Princess Peach from Super Mario Galaxy

It is nice to see friendly sibling jealousy and rivalry. Remembering the good old times between my younger brother, younger sister, and myself, how we had the same rivalry. When I made Lorenz’s Pokemon Ball birthday cake, Alyssa wanted her birthday cake to be the same as her older brother. I was in Dallas, TX taking Lauren’s Cake Sculpting 301 class (yet, another cake muppetizing technique) during my niece’s birthday, Alyssa.


During Aly’s birthday, she was upset that Aunt Evelyn was there on her birthday dinner and forgot to make her a cake when Aunt Evelyn promised her one. So, the following day after I arrived from Dallas, TX, I made her Princess Peach cake first thing in the morning. Then, I delivered the cake to her in the afternoon. It was a joy to see another child smiling at my creation. She was embarrassed at first, but I see how happy she was to see her favorite Nintendo DS character to be her cake. It was so worth it to make another kid smile in spite of the long and late travel coming back from Texas.

Muppetizing with Lauren Again - Cake Sculpting 301

This class was to teach a new technique to make a muppet cake with one leg sticking out. The technique of applying modeling chocolate over the rice crispie treat is the same as the technique taught during cake sculpting classes 101 and 201. What is different from the previous classes was the technique of using air brush. In this class, we had to opportunity to airbrush our monster muppet.

For my monster muppet, I wanted to make Sully, from Monster, Inc. movie, but since I only have limited to finish my muppet, I had to simplify my monster muppet. My flight going back home to NJ is scheduled at 7:00PM. I was able to somehow finish my monster cake before leaving the class. Voila! Here’s my monster muppet cake:

Again, like as always, Lauren is a good teacher. She made the class fun and interesting. She is a great person. We went to Chik-fil-a for lunch. Then, head back to class quickly so I can finish my muppet before leaving Dallas to NJ. I had once more a blast in this class! It was fun! Hope will see her again!

Juvenille Diabetes Research Foundation Donation Cake

A colleague asked if I would like to donate food and/or money to raise funds for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). Instead, I donated my time to make a custom cake for the fund raising event.



Weeks later after the event, our company released the Winter 2010 Magazine, a Quarterly Global Publication with the picture of the cake I made for the foundation. I like how they named me…. “Nicknamed Cake Boss.” This is flattering news!

Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag Cake

My mom’s best friend, Aunt Rose, is celebrating her 60th birthday. My asked me to make a cake for my aunt. Aunt Rose loves designer purses. Who ladies doesn’t like designer purses? I have been long so eager in making a Louis Vuitton purse cake. This was an opportunity to make one for my aunt.

Closer look of the cake.

One of my good friends, Anne, loaned me her Speedy LV purse so I have a replica for the cake I will be making. During pictorial, I place the LV purse next to the LV purse cake to compare my work. It was close enough, but the cake a bit short (ran out of cake to carve).

According to my mom, my aunt was so happy that my mom was so generous for buying her a LV Speedy bag. As she lifts the handle of the purse, it broke! She was astonished that the purse’s handle broke. To my amusement, she didn’t know that it was a cake!!!! My aunt then decided not to touch the cake or worse cut the cake. She wants to preserve the cake. Oh, well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AUNT ROSE!!!

Muppetizing my baby nephew, Jian

My baby nephew, Jian, turned two, the terrible two. Since I recently completed the Cake Sculpting Classes by Lauren, I applied the techniques I learned from her class to make a muppet cake for Jian. My nephew loved his cake! He can’t help himself poking the muppet. He also loved the cake balls. The cake balls were his birthday favors.
