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...

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

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

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 :PThe cake was my first ever sculpted cake and I learn a thing or two

You may be wondering: "what the heck?"... well just let me tell you the story and everything will be perfectly clear (I promise).This time I'll be posting about 4 cakes and very different themes.The first one is a cupcake that I made for a Flickr Throw Down, I didn't win but I was proud of it and also got many votes (wooohoo!!). The TD was about the space, and I'm not really into the space (I

I finally managed to make my favorite dessert, I was a bit hesitant after listening how complicated it could be to avoid cracks on the surface... and I DID IT! and without cracks!The cheesecake is very rich, which is great when you eat a piece but really bad if you wish to eat the whole thing (I wanted, but I didn't hehehe). I found the cherry topping was expensive at the supermarket so I decided

Last week I participated in a cupcake throwdown, the theme was about the seasons, and the idea: to represent each one of them on a cupcake.I didn't win, but it was fair enough, my competitor made some gorgeous cupcakes of some cute babies.I have to admit this was a difficult challenge, not because of the ideas I had for the cupcakes, but due to the weather, it was a really awful week to work on

Yesterday was a great day, why? well because finally the tempeture went below the 22 degrees and that meant only one thing to me "today is the day to use fondant" - wooohoooo!!!Recently I bought the book "50 Easy Party Cakes" from Debbie Brown (a veeery talented woman), I decided as a learning experience to make all the cakes I liked from the book, and I started with the Pony Stable.Making the

Yay! My first entry for Iron Cupcake Earth.The theme for this month was Summer Berries, I chose blackberries and to make my cupcake 100% summer I used lemon, orange and coconut too.I still kinda clueless of when I'm suppose to publish the recipe and all, but since I just finished my cupcakes I rather publish the recipe right now than forget it later :POh but before I post the recipe I want you to

Hi everyone... yes I know, has been a while since my last post, I was somewhat trapped with my day job issues and trying to figure out some stuff. But hey! I forgot baking is my outlet; I started baking and as soon as I started I wanted to finish, yeah, you may be wondering why... well because the rainy season in my country is hideous, it was so sad to see my fondant getting all shiny and wet due

What all those words have in common? They are part of the cakes I did this week... yes you are right, I was a bit busy hahaha (taking into consideration I have a day job :P)Well let's start, the first one is a Raisin Butter Cake with a green and yellow bow, I totally loved how those colors looked together. My mom was in love with the first bow I made, so she wanted a similar cake, but with more "

Again working with Classic Vanilla cupcakes, so yummy I can't stop using them :)This time I did Mr Ragamuffin, he is from Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl, he is a cutie when he is not trying to bite someones neck, since he used to be a vampire, but now he is only a toy.Ragamuffin is trying to stay on top of three cupcakes.This was made for my friend Scotty, who was hoping for a Tucan but I

Today I made some Classic Vanilla Cupcakes, yummmmyyyy, they are delicious!! I covered some of them with marshmallow fondant and then tried to create like a cupcake puzzle with Cheshire Cat.This was just my first attempt of Cheshire, I promise there will be more, and the result will be better... hopefully next time he will let us see his whole body xD

As I said days ago, I still had a lot of mud cake batter, I decided to make use of it. Made more cupcakes, covered them with sour cream ganache (which tastes like heaven) and then made some fondant decoration.Enjoy the pics :)

I wanted to make an Easter bunny but in the process I remembered a character that makes me laugh so hard... that I couldn't continue with the idea of an Easter bunny and I did a Raving Rabbit!How cool? hahaha, I know... my version is fatter but since it is the first time I do one, I won't complain, but I promise that in the future they will be more like the original one!

Found a recipe of Chocolate Mud Cake, and I had never done one before, so I decided to give it a try, but instead of making a whole cake I chose to do several cupcakes.I read the recipe, it served 8, so I doubled the recipe to make like 18 cupcakes... I ended having more than 30 and I still have batter in the freezer (will do a cake when I have time).The frosting is of peanut butter, but to be

This was my first fondant bow, and since my fondant is homemade I had to add C.M.C to my mix so the bows hold their shape, I still think I could have added more C.M.C... will do next time.Love the bright colors of the cake and the sparkles, the cake is a White Velvet Butter cake.

My sister came to me with a huge list of requirements for her 1st anniversary with her boyfriend, I was shocked because she is a Publicity Designer and should have (and I know she has) some designing sense... but that day she was crazy, she was asking me to use ALL the materials I have for cake decoration, she wanted me to incorporate them all in her square cake and yet she wanted the cake to be

This month was my mom's in law bday, and I decided to use a technique I saw the other day on Flickr: a cake full of stripes of different colors, but I also wanted to use my flower cutters and my candy jewels, so at the end I went half way with the stripes and intercepted them with flowers and my candy jewels.I made a careful choosing of the colors, because I wanted it to be grown up but not too

My brother wanted to give his girlfriend a cute cake, and he trusted me to do whatever I wanted in a small cake... I love when they let me xDI decided to use the pearl like candy that I recently bought and the a lovely pink for the fondant decorations. The cake was of three layers and filled with "dulce de leche" and strawberry jam.

This is a Buttermilk Country cake, what I love about this cake is its texture, is so dense but yet so light... is just a perfect blend for my bubblegum marshmallow fondant.I like the decoration, as the cake is simple, playful and almost elegant, only used 2 colors but played with them and their... let's say saturation.My client was happy with the cake and so was I.

Has been a while since my last post, but don't you dare to think I was laying in my bed staring at the ceiling =P In fact the last couple of weeks were pretty busy.Two weeks ago my aunt (not the same one of the clothing store) that lived in USA for a while was coming back to live in our gorgeous country again xD, our family was planning to throw her a welcome party, so I planned to make some of

I've always loved the way rolled fondant looks, yesterday I was planning to pay a visit to my aunt's new cloth store and she told me that my little cousin would be there waiting for me and my sister, was at that moment that I decided to make something cute for her.I went to the fridge and took out some rolled fondant that I made months ago for my boyfriend's bday cake, the colors were just

I recently learned that I love fairy cakes, I do, first they are magic and second they are cakes, so what else could you ask for?The other day, while feeding my love through some wonderful cupcakes sites I bumped with a marvelous recipe: Oh yeah!
