April 2010 Weddings and Gifts

This one, customer asked for a plain fondant cake, no, not plain, she asked me not to put flowers on top of the cake, I imagine pale yellow or white with gold trimming roses would be perfect for this cake, I hope Sharifah will send me the photo later once she put the flowers of her choice.

My favourite for this month altho I think I could have done better, it's not perfect for me but my dear friend kind enough to say it's gorgeous as always. This one is more renyah than I thought but fun to make. I spent the whole night decorating 15pcs altogether. Blame the `video games live concert' I went to in KLCC. It was awesome I dont regret going. For video game freaks, check out this concert again next year. I promise u it's something different to enjoy. You can take the kids too, they'll enjoy it. I'm not so much a gamer but I love every bit of it. The concert finished at 11.30pm, 12 am I reached home and started to decorate this mini cakes until the next morning, and guess what? Mum in law (MIL) came to visit, no time to whine, went to the market, cooked laksa and bought some other stuffs to make my dining table look more inviting. Lucky MIL not the fussypot. She said, enough Norli, just go to sleep, and I did right after lunch while talking to her, can ah??

April 2010 Birthdays

Orange cake with buttercream
It's 2am in the morning, I just finished this last cake for today. I was thinking of some of my friends that I have to say no to for their orders. I wish I could make the cakes for your daughters but I'll be in kampung visiting my mother. I sooo look forward to it. Travelling with only my daughter this time, girls trip should be fun.

Barbie Butterfly

It's beginning to be popular order for this one. I'm too sleepy to write, otherwise it'd be fun to just let my fingers run thru the keyboard. One of the news that caught my attention is the global warming (ya ya..I feel it the most, I wait for my daughter everyday at school under the hot steamy sun, and it literally burns your brain). I think human should stop re-producing, do not bring anymore little ones, the earth not gonna be a nice place to live by the time they reach adulthood. My daughter said, she doesnt wanna get married, what more having children, I said, good for you darling. Well, before I start sleep-writting, I should say gnite all, enjoy the weekend, will I? sigh..

Handbag cake
My first fondant handbag, it's for a friend who's been my friend for many2 years, have a wonderful celebration with loved ones!

Today is not a happy day for me, but cakes make me happy, and this one does. Oh what the heck, it's a hard life and I'm tired. I'm glad my friend loves the cake, it's my job to make my customers happy. Unfortunately it's been my job to make everyone around me happy without realizing my emotion is running dry and sometimes it's just too much to swallow. My heart physically feels pain but eyy I'm sure in one way or another, each one of us suffers in a different way. I thank my best buddy for being there for me today, it would've been harder without you.
(March 21st, 9.25pm)

I must say sorry for the owner of this cake for not putting her daughter's name at the cake. The instruction wasn't clear to me and I should have asked. I hope she likes the cake anyway.


Heart-shape cake
To our beloved Suraya, we are going to celebrate her bday tomorrow, it was supposed to be today but the Mobility van is not available so postponed to tomorrow. I've already cooked spaghetti sauce and this cake is for her. I guess it will end up in the fridge first. To Sue, we pray for her recovery and hope for a miracle that one day she'll say hello to us again.

March 2010 cupcakes

More cupcakes

Jimbo cupcakes for a birthday at Gymboree, looking at the clown reminds me how time-consuming it is to make a figurine like this. I understand now why cakes with figurines are soooooo expensive when u see them at the shops, every little part needs to be done carefully and delicately.


Bday cuppies

March 2010 Weddings & Gifts


It's school holiday and my job begins! Everyone gets married and I get to do the cakes. This one took a long time to decorate, not because it's difficult (bukan kacang tanah, hee..), but because after wrapping the cake with fondant, I didn't know what to do with it. I decided to go to sleep and hoped I'd get a dream of how to decorate the cake and it worked. I woke up at 4 o'clock in the morning and the idea came pouring like heavy rain. This one is for my twins kindie teacher. A very nice girl who chooses pink and purple theme for her wedding. Congratulations Nadia, wishing you happily eva afta! :-)


A simple cake for a special wedding. Daniel and Molee, I'm so happy to be part of the occasion. The wedding reception went well. I saw most our nebors there, good time for catch up session. Molee looked gorgeous in her white dress and Daniel surely a proud man for the day. Congratulations Daniel and Molee. Here's to greener, cleaner and fresher side of the leaf ;-)
Jangan marah I copy your quote!

February Birthday cakes



I'm so happy that somebody like the girl-version of this cake and ordered one for her son. She asked for choc cake, but oh my, I didnt know doing the blocks for choc cake is so much much harder, it's because pieces from the choc cake will stick to the fondant and it's impossible to clean, this will be the last time I do choc cake for the blocks, after this only buttercake I can offer. I hope the owner of this cake is happy with the cake inside out. Thank you for the order.



Two chocolate cakes with choc topping, another popular order from customers.


This one, customer wanted orange cake with creamcheese and BEN 10 of course for her son.



Princess Ariel cake

I'm sure many little girls are big fans of Ariel. This girl Qistina is a very cute girl, I will put up her photo later. Hopefully her mum will send me ASAP. I finally get to do a disney character sitting on top of a rock. The one that interests me the most is tinkerbell. Hopefully there'll be customer asking for tinkerbell next time around.

February cupcakes


These two cupcakes are for Chinese New Year gift. I quite like the red, it's nice sometimes to see bright colours on my cuppies.

I get this order from a customer asking specifically for green theme. I hope they are ok with my design.



As usual Oreo cuppies popular demand



I like this cupcakes, the pics are from the customer and she gave me such a warm feedback. I appreciate that very much, tq!


A few more cupcakes from customers.
