Cake for Mama's 61st Birthday!



 .....So yummy....loved the coffee flavor!!! Anyways, I made this cake 4 hours before the party.....and thanked God it still turned out to be a good one.  My niece thought I bought this cake from Goldilocks, a popular cake shop here in the Philippines.  She couldn't believed I made this one.  I am pretty happy about this creation, I just thought of the design on the spot though.  Hubby thought it look like a pro!!!  "Thanks my love, you never fail to compliment my creations..."

my first time to piped a rosette design, not bad at all!






I am glad to see a smile on her face when she saw the cake. I think she was so very proud of me.  And I am also very proud of her!
   This is a 3 layered cake with chocolate in the middle. Iced it with Italian Meringue Icing and decorated with rosette and border using the WHIPPIT icing with coffee flavor. I should have roasted the sliced almonds to give it some contrast, oh well there's always a next time....!

The Barner's fave!

Classic Blueberry Cheesecake
       For my "suki" Elvie & Paul Barner nothing beats this classic fave.  They simply love this blueberry cheesecake!  This is not a cheapy one, it's baked and it tastes better compared to the no-bake that you can easily buy at the mall.  It's pricey because of the imported and expensive ingredients but it is worth your money......only if you appreciate the rich taste of cream cheese desserts such as this!  Thanks for your orders.

Czeannon's Angry Bird Cake

   I was happy about the outcome of this cake.   This was an easy one to make.  I have discovered an easy way to do my icing/frosting by using the product "WHIPPIT".  I just totally fell in love with this thing. So convenient, so easy to find and stable in a warm weather place like the Philippines.  I was skeptical about this product when the salesperson was trying to sell me one he did not convinced me at all.  I just had to ask someone from the store who actually have used it before.  And a lady customer told me it's pretty stable and it taste  like marshmallowy so i grabbed one.  And "walla" instant icing....no sweat! and it tasted really great...not so sweet and you can make it very light textured also.  Although, it is a little bit pricey but it did saved me a lot of time and effort. 
              Thanks Lovely Salonn for the order!
