A Little Country Kitchen: July 2011

The begining of a little country kitchen......

I spent 8 years studying to be an architect, for which in return I have a very rewarding job!

Since finishing my studies I decided to find something new to learn outside the office..hence my journey into cake decoration and a new way to employ my creative skills!

So after some cake decorating lessons I am embarking upon making cakes for family, friends and anyone who is interested on my way!. I love a challenge and I really enjoy making them and it something completely different from my day job!

So this blog is an photographic portfolio of my journey, to give you an idea of what I have done/ maybe can do :-)

Wedding Fever

This was my first ever wedding cake that I did. It was for some friends for a wedding in York.

It had a white chocolate 6 inch topper cake, with white ganache filling. This was decorated with Ivory roses and Lustre. There was then also 70 cupcakes which were lemon curd, chocolate and red velevet and also vegan, gluten free and diabetic. This was a huge mission in one day but they looked amazing and the happy couple loved them thankfully :-)

Ahoy Sailor....Bert and Bernard get ready!

These were a pair of sugar sailor mice I was asked to do....I really enjoyed doing these they were lots of fun....and I was really please with them too!!! Characters rule!

Birthday Cake Season is upon us!!

This was a nice but simple cake for my friend Nita- for her littles boys 1st birthday. Very clean with a big ribbon and lots of blues :-)- Vanilla Sponge with Jam & Buttercream.
