A vase + flower

A while ago, my dear friend Winifred (Winifred Kristé Cake), gave me some of her beautifully crafted handmade wafer paper flowers. I cracked my brain to think of how to use them and finally had the right moment when SM asked me to bake her a birthday cake. These little projects always make me so happy! I took up pottery this year and sculpted cake into a vase and sent her flowers back to her in this cake vessel.

Christmas 2023 throwback

Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. The air is scented with warm baking and a fairytale-like spirit. The holiday cheer spreads joy and giving. And of course our perpetual internal state is Christmas. I’m already thinking of Christmas in June.
