Finnegan Cole's Mickey Mouse cake

Here's a cake we did for our dear friends' beautiful son, Finnegan Cole's first birthday.

Daddy loves Mickey, so Finnie had to have Mickey in his party. Mommy loves choc mudcakes so his cake had to be. Lower tier is a milk choc mudcake covered and filled with milk choc ganache. Upper tier is a white choc mudcake  with white choc ganache. Yes, in this cake are 13 blocks of Whittaker's milk and white chocolates! Oohh la la!

His great aunties were so excited they bought all the Mickey Mouse party things for him... To Finn with love from the UK! :D Such a lucky little boy!

Here's the cake:

There's Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy! It's a party!

A very happy 1st birthday to you, Finn! What an awesome party you had!

Chesca's Dora cake

Happy 2012 everyone! We know we owe you all some blogging, yes, we've missed you too! Life happened. :) We hope the holiday season was as sweetly eventful for you as it has been for us. As per our facebook page, we did close our tiny kitchen over the holidays which allowed us to spend precious time with family and friends.

Now, we're ready for another year of baking, designing, caking, and prettifying life!

Here's our first cake for 2012: A two-tier Dora cake for a cutie little girl's second birthday.

Hola! I'm Dora!

Three's a party! :D

We recently celebrated three birthdays in our family: our Grandma, Dominga's 70th; Jane's 20-something-th; and, our cousin, Giane's 9th. So, yes, we made three cakes! (Minnies, this time... we didn't want to see lots of left-over cakes.)

Grandma's Cake... inspired by the fruit cake we made last month. The cake is a picture of timeless elegance. Just like our dear Inang (Grandma).

Jane's cake... loosely inspired by Jase + Sarah's wedding cake. The cake reflects Jane's understated elegance. {Oh, heart! lol}

Giane's cake... colourful, fun, vibrant! Just like her! :)

The obligatory group photo :D

And the ladies... blowing candles, making wishes!

To our guests at the party... thank you so much for joining us! Life is definitely more beautiful with you in it! :)

a-Dora-ble cake

And, yet another cake we were busy with this week...

Jane's friend way back in high school asked us if we could make a cake for her beautiful princess, Reisha. She's turning two. She loves Dora!

Here's what we came up with [Joy has been wanting to try painting on cakes for a while now... methinks painting the grass on the cake looks awesome!]

A very happy 2nd birthday to you, Reisha!
