Happpy New year :) …

Happpy new year my lovelies…i am back from holidays…and back with a bang!!!

My sisters wedding went welll…and i shall post pictures of the cake soon…if you havent seen it on my facebook page yet, then go and check it out!!!! and while you are at it…Like my page

My Facebook Page

So like i said, I started the year with a bang!!! I landed on Friday morning and headed straight into the kitchen to start baking…why you ask…Well i had a hugeeee order IF you are from australia and follow NRL(National Rugby League) you will know who the Parramatta Eels are  

I think 2 days before i left i got this email asking me if i could make a cake for the Eels Legend Steve Edges..I dont think i could sleep on the plane because all i could do was try and focus on where to start and how to go on about it…I had to channel my inner architect because i had to make a cake that looked like the building which was going to be named after Steve Edges..

No time to get jet lagged…horrrriiidddd humidity and rain…3 days of nonstop working and i did it…when i delivered the cake a few Eel players and legends were all praises…[i did not recognise half of them, but my husband pointed out who is who]..it felt great…

and heres the feedback from the Eels

“It is AMAZING. Looks perfect and tastes great. Thanks so much! I’ve already given you a plug on twitter, it’ll be on Facebook and the website over the next 24 hours. Thanks again!”

and heres the link to the video montage that came on the national news my cake can be seen at 16sec and somewhere further on… once i get more pictures from the eels i shall post them oh and stay tuned coz theres soooo many great cakes i need to share…its been long…

Kyle and JackieO’s Big Fat Gypsy Wedding.

End of July I got a call asking me if I could make a cake for a huge media event. When i heard who it is for I nearly died of excitement!!!! 2DayFM is the biggest Radio Station in Australia and their breakfast show hosts, Kyle and JackieO are the top notch radio hosts…We regularly listen to them and my kids think they r hilarious (most of the times)

This cake was for Jackie and her husband Lee’s 10 year renewal BIG FAT GYPSY WEDDING style…so the brief of the cake was…BIG..tacky..pink..lights..dolls..and more tacky considering how much time i have put into perfecting my cakes, doing tacky was a lot of hardwork…but in the end it paid of…

Both Kyle and Jackie absolutely loved the cake and were extremely appreciative

and here are some pictures from the day…

Sydney Harbour Bridge Cake

Ros contacted me asking if I could make another Sydney Harbour Bridge cake for her Mum..

Now her mum did not want any mention of how old she was, but the significance here is that She was born the same year the Bridge was inaugurated if you know your history this should give you her age!!

Cake was carved using my delicious White chocolate mud cake. Every single item is Edible, except the flag.

Hi Rose,

Yes Mum loved the cake! Everyone was very impressed and thought the cake was
amazing. Here’s a photo of my mum just after she blew the candles out
standing with a granddaughter and a great granddaughter. All the guests had
a slice and there was one pylon left over which Mum took home.

Thanks for your wonderful work Rose.

Regards,
Ros
