My first.....

My first buttercream class dengan Sammy...Tan See Fong's wife...masa register class, I was told this class untuk beginners..but bila masuk, semuanya pendekar-pendekar. I dgn cik abang I terkial2 dengan buttercream, org lain dah siap dgn hiasan mereka. Sedih sgt waktu tu, ada pula yg tunjuk muka "eiiiwww" kat kami berdua, maklumle nak sapukan krim pd kek pun terkial2 but kami jadikan ia sebagai pembakar semangat untuk terus menekan gear lebih tinggi lagi..bukan gear 2 or 3 tapi terus gear 10.



My first buttercream cake.....birthday cake for my brother...everything was done by me....cake ni saje aje untuk menenangkan dia....everybody in the family sure sedih when it comes to birthday...birthday without our darling mom memang very different...no birthday present...mak tak pernah lupa hadiah birthday untuk kami...but tak da lagi kami dapat doa panjang umur and warm birthday kisses from mak..

My very first fondant cake

This is the very first fondant cake yang i buat...tempahan by Aunty Theresa for her 22 wedding anniversary. This is her 2nd order and up till now I belum lagi dapat ketemu dgn this kind lady. Actually she ordered a moist choc cake and requested choc ganache topping, tapi tak sampai hati pulak. So I called her up and minta izin untuk present something very special for her 22nd anniversary.....wow 22 tahun....nowadays susah sgt nak jumpa org yg dapat mempertahankan perkahwinan mereka. Apa yg sering kita dengar ialah mereka yg beria-ia buat persediaan majlis perkahwinan, siap dengan wedding planner (bayaran untuk planner pun kadang2 dapat buat deposit beli rumah baru) and bermacam2 "gadget perkahwinan" lagi..tup2 dengar2 dah bercerai...alasan yg paling favorite...tiada sefahaman..or I baru realize I'm not in love with her / him....oh pleaseeee...



So back to the cake...I just imagine something romantic and sweet for her and hubby...i terus teringat pada cik sifu I..sape lagi kalau bukan Kak June...terus terbayang a pair of swans gliding on the cake..a pink and white cake...hati ni berdebar juga coz aunty theresa's fav color is black...pagi2 lagi dah bangun nak start project...puas cari fondant yg diuli malam tadi...akhirnya jumpa juga...bibik ku sayang dah masukkan dlm peti sejuk....uwaaaaa !!! Dah le gula icing limited..so kena uli balik.....and stock yang ada baru dibeli mlm tadi and qualitynya tak berapa bagus...ni kes emergency le...

Lupa pula..swan dua ekor tu I dah buat 2 ari sebelumnya..and my advise pd sape2 yg nak buat swan...siapkan lehernya banyak2...sbab lehernya very fragile and senang patah...so if patah senang ganti.....ha..ha..ha to those yg berminat..i masih lagi ada beberapa batang leher swan... Soalan cepumas my daughter, kenapa leher swan jantan lebih pendek dari swan betina...and tunduk pulak tu...my answer was..sebab husband selalu ikut cakap isteri...kih..kih..kih...hopefully my darling munckin tak baca post ni....

Aunty Theresa was delighted towith the cake...she was really happy...her comment i keep it to myself..nanti takut org kata i perasan pulak..but all in all i was so happy with my first fondant cake...especially when aunty theresa said...she wanted a special birthday cake for her hubby...at the end of this month...thank you dear for your trust in my work....
