Banner Cupcakes for Fullmoon Party

Decided to do something a little extra with cupcakes and decided, why not have banners to spice up the look eh?    Seen banners for cakes so I thought they could work for cupcakes as well ... and so right I was!

Quite a few of the blogger mommies are having a dragon year baby and its my pleasure to bake them some of my home created cupcakes.   This time round, its for Paik Ling's princess Kayley.    It must be a true joy to have 3 boys and then finally hit the gold with a princess ... yeay!!   Congrats again Paik Ling ;)





Baked vanilla cuppies to go with buttercream deco and fondant cut-outs in the shape of onesies, baby pram, milk bottle and also a horsie.   Pink and yellow is a good combination for girls, dont you think?

Below is a blue and yellow combination for baby Kelvin.   Those in FB would surely remember this cute lil fella.    Congrats again too to Kristie ;)




















Remember, you first saw banner cupcakes at Confections ;)   Hope over to see my other creations.

School Holiday Cupcakes

Its school holidays which means its FUN TIME for the kids!     Outings to the local zoo, by-the-stream picnics or a day at the mall is part and parcel of how we normally spend the holidays with the kids.    Too bad I still have a full time job and Bryan needs to stay home all day.  Will have to wait till the weekend before we take him out for a day trip somewhere (yet to decide, uuh!!)

















A friend of mine recommended another friend to try my cupcakes for a picnic party the school is planning on the last day of school before they break for the mid-year holidays.   No specific request but just cupcakes for both the boys & girls in kindy.

I had cars in mind for boys naturally and for the girls, I wanted to do some flower  and garden themed design ... but I had no idea how many girls or boys specifically they had, so I changed it to colorful sprinkles and stars instead, which can then suit either a boy or girl .. just in case all the cars are taken up!

















The mommy who came to collect the cupcakes was very excited to see this.  She told me that her boy would jump when he sees this!  And she also told me that she is also personally very excited and really liked the designs I made for her.

Actually this is my first time really using fondant to shape freehand.   I think they turned out ok ... they do indeed look like mini cars mah ... hehehe.   Hope they had a fun time picnic-ing in the park!!

Diwali Cupcakes


Diwali, more commonly known as Deepavali in Malaysia is the new year festival for Hindus around the world. Its a public holiday in Malaysia and its celebrated in a grand way for all celebrants of this festival. This batch of Diwali cupcakes were for my colleague who had a open-house lunch. Lunch was yummilicious!!! Someone commented that this design looks more like African new year ... oh well !!!

Another "Love" Cupcake

Got a request from an FB friend to bake a small batch for her church gathering. I think it was a very private wedding / engagement (not sure) and she wanted a design with some "love" motives in it. As she does not like stuff too sweet, I tried making them a little simple but still sweet-looking.

















Within 3 hrs or so, I received an sms from her saying "Hi! The cupcakes were a hit. Rich in butter n taste yet soft in texture. Teeny bit sweet for me but everyone loves it. Thanks Jo ;)"

It sure makes my day when your customers takes the time to give you their feedback and tell you how much they loved my bakes. Makes me motivated to do better and improve on my baking/cake decorating skills as well as try to improve on my recipe too.

Zoo Animals Cupcakes

There was an order previously for a pre-wedding dinner and I made a lovely batch of purple cupcakes. The mother in law of the bride loved it so much that she ordered a batch of cupcakes for her 2 grandsons that also enjoyed the wedding cupcakes so much! As she is already 70++, she does not know what design she wanted for her grandkids, so I make a batch with Ben 10 theme. As expected, the boys were over the moon!

The following week, they went to a bakery and the grandma wanted to buy them some cakes to enjoy again, but the boys said that they prefer the Ben 10 ones wor .... oh how I wish I could hug & kiss them .. wuahahahaha!
















So here was another for their afternoon tea. Made them simpler with less icing so decided that the zoo animals theme would be best. Still looks cute but with minimal icing.

Princess Cupcakes

















A colleague of mine wanted to surprise her niece with a princess themed cupcakes for her 5th birthday. The lil girl was really happy to see the pretty cupcakes (so said the aunty la!) and they are now looking forward to the elder niece's birthday in Aug as they cant wait to order the next batch! But I am challenged to come up with a female version of Ben 10 (and its not Gwen ya!!) .... so Im scratching my head now .. hahaha.

Am thankful for her support :)

Mickey Mouse Cake

One of my all time favourite cartoon, Mickey Mouse!!! Love it to bits even at this ripe old age (LOL) and when my ex-colleague asked me if I could do one for her son's 5th birthday .. I quickly accepted it and to make sure I had the deal sealed, I even gave her a discount before she could even say "let me think about it" ... LOL!!!! Coincidentally, her son's name is also Brian but spelt with an "i" whilst my Bryan is spelt with a "y".


















Another vanilla butter cake with buttericing all over Mickey's head with lemon flavouring. This Mickey surely smells fresh!!

Sharing with you another Mickey cake which I did last year for my Bryan's 3rd birthday and looking at it both ... I really hope to believe that my cake decorating skills have actually improved, dont you think? Feels really good!

Cake for Full Moon


It was a baby boy's full moon dinner and this cake was sent all the way to Seremban for the said occasion. A lovely buttery vanilla cake base topped with lemon butter icing flavour. I used the Wilton pan which was a gift from my aunt when she came back from US. Its so cheap over there compared to a similar pan that costs more than Rm100 over here ... ridiculous rite? Certainly hope they liked the cake.
