Neco Coneco cake, Italian meringue butter cream

So blessed to be asked by a close friend to make her youngest daughter 13th Birthday cake. I have known C and K for more then 25 years. Beginning of this year they have asked me to make their eldest daughter's 18th birthday cake and this time they asked me again to make their youngest daughter's 13th birthday cake.

I always love it when asked to make a special cake, especially when it comes to certain mile stone one a child's life. I love to see the child;s face light up when they sees their special birthday cake.

This cake is a small 8 inc cake vanilla sponge with swirl rosette italian meringue butter cream.. The decoration is just simple with bunting flags...and Neco Coneco sitting on a log.

If you are wondering what is a Neco Coneco, well is a Japanese cartoon cat character. I have no idea what it was until I was told. 

Really hope Birthday girl likes her cake.

Happy 13th Birthday Amy !!

Adventure Time and Professor Layton.

Love it when is time to make a cake for my kids.
This cake is designed by my little girl. She loves watching Adventure time and playing Professor Layton on her DS.
I told her that this year she can design her own cake and I will do my best to make it.
I think if this cake is a larger cake I  can incorporate all the details she wanted on her cake. 

Unfortunately this cake is not a very large cake, 3 tiers cake made from red velvet with Italian meringue butter cream.

Here is the sketch she made for her cake.

And the final product....

She loves the cake !!

Hedgehog theme cake

So blessed to be able to make another First Birthday cake. This time I was told I can do what ever theme I like. After asking the birthday girl's brother about what he thinks his sister would like for her cake, he told me that he like hedgehog and kiwi fruit.
I asked him why hedgehog and kiwi fruit? He told me that that the name he gave his baby sister since she was in mum's tummy.
Ahhhhh...Hedgehog ..i said ....ok, let make it a hedgehog theme cake, with a green butter cream.

I know that most of my cake is covered in fondant, so this time I will make the cake with one of my favourite butter cream. Italian meringue butter cream.

The cake is a red velvet cake covered in IM butter cream. Hedgehog is all hand made from sugar.
