Little Teddy Bear

Here's the teddy bear. Hopefully I'll be able to make one that's as cute as Forever Friends teddy soon. Full story at the TeaRoom blog.

Booties are for birthdays too

Ladynina, here's the type of occasion you can consider ordering cuppies with the booties. :)

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!

I was actually booked for a wedding cupcake this week - BIL's younger sister's wedding in Macao. Yes! The cupcakes just flew 4 hours on the plane and they are now in Macao, waiting to be presented at dinner tomorrow night. Oh, I'm so proud of them. :) I hope they don't do so bad. Will post those picture when MC comes back with the pictures. I hope she comes back with the pictures.

So there were only 5 boxes of wedding cupcakes, I thought since wedding is Sunday, I wanted to bake the cupcake as late as I can, which I did on Thursday. Decorate Friday night, fly off Saturday early morning. I foresee help needed, so booked my little TeaRoom helper. Thanks to her, I saved a total of 6 hours. I actually paid her for the 6 hours of good job, let me start her with her first salary. :)

Later the week, more orders came in, I rejected 1 order due to time constraint and that order was a bit complicated. Then Rose wanted to order pudding and chocolate cake for her party. I had to turn down the chocolate cake order, sorry dear, really didn't have time, but I tried my very best to deliver the pudding at least. I hope she was able to get a nice chocolate cake from, Secret Recipe maybe.

Finally, SSB's order was placed. Never turn down her order. She was my first cupcake customer. That was back in Maxis gym days, she took a box of medium cupcakes then.

Here's her box of cupcake for her Mother's Day celebration. To view other pictures, go to my TeaRoom blog.

Besides paying my little helper (my cousin sister whom I've also booked for helping out at TeaRoom proper when it's open) I also offered her to bring home a small box of cupcake for her mum. I let her write her own wording on the heart. Not bad, I actually quite like her writing.

Here's her box of cupcake and a picture she took. Not bad eh.

Thanks for the support dear.

It was a comfort knowing that I've "achieved" something today. :p :)

More Apples...

Here are LP's cupcakes.

And her apples and oranges :)

Apples?

Fruit Seller,

Glad here's an occasion for you to make appearance LOL. And yes I do have apples.

Durian,... hmm... I'm still trying to think of a way... Will see. Hehe...

Cupcake meeting new people!

Got this order from a very nice customer. Have bee so considerate since the day she added me on MSN to inquire for a birthday cake for her friend's one year old boy. She finally settled with cupcakes. I just delivered this to her and she even apologized for being just perhaps 1 minute late. And her daughter who were with her in the car was soooo cute.

Happy Birthday SSB!

Happy birthday and hope you've had a great celebration. It was such a delight that the cupcakes can make an appearance on your birthday and glad they've also accompanied you throughout the year.

May your year be eventful and colourful, always cheerful and successful!

寿桃 for birthday cupcake

This was an order by my colleague. This was originally a full box of 16 medium cupcakes but she wanted more at the last minute. Since I couldn't bake more, but she needed to give a few to her client, I actually took out 5 of them from the big box. So it was sort of difficult to design and very difficult to arrange the cupcakes. Not to mention not having box of the correct size.

This was the best I can do. And on the cupcakes was my new 寿桃 design. I think there is a better way of making them actually.

Here is the making, with ready to roll icing:

Choose happiness...

Are you planning to go?

TD, thanks for the order. This is something special for you, extra "happiness". Have an awesome class!

Multi Flavoured Cupcakes

Made a few boxes of cupcakes for Little Bro's order and they are for his launch classes! His classes will be on Monday and Wednesday. If you happen to be there, let me know if you like these cupcakes.

Thank you for your support little bro.

Happy Valentine's Day

It's Valentine's Day! Made some chocolate chips, and some raisins cupcakes with brandy butter icing, topped with individually handmade sweet-hearts.

Hope you've had a great celebration. Should be better than last year ya. As for me, hmmm... don't really remember "celebrating" Valentine's Day at all actually. Now, it makes me wonder...

Okay, I can't remember... I suppose how the celebration went was not so important. The important thing is whether we are with our loved ones on this special day.

Then again, why is everyone making Valentine's Day a special one? It makes me wonder again if this is for commercial purposes. I heard that a dozen of roses cost RM150 on this very special day. Should have just order a box of specially made cupcakes from me for half the price.

So, even if you are single, Valentine's Day is a day you should enjoy too. Love should be celebrated no matter you are single or married/ dating. (at least you don't have to spend a lot of money buying gifts haha...)

Love everyone around you... and not just your girlfriend/boyfriend, husband/ wife.

May your everyday be as magical as Valentine's Day!

Cupcakes for Chinese New Year

Here are the CNY cupcakes again. It took me longer time to prepare three boxes of the CNY cupcakes, much longer than I would expect, so I didn't really have the energy and time to take that many pictures of the cupcakes.
