Almost one month later!

O M G !!! I cannot believe I made it into Cake Wrecks!!! and no less than into the Sunday Sweets, I feel so honored to be sharing a place with those amazing sugar artists!

I feel a bit sad I wasn't aware of it until today (thanks to a new friend that let me know I was featured on that site on Feb 28th!)

Aaaaah! I'm sooo happy!!!!

That's it for today, just felt the need to express my happiness :)

Ice Cream Flavors

Two posts about ice cream! This time is not the shape of the cake, but the flavor... mmm delicious. I made it for my mom's bday (I feel like lately I only work for my family - not complaining though).

This cake is a yellow cake with orange flavor, filled with pineapple and apricot jam, which I did, and I was proud of :) The buttercream used to frost the cake had pineapple flavor and the fondant... pineapple with orange... as I said, just like an ice cream.

My family was in love with my cake, and so was I, because I feel that with each new cake I've been improving in so many levels, and that makes me happy and proud of myself. And believe me, I'm quite a perfectionist but I see progress, so I'm happy and that won't mean I will stop trying to be better each day.

And now the reason why you visit my blog:





Thanks pretty people for reading my posts, hope to come back soon with a new project.

A bowl of ice cream or a cupcake?

This time I'll let you decide, is my cake an ice cream bowl or a cupcake?

Let me tell you, I was aiming for a cupcake, but I feel like the bottom of my cake is too rounded and looks more like a bowl... but still I like my cake and the colors are pretty sweet!

On the base of the cake I put some cookies and wrote "melly" on them, because the name of the girl is Starmelly... how clever? hehehe.

The cake is a yellow cake with almond extract, the buttercream has coconut and lemon flavor, delicious!

So, what do you think?





Thanks for reading! XOXO

What I've been doing - A quick summary

Hi everyone,

Thanks for being so nice and patient!

I'm going to summarize what I've been doing the last months, and after this, I hope to continue posting as frequently as I did before =)

At the end of September I did a Strawberry Shortcake, had so much fun with modeling. The cake was an All American Chocolate Cake filled with "dulce de leche":



Later last year I played with polymer clay and also tried to replicate my work on fondant:




And here is what I've been doing this year, enjoy! =)

And the latest, my pirate, which was a gift for my boyfriend (he loved it!):



Well ladies and gentlemen, this is it for now, but I'll be back soon!

XOXO

Has been a while!

Hello everyone!

Has been a while since my last post, but I will make it up to you soon, I've been working on some cool projects.

In the meantime I invite you to visit my new site > http://www.kensoven.com/

A Magical... Cat?

Well, yes, it can be considered a magical cat, but no, what I meant was a Magical Tree and a Cheshire Cat (^_^)

This week I was so stressed about the Cheshire Cat, I wanted to do it since last weekend... but come on! the cake was for this Saturday, so I had to wait until the last minute to make it and and be sure it was fresh :P

The cake was my first ever sculpted cake and I learn a thing or two about gravity... and about making cakes when I'm still awake so I can use the common sense and avoid some gravity issues I had. The cake was for a friend of a friend, and I told her a while ago I will send her some Red Velvet cupcakes so she could tell me if those were as good as the ones she had eaten, but I never really had the time to made them, soooo, I made the Cheshire Cat using Red Velvet cake <3
