Green Wedding


Salam pada semua..smuga semuanya sihat especially in this extraordinary hot weather...do drink lots of plain water...and sabar banyak2...this hot weather really mempengaruhi emosi juga...;) Actually I'm hving a very short break from baking...terlalu penat sgt last week...ada lagi tempahan for this weekend and am working on the design...

This wedding cake was specially done for Nor Hidayah..and she had chosen white and green for her wedding theme...mula2 memang i rancang nak buat green and white theme aje..but bila tenguk banner kahwin dia dlm FB warna purple...apa lagi...terus terfikir nak buat bunga purple..3 different tones of purple..As I had told before...I love to play with colors and try to be different from normal wedding cake..yg normally warna putih and sarat dgn bunga2 krim..so I had chosen soft green as the main color of the cakes...sebab tu I always confirm with my customers on the color that they chose..and so far alhamdulillah most of my customers dah tahu my style..infact ada few in March yg excited with the color they have chosen ... very stunning color..infact one of them, Sis Yana said..let it be kak..I want something different and biar org takut nak makan coz of the color..guraunya...looking forward for the cakes in march...



Kek ni dua tingkat...and this time I decided to do bunga cherry blossom...eventhough nampak senan tapi ambil masa 2 hari suntuk untuk buat bunga ni..coz each type of flowers i kena buat at least 80 pieces and altogether rasanya altogether i buat nearly 600 pcs..biar lebih jgn kurang...

So bahagian bawah kek, I gunakan bunga2 besar and bahagian atas bunga2 kecil..tengah2 bunga untuk menambahkan seri. I pipekan royal icing and letakkan beads perak..begitu juga dgn bahagian tepi kek...my munchkin kata biar nampak elegant...as for the cream, i gunakan buttercream icing..so it won't melt. For bahagian atas, sengaja I tutup permukaannya dgn bunga2..



As for the pillars...i buat sendiri cz sebenarnya I don't really like to use kaki plastik tu...anybody tahu mana boleh pillars yg cantik and murah pls let me know...coz the one yg selalunya jual kat kedai kek semuanya yg plastik biasa...nak beli Wilton pillars..mahal pula harganya..yup, that's my dilemma coz in Melaka ni harga kek kahwin memang murah sgt if beli kat kedai and normally people will compare my price with harga dikedai..well, just to inform..I sendiri buat survey kat kedai2 kek di melaka..memang for untuk kek dua tingkat boleh dapat dgn harga RM150 but pls do remember..keknya kek sponge and hiasannya hanya bunga2 cream..and kena bayar lagi untuk harga pillars and delivery charges..wherelse my cake selalunya kek butter or choc for the basic price..and my flowers normally bunga fondant yg dibuat sendiri...Bukan nak kata apa, maybe our society in melaka belum biasa dgn this type of cake and to them wedding cake is not important... sebab tu, sebelum hantar I akan minta supaya disediakan tempat untuk wedding cake...coz to me..a wedding cake should be display pd tetamu..bukan setakat untuk dipotong sahaja..wedding cake should have a special place...Sometimes sedih juga, coz people rather pay high price untuk bekas hantaran...i was suprised when I was told ada set bekas hantaran yg harganya RM100+ untuk satu sahaja..just imgine if 11 dulang dah berapa? So kenapa when it comes to wedding cakes we are so berkira dgn harga...sebab tu bila ada yg call untuk buat tempahan sometimes I have to menolak dgn sopan when they wanted a very elegant cake full with fondant flowers but bila disebut harga mereka kata mahal and minta murah....Ha..ha..ha..I guess most of cake decorators will be having the same problem.




so back to this cake, it was delivered to Ayer Molek...bahagian bawah sekali memang I taburkan dgn bunga2 fondant untuk nampak lebih sweet lagi..tak sempat nak jumpa pengantin coz Nor sedang sibuk dgn persalinannya...so insyaAllah next time kita jumpa..to Nor and Amer semuga berbahagia hingga akhirat..dikurniakan zuriat soleh and solehah..banyak bersabar and bertolak ansur.
