Winter Themed 21st Birthday Cake

45 days to Christmas & this cake certainly put us in the X'mas mood!

HO HO HO!!!

How we made it

The cakes were 10" and 8" Blue Ombré vanilla cakes.

We covered the fondant snowflakes in sugar crystals and attached wires on some of the snowflakes so that they looked like they were exploding out of the cake.

Dalia made the figurines out of fondant and tylose powder. 

They were made a week in advance to give them time to firm up.

SANDCASTLE CAKE

We made a SANDCASTLE CAKE! 

Complete with mini slippers, buckets, seashells and windmills!

How we made it

First, we crumb coated the 2 Red Velvet cakes with vanilla butter cream. 

The bottom and top tiers were 8" and 6" inch respectively. 

Next, we covered the cakes with Mcvitie's Digestive biscuit crumbs. 

To get fine sand, we recommend using a food processor. 

For the design on the top tier, we used Loacker Quadratini Chocolate Wafers covered in buttercream and biscuit crumbs. 

To finish up the cake, we added the little fondant details (seashells, bucket, slippers, rocks), windmills

 and the "21" banner at the top. 

And Ryan Gosling approves. Hell yea.

Tennis Cake

Quite honestly this cake was extremely tiring to make and involved a lot of patience.

Here's why:

1. The tennis balls were made individually. That's right, Dalia rolled out tiny green balls and thin strips of white fondant to make those tiny buggers. 

2. You may think cutting letters out of fondant isn't a big deal. Let me tell you, it was an extremely long and painful process. Drove me cray cray. 

BUT, at the end of the day, we love how it turned out. I'd say we definitely ace-d it. 

Really makes it all worth it. Phew.

Gavin & Erica's Wedding Cake

True Love. 

It's something you don't see often, but we definitely felt it when Gavin & Erica tied the knot. It was an amazing wedding with lots of dancing, an impressive quick change by the bride & an unforgettable performance by none other than the groom himself (we've booked him for our weddings). 

And to top it all off, we were asked to make their wedding cake- how crazy is that? 

Gavin & Erica, if you're reading this, we'd like to thank you for trusting us and giving us the opportunity to do something so special. We love you guys!

Making the Cake 

We made Chocolate, Red Velvet & Vanilla Bean but only
managed to snap a picture of the Red Velvet :( 

To get the straight edges, we decided to go with Ganache instead of Buttercream.
Worked like a charm.

Quilting & Pearls 

The quilt pattern was made using a diamond impression mat & we used Wilton's pearls:

Alright, we shall leave you guys with more pictures of the cake & the wedding! Enjoy:)
