Fuschia and Gold Theme Cupcakes
I wish I had better pictures of these cupcakes, but I took them at night in my guest room which doesn't have the most flattering lighting. I made two separate orders of these cuppies for two separate days over the weekend. It was a mix of chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, and the bride wanted a fushia pink and gold theme. I blogged about the sampler box quite a number of months ago.
I didn't get to take any pictures of it on the tier, as the bride's friend came to pick up the cupcakes very early in the morning on both days, so they arranged it themselves at the venue. Although I heard the guests quite enjoyed them, so that's good for me to know! :)
Pearls, Roses and All Things Glorious
These has to be probably the most elaborate cupcakes I've ever made. But the credit is not all mine, as the client gave me photographs from the internet of the designs she liked. So I copied some of them, and I have to admit it looks almost the same!
She chose my signature flavours which were the Dark Decadence, Southern Belle and Choco Nutter. The wedding was located at Marina Bay area, so there was a gorgeous view of the Marina Bay Sands.
Everything you see is edible! The hubby wasn't quite, but I assured him everything was made of sugar! :)
Pink Themed Cuppies and a Chocolate Cake
A lovely couple ordered these cuppies and cake for their wedding over the weekend in Nicoy Island. Chocolate is their favourite, so the cupcakes were chocolate with vanilla buttercream and the cake was good old chocolate with chocolate icing. They had a pink theme, and they were going to put pink roses on top of the cake.
They picked up the cakes last week in a big plastic box and off they went to the wedding. However, I heard a little drama ensued as the boat crew wouldn't let them carry it onboard the boat so they had to check it in. As you can imagine, that was a big no no. Apparently all the cupcakes flipped and the icing was ruined. Luckily, one of their friends managed to bring over some icing at the last minute and the chef on the island fixed everything up for them.
Oh well these things happen! :)

My 1st Malaysian Wedding @ Sime Darby Convention Hall
It was my childhood friend's wedding in KL, and she asked me to bake some mini cuppies for her cocktail reception. I made them for her a wedding gift, and just kept it simple with red and yellow swirls, topped with edible gold beads.
I made Tiramisu and Red Velvet as the flavours. And u know what, most of it was gobbled up! How lovely is that. ;)
P.S. I know half the cupcakes are gone in the photos, but I forgot to take some while setting up. So by the time I got there to attend the dinner, this was the result.
First Haute Couture Cupcakes Order
I prepared these babies last night for a pick up this morning. They looked so pretty in the morning!
However after a couple of hours, I noticed the black pearls sorta "bleeding" into the icing. So one word to myself, don't put the pearls on until the very last minute! My client was sweet and totally understanding about it.
I wanna try and do this look in a few more colours. Readers, please give me the opportunity! :)
