Birthdays, Clowns and Spa!

First of all, I would like to apologise to my customers who called me in the morning these few days.. whose calls were not picked up.. I have very limited time to bake, make fondant toppers, flowers and such.. So, please send me a text message or an email. I will reply to you the soonest I can. Talking about replying, I realised that my emails to my Yahoo customers did not go directly to their Inbox, but to their Spam instead. I yo yo lah stay up to reply mails, kononnya nak efficient.. rupa2nya masuk Spam.. oh well, we try the best we can to be super good.. Yang penting kita berusaha.. and then tawakkal.. and jangan lupa bersyukur... (peringatan untuk diri sendiri sebetulnya..) I would like to start today's post with this Birthday cake, requested by Wendy. It is for her BF's dad who is so into clowns.. She is so creative in determining on how the clown cake to look like.. See the 6 clowns? It represents Roger's 60th birthday.. I just help materialize her cake.. Thanks Wendy for the order. Ooh.. The space in the middle is for her to place the 60 candles.

This Ultraman is a repeat design, but I just realised that it was never posted anywhere in my blog.. So, when I explain to my customers, they had a tough time imagining it. Anyways, I'm quite sure you know that there are many types of Ultraman.. My 3 y.o Iskandar is teaching me which is Gaia, Cosmos and etc.. So, if you know your son's favourite Ultraman, send me the pic, so I can follow the costume closely. Thanks much Intan for the order.

and sapa kata Upin & Ipin are for boys only.. My girls love Upin & Ipin.. Saira called to order Upin & Ipin for her 2 y.o Aisha.. I went a little bit over board over the flowers surrounding the cake.. yeah.. the dr told me I'm carrying a girl.. Probably that's why.. :-p

And saving the best for last.. A spaish bithday! Noreen called me to order a spa-ish bday cake for her two girls, Adilia and Airissa..(sedap nama.. ada harapan I kidnap nama ni..) . Sungguh beruntung budak2 sekarang.. Noreen brought them and their guests to Feffy's Kids Spa .. Read all about it here..

ooh,, and ini enter frame sekejap.. masuk under entry Birthday.. I ingat dia punya birthday, rupanya Zarina saja order for Tasha.. (Zarina selalu datang collect cakes.. and none for Tasha.. huk huk.. ni macam kes I .. bake cakes for ppl but none for my kids.. :-p) I yo yo la ingat bday Tasha sbb Zarina wanted a Hannah Montana theme.. with guitars and all.. and Zarina texted me the next day, kata Tasha tak nak share the cuppies with her friends at school! Haha.. A compliment to me, that is.. :-)

Lightning McQueen

Husna called me to order a Lightning McQueen cake for her son, Shareef Anis. She asked to see a sample of the cake, but there was none in my collection. I have baked Lightning McQueen cakes before, but I did not upload the picture.. My bad! The one in this blog was actually hand-drawn. At that time, I could not find a shop that could rent the Lightning McQueen tin... And yes.. I use a special tin to bake the character cakes yah.. Only sometimes I cut the cake to shape, like the No 1 cake, the ship cake or the aeroplane cake (yet to be uploaded.)

Standing Barbie in green and White Gown

Whenever there is a request for a Standing Barbie, I would usually get Mama Charq Jedi to do them, despite the fact I had attended a class with Mr Hau.. Mr Hau bukannya pakai Barbie, but doll... Doll yang main pacak jer.. so senang lah... (senang pun tak senang lah kan... senang cakap). And kaki Barbie kan panjang, so we need to bake 2.5kg butter cake or 2 kg choc moist, so that the cake covers up till the waist.

However, in the month of Ramadhan, Mama Charq Jedi is busy making Benji, and does not entertain character cakes. So, she gave me her tins(as usual... I selalu pinjam stuffs ngan Mama Charq aje, God Bless Mama Charq), and some pointers on how to stick the Barbie in.. She told me that she would come to help me stick the Barbie once I have decorated the skirt..

Tapi, I punya la malu ngan Mama Charq sbb my work was not as supperb as hers, so, I stucked the Barbie myself... (malu kat cikgu!). And here is the outcome of my first Standing Barbie cake.. And now, I look forward to do another one next week... Macam ketagih pulak... plus the fact that I can undress, twist and turn the Barbie around, I so like!

This green and white Barbie along with Disney Princess mocha cupcakes were sent to Kak Nisa's niece who is staying in Kota Damansara. Seriously, Kak Nisa, is a role model to me.. She would make a point to send cakes and cards to her beloved ones on their birthday or any special day no matter where she is.. Ooh... I heard she is back in KL now with a little one in the tummy! Congrats Kak Nisa! Take care and thanks much! xoxo!

Hey Mickey!

I know I mentioned I would not draw Mickey Mouse... on cupcakes... On cake.. I think the outcome is quite OK... tee hee hee.. Happy Birthday Yusuf Iman!

Khalil's Ferrari

Khalil is my nephew... My cousin's only son... OMG he is a brilliant boy... He is now 7 y.o.and he is so into cars! Ferrari is his favourite.. He can go on and on and on with the cylinders la.. powerla.. and I would be lost in the conversation.. (more like lost in translation)... and when he was ard 3... he knows most of the flags of the world... all the countries which I had trouble pronouncing, he pronounced them well! So, this was last year's cake,... I lupa nak upload.. sbb gambar ni mak dia yang amik.. and posted in my fb.. and many have asked me on a ferrari cake.. so, here it is.. and design ni, I followed closely the one Khalil likes. (promised Kak Nina to bring Khalil to fly kite... but the weather is just too hot!)<p>

Hello Kitty for Eiliyah

El ordered this Hello Kitty for Eiliyah... Jenuh I cari baju, pencil, pencil case budak2 ni... as a reference... then bila dah sudah...

Dania: where's the mulut

me: mana ada mulut

dania: adala...

me: NURIN!!!!! (on top of my lungs!)

me: got mulut or not?

Nurin: where got? see.... (showing pics..)...

the next day..... El came over...

el: tak de mulut eh?

me: nope... dah check.. tak de mulut... :-D

From Sao Paolo to Temerloh again

And this time, I delivered the cakes and cuppies myself... Of course, got tempted from Zubir who went the first time and his stories of the elephant sanctuary.. We didn't get to stop by the elephant sactuary though... but we did a little sight seeing on the way back, after eating the famous 'masak tempoyak ikan patin'... Well, Temerloh is known as Bandar Ikan Patin... :-)...

This time the package from Kak Nisa were for her niece - Puteri Amy Nabila and sister in-law, Amy Ezuna... To Mr Khairul and Kak Nisa, thanks much for this oppurtunity!

Thomas & Friends

Lina called to order Thomas & Friends for Thaqef's 3rd Birthday. I told her that I do not have the exact Thomas pan... but a train pan which I can convert into Thomas... So, this is Thomas, with his friends Percy and the other guy... (apa ntah nama dia... )

Ariff Hazim Turns 5!

And mom, Serina chose Spidey and spidey themed cuppies for his birthday. This is a different shape of Spidey if you notice. The other one I posted was the crawling spidey: see Areez's Superheroe Party. Happy Birthday Ariff Hazim! Many Happy Returns!

Little Mermaid for Dania

My second daughter, Dania turned 8 on November 20th, and wanted me to throw a party for her. Musim cuti sekolah kan.. Orang semua dah pergi holiday... and it was kinda last minute preparation. So, I just brought her to Artisan Cake Craft where I usually rent the novelty tin and got her to choose what she wants and she chose Ariel, the Little Mermaid. And mentang2 lah mak dia yang deco the cake, she wanted the lips to be pink instead of orange... Suka hati kau la Dania.... and also since it was a last minute thingy... I could not find a party planner to conduct the games, so I hired Nurin, and her friend Celine to organise it! The kids had fun and most importantly Dania enjoyed it! So, whoever needs help organising games for your kid's birthday, you can also call me yeah... They are 12 y.o. so their price is very reasonable *wink*

Power Puff Girls on Mini Cupcakes

I just realised that I do not have that many collections of cartoon characters for girls on mini cuppies... I do not count Elmo, Barney and Sponge Bob even though I've decorated those for many girls... as to me those are unisex characters... Minnie mouse tak aci jugak, as can only be decorated on regular cuppies. So, I was glad when Mum ordered PPG on mini cuppies on behalf of her friend.. Thanks much Mum... Sorry tak sempat jumpa.. (bawak Iskandar and Nurin pegi clinic).. Awak pun lari2 jugak kan, hari tu... :-)
