I was very excited when I was contacted to do cupcakes for the JSinSA 2012 Conference!!

They ordered chocolate cupcakes with chocolate butter icing and vanilla cupcakes with white vanilla butter icing for the conference delegates, topped with the HTML5 and CSS3 logos in edible print!

They also asked if I would make two six-packs of uber decadent cupcakes to give away as lucky draw prizes, so I made two different cupcakes and packaged them in two batches of six. I filled the sixpacks with Oreo cupcakes and my own Strawberry Heaven cupcakes! I would love to know who got them and what they thought of their prizes!

Andrea ordered a cake and cupcakes from me for little Henry’s first birthday party and asked for a blue and brown colour scheme. The vanilla cupcakes with blue vanilla butter icing were made to accompany a cake…

This is a square, three layer, chocolate cake sandwiched and iced with chocolate ganache. I then covered it with white sugarpaste and decorated it with sugarpaste squares in shades of blue and brown.

Andrea asked for four sugarpaste bears to sit on top of the cake, and I made them in four different poses and four different shades of brown. Three of the bears are on the front of the cake and one is on the back behind the blocks.

The five toy blocks spelling out Henry’s name are decorated sugarpaste squares that I glued to squares of chocolate cake using cream cheese icing!

I am rather pleased with this cake, I hope Andrea and her loved ones enjoyed it!

Thabang’s friends must LOVE her! She orders cupcakes from me quote often and they are always sent to someone for a special occasion!

This order was very special.

Daine has just graduated- or will be soon- and she ordered a batch of chocolate cupcakes for him. Half of them had a Nutella stuffing and half had fudge secret centres, and she asked that they be topped with 12 different sugarpaste decorations depicting Daine and his interests! The cricket bat, cricket ball and soccer ball I bought ready-made, the rest I made by hand.

Have you ever heard of a “Tache Bash”? I hadn’t, not until Michelle emailed me after finding me on Facebook, and told me she was arranging a “tache bash” for her husband’s birthday party.

A “tache bash” is a moustache-themed party!

If you’ve spent any time browsing sites like Pinterest or Tumblr, you’ll know that moustaches are far more than just facial hair these days! Tattoos, photo booth props, cookies, jewellery… you name it!

Michelle wanted a selection of sugarpaste moustaches to top a selection of four different cupcakes, and she wanted them wacky and colourful!

What do you think?

Michelle ordered chocolate chip cupcakes with chocolate butter icing, white chocolate chip cupcakes with Bar One ganache, chocolate and vanilla marble cupcakes with chocolate butter icing, and Snickers caramel cheesecake cupcakes with cream cheese icing!

AAAAARRRRGHHHHHH and yo-ho-ho!

Samantha ordered these vanilla cupcakes for her little boy’s birthday party!

Half of them were decorated with blue vanilla butter icing and little paper pirate flags, and for the other half I made sugarpaste pirate faces!
