Yvette's Birthday 16 Oct 2011 sunday

It has been awhile since I updated my blog. Have been rather lazy and hooked on playing psp :)
Anyway, a friend ask me to help make a shocking pink cake and 100 cupcakes for her daughter's birthday. I spent the whole weeks trying out gumpaste and fondant. So, my verdict on gumpaste is that it taste like gum and tasteless. For the fondant, I prefer marshmallow fondant as it tasted better then the ordinary one.

Now here is the picture for the gumpaste roses and heart shape that I have tried:

Now, here is the cupcakes and cake:

 For the cupcakes, I uses red velvet cupcakes recipe to make the base and buttercream frosting. The pink frosting has a tinge of raspberry flavour while the white frosting is vanilla.

For the cake, the flowers are made from gumpaste. I uses rose pink colouring to get the shocking pink frosting for the cake. The cake base is made from butter while chocolate cake.

Now, I just hope the birthday girl enjoy her white and pink birthday. Here's wishing her every blessing and a Happy Birthday.
