Playing with eustomas

If you’ve been following this page since February, this cake may seem a little familiar. When people request for designs, they like to ‘choose from a catalogue’. But I try my best to create something new each time or at least change certain aspects of the design. I always give my 200% for all my projects but, I still always look back and think about how I can make it better.

Anyway, the bride, who happens to be my lovely friend from nursing school, Connie, asked for the pink and white cake with more gold! Of course, I had to whip out my gold leaf and gold dust. Also, if anyone’s curious, the flavour is also pink forest!!

Wish you all the best connie! ❤

Marie & Jonathan’s Wedding Cake

3 of my favourite things (if the rustic style can be considered as a “thing”) are probably, Rusticity, Roses and Raspberries. I especially adore dried roses and I absolutely would not know a world without them now.

This cake was created with Marie, the lovely bride. They had a ceramic cake topper which was assembled on-site which is why the top was left empty (although I kind of like it this way).

The cake layers are flavoured with earl grey tea and lemon and the cream is mildly scented with lavender. Too much lavender renders its flavour to be soapy. I love how the upward strokes of the cream lends it a really rustic look.

Pink & White Wedding Cake for Pei Ying & Jia Hong

This cake is so gorgeous that we need to give it its own post!

The lovely bride decided on a simple pink and white cake that we spruced up with trimmings of pistachios painted gold and some lush deep greens. We were so fortunate on the day that the flowers were purchased, there were these beautiful soft pink and white eustomas that we just knew the cake had to have because these flowers really reminded us of how elegant and soft spoken Pei Ying is, and thankfully fit the decor of the banquet hall too! Oh, and also, the cake is filled with a deliciously moist red velvet cake, vanilla cream cheese and raspberries wedged in between and covered in my favourite trusty old buttercream.
