Cake for My Dentist


I didn't really have enough time to prepare for this cake as my dentist ordered it 2 days prior to his party! He said "just do what you can do(in terms of design) in such a short notice".

The cupcakes are red velvet with special creamcheese frosting and the cake was ube cake with halaya fillings and covered with fondant.

My Mom's Surprise Birthday Cake!




Of all the cakes I've made, this is the most special one....I made this one for my mom's surprise 70th birthday party! She lives in Houston, Texas with my sister. When my sister threw in the idea of surprising our mom on her 7oth birthday and that she wanted me to make the cake, I knew the cake design should be something very elegant and yet simple to make. Since I will be making this in somebody else's kitchen (my niece kitchen in Houston!), I wouldn't have all my equipment and gadgets....but there was no way I was going to compromise my mom's cake for that reason!
.....I would love to talk about how it all happened and my mom's reaction....but I'll just sum it all up with my mom's comment while we were having breakfast the next morning...."that was the happiest moment of my life!" It's the sweetest thing to hear your mom say that....to know that my brother who also flew from Toronto, my sister and I were able to make that one memorable day in our mom's life!!!
As for me, it was also one weekend that I'm gonna cherish forever!

Guess Purse Cake/Tropical Theme Cake/Georgetown



Everything here is edible...oh, except for that umbrella which needed to be the real thing for best effect. But yah, even the scarf, the sunglasses and the coconut drink were edible!
