IN LOVING MEMORY OF KUNG-KUNG

My grandfather passed away peacefully at his home on the 18th of April. We were all there, watching, praying and holding back tears. Here is a man who has taught us by example the true meaning of faithfulness, unconditional love and dedication. He has led an incredible life, fought a good fight and a champion in our hearts.

He was 84. We will miss his witty Hakka personality, his ever reassuring presence, his straightforwardness and no-nonsense fatherly charisma. His forgiving nature, his quirky remarks, his family videos, his willpower, his loyalty and his jolly chuckle. God Bless You. He will wish everyone, from the last days of his life. I think he knew, so he decided to extend God's blessings to everyone that came his path. So believe me, when my Kung Kung left to be with the Lord, God was near and there was no fear,  AMEN.

My Belated First Post of The Year | More Cupcakes!

It's just terrible that I am doing this posting right now. This is such a belated posting, but you will see why I've been absent from blogworld. So much to do so little time.

These little dolls were for Fiona's wedding cupcakes.

They are just adorable.

Traditional yet kawaii looking.

Found a really cool way to do roses on fondant. Will post a tutorial when time permits.

We upcycled a tier by draping it with this wonderfully textured upholstery fabric.

Fiona wanted a cute sign on her dessert table.

Thanks Fiona for the opportunity!

These were cupcakes for a 21 year old surprise party.

Fondant keys, pink roses, sugar and spice and everything Pink & nice.




These were made with silicone victorian moulds.

The topper for the tier.
Lace hearts with a little shimmer dust.

Pink sakura flowers.

Hearts with vines.

Butterflies

Doves

The baking begins. These were orange poppy seed cuppies.

Icing the cupcakes. My most favourite part of the whole process.

Dollops of cream cheese!

I am so in love with this piping nozzle. Some creamsicle shapes have this salivating effect on me.

Chocolate!

Placing the keys over the cream.

Mastering the rose piping.

The butterflies are holding up well.

White on pink. Gorgeous!

Something about textured fondant.

The whole ensemble.
More!

These were Christmas cupcakes my neighbour Janet ordered.

Snowmen and snowflakes.
My Christmas Tree! Where I find the time...It's just been an amazing 2012!!!!
