Diaper Dress

Sara and John are expecting a baby girl by December 31, 2011. A beautiful baby shower was thrown for the couple in celebration to their first child.

I made a diaper dress, as shown in the center of the picture. The diaper dress was branded with Calvin Klein in honor of John, who is an exectutive in Calvin Klein company.

Christening Dress Cake for Ethan

Late posting for November.

After a successful Onesie Baby Shower cake and cupcakes, Aunt Eden requested me to make another cake for her daughter's son's Christening.  This time it was a Christening Gown cake and cupcakes.  It was a coincident that her grandson's Christening is the day after my baby son's Christening.  I was grateful that my sister, Sheena, who is also a cake decorator in CA, helped me with organizing my son's Christening and with Ethan's cupcake decorating.  We delivered the cake to the venue at Fiesta Catering in the northern New Jersey.

Here's how it was packaged.

The cake was a chocolate cake with chocolate-caramel mousse filling and covered with vanilla buttercream and adorned with fondant.  The Christening dress was airbrushed with pearl food coloring to give a smooth-satin look.

The baby shoes was made in gum paste and fondant.

Toy Box Cake for Benjamin

Another late posting for September.

It's sad that I wasn't able to finish the cake for my son, Benjamin David. It's a mimic of his Toy Box in his nursery room. It's difficult baking and decorating cake when you have a newborn baby who demands milk and changing of dirty diaper.



Thanks for the inspirational work from Rheena, a flawless cake decorator in San Mateo, CA.

Finding Nemo

Late posting for September.

On Sept. 22, I was 37 weeks and 2 days pregnant when making and decorating this gorgeous "Finding Nemo" birthday cake. It was difficult with big belly bump bulding from my stomach and rolling fondant. However, I was so happy and pleased with the outcome of the cake.

The following day (Sept. 23, 8:00AM) I was in labor when I was about to deliver the cake. Who would expect that I would give birth to a healthy and beautiful baby boy on that same day, Sept. 23 at 6:05PM?

I am still thankful that my aunts and uncle up to this point for delivering the cake while I was laying on the hospital bed giving birth to my son.

This cake was a chocolate cake with mocha Italian buttercream. The decorations were made from fondant. The characters were made from rice crispie treats and adorned with fondant. The cake was airbrushed with blue food coloring.

Happy Birthday, Angelina!!! To my friend, Mike and his wife Cindy, I hope you like the cake.

Bicycle Diaper Cake

Another diaper cake for a baby boy shower.

My friend. Mi-Mi, loved the tricycle diaper cake I made for Rob and Kelly. This time we teamed up to make one for her niece, Nina. She brought the materials we need and assembled them together. When we finished diaper cake with bicycle cake topper, we noticed that we didn't have a plush toy - the bike rider! I'm resourceful so called my friend John Johnson to borrow his children's plush toys for the purpose of picture taking!

Here it is.... the finish product - bicycle diaper cake!
