Dollar signs request - kek "paling mahal"

Alhamdulillah..I'm so happy today...my dearest bibik is back...phew..tak payah I nak terkejar2 or tercungap2 lagi...banyak kek kahwin due..tapi sementara kek masak I ambil kesempatan untuk update blog ni...by the way..sorry to dearest readers yesterday...coz maybe ada yg sempat melihat offensive remarks by our dearest Cik Nisa yg masih belum ubah perangai...and tq to Ainil...she made me aware of the deleting function...ha..ha..ha...actually I ni tak berapa pandai sgt in blogging...sebab tu if u all perasan, I tak pernah tukar layout my blog...However, sama2 lah kita berdoa supaya Cik Nisa kita diberi hidayah and petunjuk..tapi sebagai renungan buat semua...selangkah kita mendekati Allah...sepuluh langkah Allah akan mendekati kita...and begitulah sebaliknya..so sama2 lah kita cuba mencari hidayah Allah..kerana kita tidak pernah akan tahu bila kita akan dipanggil semula untuk bertemu dengan Pencipta kita...

Ok...let us talk about cake now...Hmmm...cuba teka apa yg I ingin paparkan this time...a bit of clue and I guess ramai yg dapat meneka apa yg ingin dipersembahkan kali ini...



Tapi kenapa pula dgn kunci BMW and "lian pow"...sebenarnya..this cake was a special request from my dear friend Theresa...not the one yg I buatkan swan cake tu....my new friend from wilton class...but as if mcm we all dah kenal lama..that's the best thing about being Malaysian...walaupun berlainan bangsa and agama kita masih boleh bersahabat baik..persahabatan tanpa sempadan. And I received the order few days before the delivery date...I called her up and terus gelakkan dia..coz Theresa ni juga buat cake...my comment was.."Theresa...u know what, org Melayu panggil ni sakit mim, alif, lam sin"..ha..ha..ha...but her replied was.."Eh kawan...I want a special cake and i know u r good with this kind of cake"...nak membodek I lah tu...She wanted a cake yg melambangkan kemewahan untuk birthday dua shabat baik dia..Jo and Jessie..and the two ladies hanya nampak dollar sign aje comment Theresa...so she ask me to come up with a design yg melambangkan kemewahan and Dollar sign...hmmmmm



Terus I terfikir nak buatkan kereta BMW...but two days before the baking day..Theresa hantar 3gambar yg dihantar oleh one of them...and ada special request untuk buat beg LV..I decided to do another designer bag..coz normally I tak suka tiru another person's cake..so being adventorous...I pilih beg Channel yg harus di " shapekan"..Ha..ha..ha..I guess mesti u all notice yg I tak pernah buat or belajar buathandbag cake...and the course i dengar quite mahal jugak...but bila dah ada yg request..I took it as a challenge...I had to do it by hook or by crook..and as usual I akan visualizekan apa yg perlu dibuat...bohong kalau cakap I takda perasaaan takut...takut salah potong and I dah kesuntukan masa...Alhamdulillah dapat juga i potongkan ikut shape yg I mahu..actually masa awal buat cake ni..I tengok buruknya..but my munchkin sentiasa bagi I dorongan...katanya do not worry, mesti akan jadi cantik kalau dah dihias...By the way, this cake was fully covered with fondant...first time a customer requested a full fondant covered cake...special request by the two ladies...ha..ha..ha...her comment was.."shikin..ini dua org kawan I kolot sikit...tapi mahu kek fondant..walaupun they all tak tahu sebut"..that's my friend Theresa..




Zip ni i buat manually tanpa guna sebarang mould...talinya pun...punyalah leceh nak dapat gulungan tali yg halus lepas tu harus dijalin untuk menjadi tali beg...ni yg buat I teringat nak dapat kan tool utk buat tali..tapi mahal pulak...dah tenguk dah..tapi sebab banyak gadget lain yg menjadi impian I, ketepikan dulu niat ni...yg lecehnya..ia harus digelek sama besar dan panjang..kadang dah dapat dah kehalusan yg i nak..putus pulak..so kenalah buat balik..



As for the buttons, I warnakan dgn warna edible silver which i bought from Cake Connection in PJ...



Kenapa pula ada kunci BMW and gold "lian pow" (sorry if i got the name wrong...I siap called my chinese friend tanya apa nama nya..sebab nak google cari imej yg sebenar) ni..?? Well, the BMW key selain dari menunjukkan simbol kemewahan..it also at the same time bagi indication to "BRING MORE WANG"...he..he..he..semuga bertambah prosper..and the gold lian pow also simbol kemewahan yg berterusan...semuga kedua2 mereka terus dilimpahkan rezeki yg melimpah ruah...;). As for the lian pow, actually I warnakan dgn gold color..but frust sebab warnanya tak licin...maybe after this i'll try a different technique pulak..



Ayam and tikus...kenapa pula ada haiwan2 ni...sebenarnya ini symbol tahun kelahiran kedua2 mereka...Jo tahun tikus..Jessie tahun ayam...so dibuatkan kedua2nya as if mereka sedang berbual sesama mereka...kan mereka berdua berkawan baik..lots of people tanya I mcm mana i boleh buat figurine from fondant..ada yg cakap if mereka buat, lain yg dibuat lain yg jadi...my answer is always..u just imagine as if u main dgn tanah liat waktu kecil2...jgn takut..buat aje..if tak jadi just lenyekkan balik semula...and lagi satu..don't expect things to be perfect masa first try...he..he..he..mcm nasihatkan diri I balik..;p

So here are the few angles of the handbag...before i present the whole handbag...



Oh ya, lupa pula..the "handbag tag" wishing the ladies a vey happy birthday...



Finally the whole handbag with all the gadgets...memang masa i mula2 buat kek ni..i nak semua kelihatan "mewah" sebagaimana yg diminta oleh Theresa...sebab tu i buatkan pelapik satin merah...from fondant of course yg ditaburi dgn manik emas...red brings luck to Chinese beliefs..and of course gold juga...lambang kemewahan...by the way, handbag tu I sapukan dengan pearl luster dust and satin merah disapukan dengan electric red...semuanya nampak berkilat and mewah...



I delivered the cake di restoran where they celebrated the birthday...sepanjang malam I tak boleh tidur..nak dengar komen dari Theresa and her friends...finally at 10 something Theresa sent me a message which made me feel as if i'm in 7th heaven...which made me boleh lelapkan mata terus...thank you to Theresa..i feel honoured to do this cake for you..coz i know it carries yr name also..and tq so much dear for the trust u hv in me...if only u knew...actually this was my first handbag cake..tq to u...and the two ladies...next year i'll do a convertible bmw cake ...Ha..ha..ha..my munchkin gave me a very nice comment..."It's so good that u know how to do a handbag cake..tak payah nak keluar duit beribu2 nak beli designer handbag.."..hmmmm...kena fikir balik semula ni...tak boleh nak tunjuk sangat bakat..nanti rugi..he..he...he...
