My lovely bride Bridgette met with me last year to discuss her design of cake.
She has a love of cherrubs and brought with her a photo of a cake that she was wanting.
After a little research and visiting a few American sites I found a suitable lace cherrub to use for her design. Her cake was covered in beautiful white sugar paste and all the lace detailing had a white satin shimmer. All the pearls were hand made (no bead moulder used!) and hand piped pearl detailing on the sides of the cake also.
The venue room was the restuarant that overlooked the swimming pool and was indeed a beautiful room.
The design included a hexagon shaped cake and all 4 cakes were a different flavour.
The deisgn was beautiful and when I went a delivered and set the cake up there were a few oohs and ahhs from the various staff members of Versaces.

January 2012 Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to everyone, I hope you had a wonderfull Christmas and New Year.
This year I have many beautiful cakes to create and thank you for the support from all my brides and grooms to be.
I am also lookign foward to travelling to the U.K in May for the cakes international show that is hosted in Birmingham. I am also travelling with a group of other cake decorators from Brisbane and Toowoomba and together we will be visiting other cake makers too. Including Mitch Turner and Peggy Porschen in their cake studios in London. I am also looking foward to seeing my family and my 2 lovely brothers.
Cake Classes have now been listed right up to the end of August and I am offering a weeks worth of classes in the month of August. So if you are interstate and wanting to attend a weeks worth of classes starting with beginners classes and including a 2 tiered cake then please check my website for further details.
Channel 11 contacted me and asked for a simple designed cake with their logo to celebrate their first year of airing. My son and I visited the television studios up at Mt Cootha and I have attached the pictures of the cake.
I was amazed at all the different sets for the programs that they film there.
My husband Matt with the company he worked for, built a famous television set in the U.K which was for the Crystal Maze series and for those that remember that program you're probably 40+ years old and from the U.K.

Spencer and Rutherford Hand bag Cake
I was set a challenging task to re create a handbag from this beautiful designer, the guide lines were that the cake had to feed 40 and I had a choice of handbags to choose from.
The design I chose was beautiful with the colouring and detailing.
The cake involved royal icing stencilling, lace work, metallic piping and quite a bit of detailing and the cake looked realistic like the real bag.

As you can see I created a snow effect ski slope with modelled cute penguins.

Christmas every year is always a very busy time for me, with Library demonstrations, Christmas classes and Christmas cakes and more!
This year I taught 2 classes at Logan Hyperdome Library on Tuesday the 13th, the first one being a children's cupcake class in the morning followed by a teenage cupcake workshop in the afternoon.
I provide every thing for the class, including tools, frosting and sugarpaste and this year I took a collection box for my charity Ronald Macdonald House and thank you for your coin donations.
My thanks to the Library for hosting me and I hope the cupcakes were enjoyed by all.
On Wednesday the 14th I visited Logan village Library and taught an adults cupcake class workshop, the building I was in was almost 100 years old but thankfully had air conditioning.Again I met a friendly bunch of women and I hope you were pleased with your results.
