Wedding cake for a drummer and a chef

Wedding_cake_drummer_chef

I made this 3-tier wedding cake for a lovely lady called Sally, and her fiancé Paul (Binzer).  Sally is a chef and food stylist, who does all the DIY at home, and Binzer is a drummer in a band.  Their two kids, Jake and Tilly are represented on the cake too – Jake loves birds and Tilly loves all things pink, and handbags!  I made little figurines of all of them on the cake – Binzer behind his drum kit, Sally in her chef’s hat holding a paintbrush, Jake with birds standing on his arms, and Tilly dressed in pink with a little handbag beside her.  They were all delighted with the cake, so mission accomplished!! :)

The cake itself was a 12-inch, 10-inch and 8-inch red velvet cake.  It was filled with white chocolate ganache, and covered in sugarpaste.  All of the handmade little figurines are completely edible.

Throw some chicken on the bbq!

Barbeque cake

I made this birthday cake for my brother David.  (Yes, I have 2 brothers with birthdays on the same day… and they’re not twins!)  He’s a great man for barbeques during the Summer, so I thought this one was very apt.  I handmade little chicken drumsticks, sausages and beef kebabs.  It’s very weird eating “meat” made out of sugar!!

The cake itself was a 8-inch chocolate sponge, filled with vanilla buttercream and covered with sugarpaste.  All the handmade decorations are completely edible.

Anyone for an ice-pop?

I made this birthday cake in the shape of an ice-pop for my brother Kevin.  Since we’re at the tail-end of Summer, I thought a summery cake would be nice.  I thought he’d appreciate how it looks like someone took a bite out of it, although I didn’t… I swear! 

The cake itself was a 10 x 4″ truffle cake (mixture of vanilla and chocolate sponge, and vanilla buttercream).

Tag Rugby Birthday Cake!

This cake was ordered by Stephen for his girlfriend’s 25th birthday.  She loves playing tag rugby, so he asked me to design a cake showing her and her three friends playing some rugby.  They all have their pink tags and socks, and names on the back of their shirts.  And of course the birthday girl, Jess, is scoring a try!

The cake itself is a 9 x 13-inch chocolate biscuit cake, covered with sugarpaste.  The little hand-made figurines are all completely edible.

Birthday cake for a soldier

Medal_baby_engagement_birthday_cake

This cake was ordered by Ellen for her fiancé’s birthday.  He has just received a medal in the army, they have just gotten engaged, and are expecting a baby!  Busy busy :) So all of these had to be shown on top of the cake.

The cake itself was an 8-inch chocolate biscuit cake, covered with sugarpaste.  All the handmade items on top are completely edible.
