Calling all Star Wars fans.

You may remember earlier this year in February, I made a R2-D2 cake for a little boy called Bailey. Well this month it was his cousin Dylan's Birthday, and he has asked for a Yoda cake. I was pretty stressed about making Yoda, as I had no idea as to how I would make him, but in the end I was quite happy with the result. The best part, is that Dylan loved him :o)



























Yoda was chocolate mud cake, with vanilla & chocolate buttercream.

Hugs 'N' Stitches Cake

I made this cake 2 weeks ago. Inspired by the Hugs 'N' Stitches party range.

More Chocolatey Goodness!

Strawberry Malteaser Chocolate Cake

This was 2 layers of rich chocolate cake sandwiched with a chocolate malteaser mousse, covered in whipped milk chocolate ganache and panels, and filled with chocolate coated strawberries and more malteasers. YUMMO!

This was my first time making chocolate panels, and chocolate covered strawberries.






































Made for my good friend Jillian's Mum for her 60th Birthday.

Adam's 30th Birthday Cake.

I had been thinking of what sort of cake to make for Adam for quite a few months. I knew it had to be a white chocolate cake, but other than that, I had no idea. I saw a cake on someone elses blog a while ago, for a single tiered cake covered in kit-kats and m&m's, and thought it looked fun, and yummy. So I altered it to a 2 tiered, and added some stars etc to the top.

It is white chocolate mud cake, layered and covered with dark chocolate ganache, surrounded with kit-kat's, and covered in m&m's.

In total there is 3.15kg's of chocolate on and in this cake.

I am so happy with how it turned out, and that I managed to keep it a secret from him. he loved it.

This is what I ended up with.

Baby shower cupcakes

These are for a friend's baby shower tomorrow.

The cupcakes were based on the invites I made.

Rich chocolate cake, with very vanilla frosting, RTR icing discs and modelling paste feet.

Lightning McQueen

Oh, what a cake!

This was an order for my friend Annika's "Cars" obsessed little boy Cameron.

This was a job and a half for me, as I wasn't feeling the best, hadn't made a car cake before, and hadn't tackled red icing before. but, even with all of those things against me, I think it turned out ok. I'm sure Cameron thought it was a toy, as he kept taking the wheels on and off, and wasn't keen on anyone cutting it.

I added the wording on the board as a last minute thing, and painted the letters to match the lightning strike on the car.

Chocolate mud cake, with vanilla frosting. I used vita weet for the back wing, RTR icing details.

Chocolate Pig

The other day, I got home and there was a message on our answering machine from my hair dresser. She was requesting a cake in the shape of a pig for her boyfriend.

I started on the idea of doing a wild boar, (as her BF goes pigging), but we quickly decided it would make for an ugly cake. So after a quick phone call we decided on just a normal pig, done in chocolate.

So this is what I came up with.

Chocolate mud cake, w/ chocolate frosting. I made the eyes out of a mix of mud cake and frosting, rolled into balls, and covered in RTR icing.
