Morning Tea

Carls Birthday Sponge

Request: I just want strawberries, kiwifruit, chocolate and jam in the middle...and lots of cream!

Hope for our Sisters

This is going back a couple of months however, I still thought it would be important to share. I had the honour to donate some of my time and cupcakes to an event run in our local area called "Be Her Dignity Moonlight High Tea". Where they put on an exquisite high tea for many members of our community who came along to raise money for other sisters who had fallen victim to sexual abuse, war or simply tortured or abused for their gender or location they lived. This was inspired by 'Colour Sisterhood' where they represent a company of down to earth, everyday women who desire to make a difference and make the world a better place - in essence it is a foundation seeking to place value upon humanity; a story of unity and alliance. Check the out at http://thecoloursisterhood.com/ and read a little big more on what they're about.

We are Sisterhood.

Natalie's 21st: Alice in Wonderland

There has been a theme running around lately since 'Alice in Wonderland' came out at the cinemas. What could this theme be? Yep, you guessed it right! Alice in Wonderland!! It's been a huge theme for those coming up with a big birthday 18th's, 21st's, 30th's! I had a fantastic time creating a striped mud cake for Natalie! I also had the privilege of attending the birthday party as a...'cupcake!' yes, a cupcake, something different and unusual. But it was Alice in Wonderland...anything goes!
Here's what Natalie had to say..."Thanks to Este- Mae my Cake was the highlight of my night! I was so very much impressed with the creativity & craftmanship, it was exactly what I asked for. My guests connot believe how wonderful it looked & tasted! It's hard to find someone that will deliver an amazing looking cake as well as an amazing taste! Esther you have truely out done yourself & I will continue doing business with you for years to come. You have an amazing talent & you create such wonderful masterpieces. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making an exquisite finishing touch to a perfect night!"

Aren't these the BEST! Fun and creative I love what Style Garden has done above with the carefully selected vintage dishware - truly beautiful and original! And Iacoli & Mcallister below has done with the bright and colourful stands. Definitely worthy of your masterpieces baked in the kitchen.

As I was searching online the other day looking through my favourite forum 'Tastespotting' I came across these adorable cupcakes for valentines day. (I will look into who they were done by and post it soon) I might just have to give these ago!

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells...

Last year for the annual Christmas Carols held by City Church I ran a stall in the markets. So to get into the spirit of Christmas I found it only appropriate to make cupcakes to suite the occasion. Christmas trees and Snow men...naturally...



About to Pop! - Baby Shower

When your about to Pop that baby out at any moment, it is only appropriate to have a baby shower. And what better way to have it then your own little baby cupcakes wrapped all up in blankets! We were trying to think for weeks as to what we could do for her spectacular centre piece at the baby shower and wala! Here you have it cute little baby cupcakes. It was such an enjoyment to make. They have been a real big hit for those mother's to be...
