolate to give it a high sheen before painting with edible food colours in the same way as the dish was painted. I then painted gold details on the fish to bring out their scale pattern and to give a rich gold tone.

A sugar lotus blossom was dusted with the palest pink and added to the top of the cake.

Pink velvet cake with raspberry buttercream for the cake and red velvet cake with vanilla buttercream for the matching cupcakes.  In Chinese culture red and gold symbolize good luck.  We added white chocolate lotus blossoms dusted with a little pink edible colour.

Camera Problems

We created another array of cakes this week, Canada Day cupcakes, a 90th birthday cake with green and pink orchids, a purple birthday cake with lime and purple polka dot bow, springy stars, purple blossoms, a graduation cake of black and gold and last but not least a wedding cake with hand painting and sugar flowers in a bright array of beautiful garden colours.  The wedding cake also had a custom cake topper of the bride, groom and their bulldog.

Well, guess what?  My camera malfunctioned and I lost all the pictures.  I'm hoping that the clients will let me have some pictures of the cakes to share on this blog.

Music In Your Mouth

These little cupcakes were for piano students celebrating the last class of the year, a gift from their teacher.

All edible images were stuck into a swirl of delicious, pure butter, vanilla frosting.  What a way to start the summer holidays!

Testimonial

It's so wonderful when our clients are happy, after all, that is why we do what we do.  We have had the sweetest phone calls after customers have enjoyed afternoon tea, or letters and e-mails from those who have enjoyed our celebration cakes.  Of course we have those who come back day after day for our cupcakes.

Yesterday we had a lady pop in who hadn't been to our shop before and was excited to discover we sell cupcakes fresh daily and that she could come any time and enjoy them.  We were overjoyed to receive this e-mail this morning:

"Dear Lynne:

     I was in your shop today, and I must tell you... Those chocolate and vanilla cupcakes were fantastic!  My fiance especially loved the almond cupcake that you snuck in there.  The buttercream icing was excellent, and the chocolate wasn't overly sweet.  I don't think I'll have to travel to Westdale anymore for cupcakes!

Thank you so much, and you'll definately be seeing me again!

Sincerely,

Melissa"
