Children's Favourite Characters

This is going to be a longer post than usual as I'm posting about my son's birthday cake.

This Cookie Monster Sesame Street Book is one of his favourite books.  It reads as follows:

C is for Cookie.

COOOOKIES! COOOOKIES! Best things to eat.

Chocolate cupcakes are also a treat.

Carrots taste good. Me like that crunch.

Corn on the cob makes very nice lunch.

Cucumbers are cool -- me can't get enough.

Cauliflower! Cabbages! Me LOVE that stuff!

Cookie Monster's crazy about cantaloupe, too.

Caramel is good but very hard to chew.

All these things delicious, but cookie's still the best.

Me give you one of the these and then me eat the rest.

Wasn't that fun? Thanks for eating with me.

And now that food's all gone...

Let's eat the letter C!!!

That's his favourite part of the book.  So ........that's what he got as his birthday cake.

 

And since mummy does fondant figurines as a hobby business, he gets other cartoon characters too.  A close up of Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

Winnie the Pooh and Tigger (in their toddler years just like my son)

He also loves Blue in Blue's Clues but Blue got damaged before he got onto the cake.  Here's a photo of him alone.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEITH!

Choo Choo!

Yes, I know it's corny to describe a train as 'choo choo' but this post is after all about a cake for a 1 year old boy.  And most people teach kids that trains are choo choo trains.  Do trains still make the choo choo sound now that it's running on electricity (LRT/Komuter) or diesel (KTM Berhad)?

Anyway, a client recently ordered this cake for her son's one year old birthday party.

Handbag Cake

I made this simple handbag cake for a client. 

Fondant Gymnast

My sister recently ordered 60 cupcakes for my niece's birthday.  Since my niece is into gymrama, I made a fondant gymnast doing a perfect split on the cupcake.  And, yes, of course my sister got a huge discount.  :  )

There are just 24 gymnast here.  I delivered the rest the day before and didn't manage to take a photo.

P.S. Sorry the photo is so bad, this photo was taken at night using flash.

For A Female Golfer

My friend requested this cake for her mum who's an avid golfer.

What I Wish To Do To My Fondant Figurines.....

....seriously that's what I wish I could do - give the uncooperative fondant figurines a big punch in the face!
