Toys for the Boys Cake

Let it Rip! This is the dialogue in the Anime Beyblade that signals the battle of Beyblades in the Bey Stadium.  I remember bringing my eldest son to a Beyblade competition in Edsa Shangrila Mall several years back.  In anticipation of the long line, we arrived way ahead of everyone else...the mall was still closed but, well, it's always best to be the first! The mall guards were accommodating enough to let us in...anything for our kids!

Well, having boys surely helps in a special way with cake projects that involves toys for the boys. :)  These Beyblade themed cakes were extra-ordinarily fun to make.  Time stood still when I held my brushes and started painting the designs on fondant...I just couldn't stop!

Cream Cheese Poundcake with buttercream icing and chocolate filling made up these fun-filled themed cakes. Kosher food grade colors and painting materials were used for the hand-painted designs.

Embroidered Blue & Teal Wedding Cake

This wedding cake was featured in 1000 Ideas For Decorating Cupcakes, Cookies & Cakes. A book published by Rockport Publishers / Quarry Books, USA for international circulation.  I love making fondant Calla Lily flowers.

Maltese Dog Cake

My First Wedding Cake

I made this special wedding cake in December of 2007 for a close friend.  I couldn’t thank him enough for trusting me with this cake project because  I haven’t had any formal training in cake decorating and fondant when he asked me to do this for them. All I had was the knowledge I got from books and internet, my guts, determination, willingness and faith in myself that anything I design in my mind will be executed by my hands. 

All 4 Cream Cheese Pound Cakes with Blueberry Filling  were covered in white fondant with textured burgundy band piped with royal icing beads. Cake tops were decorated with fondant mini calla lily flowers with fondant butterflies. I had the  cake stand custom-made to match the garden wedding reception theme.
