A "bunch of loves" for a wonderful Ummi....

Sorri for not updating this blog for soooo long..had been busy with my kek lapis for hari raya haji and also tempahan kek for hari raya...however, hope it's still not too late for me to wish all my muslim friends...Selamat hari raya haji @ qurban...talking about korban...korban bukan setakat korbankan lembu or kambing...and bukan setakat dlm bulan zulhijjah sahaja...dlm hidup kita banyak sungguh pengorbanan yg harus kita buat....tidak kira apa saja pengorbanan yg harus kita buat..buatlah dengan ikhlas dan kerana Allah...coz insyaAllah, setiap pengorbanan yg iklas akan memberi ketenangan kepada kita...

Ok..let's talk about cake...kek kali ini ditempah khas untuk ibu Aqilah (sekali lagi.....last month ditempah oleh Qilah sendiri sempena meraikan bday abah n ummi dia..yg jatuh pada tarikh yg sama tapi bulan berlainan...) but this time the cake was requested by their aunty...Erra...she requested to have "all the bunch of Hanim's loves" to be shown on the cake..her lovely kids....Amalina, Afina, Aqilah, Auzai, Rabiatul and Aqil..



This is my first hexagon cake....not haxagon actually..but bolehlah..he..he..Actually, at first nak buat semuanya fondant and every side of the cake jadi mcm bilik all the kids with different colors...however kena tukar plan..coz in this kind of weather, fondant jadi lembik...so susah nak handle piece by piece...lama juga duduk fikir...then suddenly teringat gambar yg I ambil waktu hantar kek swan dulu...so I decided to "reproduce" the picture ke atas cake..but of course with bits of changes...cake semestinya warna pink...warna favorite Hanim (qilah's ummi) and I letakkan bunga2 merah and yellow...tepi kek..i sulamkan dgn bunga2an kecil..and atas kek board i penuhi dgn daun2 kecil yg ditaburi dgn bunga2 kecil juga...the word "we love ummi" guna cutter and sengaja i buatkan "lubang2 jahitan" untuk mencerminkan kewanitaan...all in all..this cake represent the sweetness and the feminine side of a mother...and of course a motherly love...to be honesst, I really kagum dgn Hanim...she handles all the six kids alone tanpa sebarang bantuan dari maid...and me..tengah cuba adjust my life without a maid (my maid balik cuti kematian) and dikelilingi 4 org anak...and it's school holidays....he..he..he..semuga iman and kesabaran I kuat..kena belajar dari Hanim ni...;).





I suka sgt bila dapat abadikan all the six kids on the cake...puas rasa hati...to Erra..tq for the order...and pls..do not call me Puan....panggil makcik pun tak apa..coz to me...whenever refer me as puan...i rasa macam formal sgt...;) To Hanim...selamat hari ulangtahun...and semuga...u sekeluarga dirahmati Allah and dikurniakan kebahagiaan berpanjangan and semuga Amalina, Afinah, Aqilah, Auzai, Rabiatul dan Aqil membesar sebagai anak2 solleh and sollehah....by the way...maybe some of you tertanya2 yg lain semua nama mula dengan A kenapa Rabiatul lain..well her full name is Rabiatul Adawiyah..a very lovely name..semuga she grows up dgn semangat dan akhlak serikandi islam yg secantik namanya ini...



p/s : Actually dgn kek ini i sertakan sekali 3 batang lilin yg warnanya compliment dgn kek ni...why tiga? Coz memang untuk perempuan..lilin tak boleh lebih dari tiga...forever young..;)

Till we meet again...i'm so pack with my wedding cake in December...pada sesiapa yg ingin menempah wedding kek..please do it in advance...coz it seems..most of my dearest customers dah mula booking for next year...infact bulan 7/2010 pun i dah dapat tempahan....untuk cik andam Erin yg glamor satu Malaya.....another exciting proposal...semuga dipanjangkan umur...
