Cupcake Tower of Kak Nani's

Kak Nani is my bestfriend elder sister.. This is ordered by Kak Ina's (the eldest) as a gift for Kak Nani.. super sweet kan ?? *love*

Kak Nani punyer wedding adalah sgt superb. Lawa giler. Serious terkedu kejap wkt tgk the interior deco. Terus berangan nak sebijik cenggitu... *dream on*

Since the very beginning, Kak Nani dh ckp she prefer to have cupcake tower sebab dia nak semua org boleh mkn kek tue nnt instead kalau buat kek tingkat2 tue tp nnt xde org mkn. She prefer buttercream sebab fondant is way too sweet. The idea is similar to one of the cuppies tower on Martha Stewart's website.

When we've agreed with the colour and everything..I need to construct the stand first laa kan. To ensure the cuppies n the cake will not terbalik wkt the cake cutting ceremony. So in order for me to do the cupcake stand.. I use the base of 22 inch cake board, 16 inch cake board for the middle tier and 12 inch for the top tier. Jenuhla ber-DIY kt rumah mlm tue sebab nk ensure the stand will stay strong. The lace mmg jenuh giler nk cari..I actually go to 3 diff shops just because nak cari lace yg berkenan kt hati. Wkt tue dh sgt cuak..what if I can't find one?? Sgt bersyukur sebab jumpa jugak akhirnya dkt the last shop in Shah Alam.

After tunggang terbalik dgn my mom n my dad..this is the outcome of the stand. Not perfect..but I'm happy with it sebab I'm an amateur. First time kot bwat stand nie~

For the cake n cuppies, Kak Nani want a mixture between Vanilla cuppies n Chocolate cuppies. However, for the main cake she want vanilla. The main cake adalah sgt unik.. sebab Kak Nani nak the giant cupcake for it with the initial of A & Y on top of it. Utk cuppies tue plak..every cuppies will have the love shape with their initial as well. In total.. the cuppies we use abt 100 pcs of them n one big giant cupcake.

This is at the backstage. After dh siap susun semua cuppies

Thanks to my dad for the great pic.

First time buat cupcake tower. Super cuak kot wkt Anis bgtau Kak Ina nk tempah cake dgn Diana. For Kak Nani's punyer wedding plak tuhh !! *nervous okehh :p* Hopefully she's satisfied with the outcome.

Selamat Pengantin Baru for Yus n Kak Nani...^_^




Khairina's Birthday ^_^

This cake is for lil Khairina's 5th Birthday. Khairina's birthday actually falls in Ramadhan..tp sebab nk celebrate kt kindie n ada few of her friends yg tgh belajar berpuasa..so postponed her celebs after raya. Khairina is actually my neighbour. Aunt Raja (her mother) order the cake through email dkt office.

Since Khairina really like aeroplane..that is why the edible image ada pic aeroplane with her name on it. Credit to my father sebab tlg designkan the ei for me. As usual..tmph EI mstla dgn kak lea. :)

Kek Khairina nie lain sket dr org lain sebab I've decided to ltk filling for all cakes frm now on. So for her cake I made a choc filling for it. Sebab the cake bermotifkan aeroplane.. I just put a lot of white clouds around it ^_^. Tak nak guna fondant sgt sebab the filling dh sweet n small kids x blh mkn sugar byk sgt kan?? Nnt hyper x tentu pasal plak~ :p


Comel kan? I'm glad both Khairina n Aunt Raja really likes the cake.

Cake: Chocolate Moist with Choc Filling
Icing: Buttercream

Kak Intan

Yeay !!! Wishlist termakbul.

Ordered by Kak Intan for an engagement and wedding. 1 set of 16 pcs cupcake and 1kg cake.

Actually, thanks to Kak Yani for making this wishlist of mine termakbul. Kak Yani yg pass order nie kt Diana sebab Kak Yani x dpt accept due to circumstances. Since I was free *at that point of time*, so Diana accept jerla~

Subhanallah... banyak sungguh dugaan untuk Diana siapkan this set of order. Dgn adik kena admit hospital, dengan a relative of mine passed away.. Alhamdulillah.. berjaya jugak siapkan. Tp lmbt sket delivernye. And.. terpaksala Diana guna gumpaste roses... Initially nk buat bunga ross sendiri from buttercream. Dah jd cenggini gayanya... harusla fikirkan alternative. I hope she likes it. Hope the pengantin also suka.

Sakit jiwa sungguh hendak melicinkan kek itu. Dah pakai air panas bagai.. x juga dia nak smooth and silky. Last2 guna sikat kek jerla. I'm still an amateur bila come to buttercream. Kalau fondant.. insya'Allah better sket. Takdela pro/expert... but much2 better compared to buttercream. Hahaha.. masuk bakul angkat sendiri.

Selamat Pengantin Baru to Nazim & Linda...

Konon laa.. nak jugak kek bentuk love.. Jenuh okay nak dptkan the shape. Last2 xde lekuk pun kt belakang tue. Pasrah jerla. Sudah lenguh meratakan. Theme colour dia pink + purple...

I'm still a bit disappointed over the fact that I didn't use the buttercream roses~ I hope there will be a second chance. *praying hard*

Garden Theme

Alololo... Kesian blog nie. Kena tinggal ehh.. blog lagi satu selalu jer tuan dia update. Gomen-nasai...

This order came from Kak Jasmine from Kota Kemuning. Dia cakap dia nak bagi utk her best friend. Memula igt nk buat sweet rosette mcm biasa.. but then macam just trying my luck.. so ask her whether I can do the Garden Theme ke x..?? Since she said okay.. so hehehe.. here goes. 

Still need a lot of improvement... Especially on the rumput part. Diana ter-over whip plak the cream. It turns out very soft.. should make it more stiff. Sebab.. bila pipe on the cupcake.. rumput Diana cam malu-malu laa plak.. asyik nk tersungkur jer kerjanya. Huhuhu...  Colour-wise pun Diana kena byk improve lg..Ohh.. if ada org wondering kenapa my bugs mcm x lengkap... I purposely did that.. Sebab Diana ada dengar, orang kata x boleh buat figurine of benda hidup exactly as it is. *nanti I look up for the hadith/ fatwa* Sebab tuela my lady bug x perfect.. my bee x de sayap etc...

However, alhamdulillah.. Kak Jasmine puas hati with the deco. I hope everything went well. Thanks for the order Kak Jasmine. It's been a pleasure.

Kak Jasmine order last week.. Tp Diana x sempat2 nk siapkan entry nie. Duk dlm draft jer.

Minta maaf yer, mmg akan slow sikit in terms of updates. I'm having my ACCA exams in a week time. Order still accept.. tp updates jer yg slow banyak sikit .. hehehe.. ampun.

Cake:- Chocolate Moist (16 of size S)
Icing:- Buttercream
Deco:- Garden + Bugs Figurine

zayana's

Assalamualaikum...


This order special sket.. because it was ordered by my junior in UK. She is currently in UK n dia order nie and mintak tlg delivered to her family in Subang Jaya.

Dia mintak personalised cupcake... it's to accommodate 4 family members.

For her lil bro.. dia mintak buat figurine mortar board, buku n scroll. Nt that he is graduating ker apa.. tp mcm nk bg good luck charm for him. For her other bro.. dia mintak buatkan sth yg related to a restaurant. Initial discussion, I thought of doing some sudu garfu kinda thing.. tp lps tue mcm dpt idea utk buat benda lain plak. So I did a figurine of lesung batu n knife... n also salt & pepper shaker tuhh. Well those items are essential kan?? Why I chose lesung batu n not blender?? Well.. to have a mix of modern + traditional. For her mom.. dia mintak simple jer. So bouquet of flowers + love. [ entah jadi entah tidak bouquet nyer.. :P] For her dad... dia cakap letak fruits jer... n she chose strawberry. Actually.. she asked for figurine jugak.. to represent her dad tgh renovate rumah... boleyh Diana luper. Sungguh2 luper. Dah smp dpn rumah dia.. br teringat. Ampunnnnnn Yan !!!! *sob*sob*

Since her dad mmg x blh makan manis... Diana kurangkan gula in both icing and cake. Gile2 punye slash laa..

Thanks Zayana for the order ^_^

Cake:- Chocolate moist cake
Topping:- Chocolate Ganache + Sugarpaste + Buttercream
Deco:- Personalised decoration @ figurine.

Hope she likes it. Alhamdulillah the family likes it.

p/s:- dah lama dah zayana order.. tp Diana yg x menyempat-nyempat nk buat entry. Gomennasai.

Engagement Cuppies

Assalamualaikum...

Thanks Aunt Yati for the order ^_^

She ordered a total of 3 sets of 25 pcs cuppies.

Tapi this set special sket laa sebab katanya untuk hantaran. Huhu.. to be honest, Diana fail sket kalau nak buat set hantaran tp nk buttercream. Mulala kepala ting tong..ting tong.. sebab x tau nk buat deco camner. Cuba kalau suruh buat fondant... hah.. laju jer saya menguli fondant itu. Hahahaha...

Since she requested for buttercream... so kenala minta tolong ibu untuk buatkan roses2 tuhh. Roses2 diana kalau buttercream.. cam xde rupa lagila. She requested for pink purple kind of colour.. so I just use burgundy nyer colour jerla.. wkt dlm piping bag.. nmpk colour tuhh okay~ Sekali bile dh letak buat roses nie dh jd darker shade plak dah. Haih....

Hopefully she likes it... *praying hard*

Lg 2 sets tue dia suruh deco simple2 jer.. sebab katanya untuk makan2 among family members jer pun. That one no pics taken. Dah lmbt dh wkt tuhh... so Diana just snap yg hantaran nie jerla.:P

cake:- Vanilla Buttercake
Icing:- Buttercream

flowers all da way





Those cupcakes were ordered by my neighbour. Aunt Raja.. Thanks.. katanya ada kenduri kesyukuran kt office. Okay... blank kejap~ Nak buat caner erk... Last2 buat lagila rosette ini. Cuma kali nie konon2 nya nak buat frame la menggunakan rosette kecik2 itu... tp mcm x berjaya sahaja attempt ku itew.. Nvm, boleh cuba lagi... ^_^










Those cuppies were ordered by aunt ros..also my neighbour. Katanya untuk makan2 kat hospital. Dia order 2 set of 25pcs. Bila dpt theme bebas nie payah betulla~ Nak buat design hapa pun x tau. Memula kononnya nk buat garden theme. As in nk buat rumput.. snail.. butterfly bagai. Tp mcm kurang rajin plak.. maka kesudahannya semua flowers jerla. Yg burgundy nyer theme tuhh mmg copy paste idea kak yani campur idea kak ita jugak. Ampun sifu2 sekalian~

Thanks for the order ^_^
