Trying a handmade rose

So I was playing around and thought id make a handmade fondant rose. This was my 1st attempt at it, was quite pleased with the result! (icing and edges of rose have pink edible glitter on)

Chasing Butterflies

Pink sparkly buttercream on vanilla sponge with handmade edible butterflies. I think these would be fab for a wedding.

Easter Cookies

Here are my 1st attempt at making Easter cookies... cute little chick, a bunny & an egg. Had great fun with these!!!

Cookies!!

Butterfly butter cookies - very yummy indeed!!
This was my 1st attempt at making cookies, quite pleased with how they came out although the icing could be a little better.

More fondant cupcakes

All decorations handmade by myself. I had fun making these! :)

New piping bag!

Got a wider nozzle for my piping bag (eventually - I have no idea why these things are so hard to come across!) so thought Id try it out along with my new flower cutters & pink foil cases!

Pink Blossom

These would be perfect for any girlie party or wedding. Or even just with a cup of tea for an afternoon snack. Pretty handmade sugarpaste flowers on white fondant icing.

Sweetie Cupcakes

Jellybean cupcakes, complete with buttercream frosting & sugar sprinkles (made by using some food colourig on sugar) perfect for kids parties... yum yum!

Butterfly Cupcake

Vanilla sponge cupcake with buttercream icing and a pretty pink icing butterfly. Perfect for any girl big or small!!

My ideal cake!!

So... if I could have the perfect cake this would be it! I love pink & brown combo & polka dots (can you tell?! lol) It's choc fudge cake inside, and I just went with the flow designing it. I made the bow at the top out of icing, but I must say nail extentions & icing really don't mix!!!

Purple Polka Dot & Coordinating Cupcakes!

My first 2 tier cake! Went for a purple theme with polka dot ribbon, and hand made icing stars on wire. I also make a few matching cupcakes to go with.

Choc-tastic!

I went all out and made some delicious choc fudge cupcakes tonight & oh.my.god, they are AMAZING!! Probably should've used a bit more choc in the buttercream to make it a bit darker, but still tastes great. Made some pink hearts and flowers to go on top and co-ordinate with the pink cases. Yum yum yummy!

Baby Boys Christening Cake...

I just had a vision & had to make it. Am really pleased with the finished result. For my 2nd cake anyway. 8" cake, baby blue icing stars and topped with a cute pair of blue baby booties.

Girlie Cupcakes...

Well I couldn't stay away from them for long! Well, I had to test out my new hot pink & white polka dot cases!! ;) These are vanilla sponge & buttercream with sugar sprinkles & pink flowers & some ones with pink buttercream & silver sugar balls. Perfect for a girlie party.

My 1st Cake!!

Moving on from cupcakes (FINALLY!) I wanted to try and make and decorate proper cake. I made a victoria sponge and covered it in white and pink polka dot icing, some ribbon and a matching pink feather. I love pink & I love polka dots so this would be my perfect cake!!
Am really pleased with my efforts & it tasted amazing, even if I do say so myself ;)

Cupcake Crazy...

Ok I think I'm going a little cupcake crazy here but had some ingredients left over & was rather hungry so decided to make these. Same principle as the previous ones but pink shimmery hearts instead of stars. And teeny red edible hearts as a sprinkle. These would be perfect for Valentines day!

One for the boys....

Seeing as Im pink obsessed I thought I'd better make something for the boys. Again, I used my fav vanilla sponge recipie from one of may clee cadmans books & a yummy vanilla buttercream topping. I made the stars from flowerpaste and used a coating of snowflake lustre to make them shimmer. I'm really pleased with how these came out and I LOVE the silver cases too!

Second attempt...

My second attempt at making cupcakes & I used a glacier icing on vanilla sponge. Again, I don't think they turned out too bad. I didn't make the toppers for these though, I cheated & bought them from Asda.

My First Cupcakes...

So, I decided to give baking a try. It's something that I've always wanted to do but never really had the guts. I thought I'd start off with some vanilla cupcakes, with vanilla buttercream icing. I made the little butterflies myself using flowerpaste. Don't think they turned out too bad for a 1st attempt & they certainly tasted yummy!!
