Beth & Jareds wedding cake

My long-time friend Beth wanted a cake with understated elegance that met her black and white themed wedding. Held in a small vineyard in North Nowra on NSW South Coast, we agreed on a 3-tiered round chocolate mud cake in white with black ribbon and simple white sugar roses atop of the cake. I wish you a world of happiness in your marriage Beth and Jared.




Pirate themed cake

Jett's 6th Birthday was celebrated in style with his friends enjoying a pirate themed chocolate mud cake. Layered with chocolate ganache, the whole cake is edible. Jett's eyes lit up when I delivered this. YUM!


Jason and Nicoles wedding

Nicole decided that she wanted a very pink wedding and showed me a picture of a similar cake. We made the bottom tier in caramel mud with two-chocolate ganache filling and light pink icing. The middle tier is dark chocolate mud in a lighter pink finish and the top tier is white chocolate mud in a white finish. The clear column is filled with fresh rose petals in dark and light pink, and swarovski crystals were sprinkled over each tier to give the cake some sparkle.

Weekend Markets: Picton and Castagne Day at Fairy Meadow

WOW! What a busy weekend. 500 cakes made and consumed for Picton markets and Castagne (Italian) Day at the Fraternity Club at Fairy Meadow. Caramel mud with milk chocolate ganache and honeycomb proved to be my most popular cake. Met loads of lovely people and had a great time! Thanks to Hubby, Julie, Robert, Mum and Nan for all of their help on the day!

Josh's 30th Birthday

One of my good friends Josh celebrated his 30th Birthday this weekend. Josh is a keen West Tigers fan, and loves white chocolate, so I created this cake for him made of white chocolate mud and filled with white chocolate ganache. Happy 30th Birthday Josh!
