I am in love with Lee's precious china collection... I wish it was all in my collection!

Wedding Cakes - Engagment Cupcakes - Melbourne


Well the moment is finally here where I can show you one of the cakes that was involved in my recent photoshoot.  The other two are still in the works, so stay tuned for details on those...


The inspiration for this cake was vintage.  Everything vintage.  Think of the 20's and 30's, cream hand made lace, your Nan's pearls, and you will be pretty much on the money.


So, without further ado, here you are:

What do you think?  I'm pretty thrilled with them myself!


Then we have a tale of two clients - unrelated clients - who both happened to choose the same cupcake design (in different colours) on the same weekend... this has happened to me once before, and I didn't ever think it would happen again, but it did!

First is a 21st birthday, a cake and matching cupcakes, in black and white:



Then we have cupcakes only, for an engagement party, this time in red and white:



And finally, to wrap up this post, some Christmas in July cupcakes:



Well, that's it for this post - lots more irons in the fire, more exciting things to come, so stay tuned, but in the meantime, happy baking!

Stewart Leishman Photography - Wedding Cakes Melbourne

Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with an outstanding wedding photographer, Stewart Leishman.  Together we colaborated on an equisite photoshoot of some upcoiming Spring wedding cake designs...

Stewart was able to capture the pictures that I saw in my heart - I can only imagine the feats of splendour that he captures when shooting a wedding.  He is a lovely person, and I am really looking forward to working with him on future projects.  Stewart has a chef background, and I love good photography, so we had a great commonground to meet on; he knows his chops and what will work and what won't in terms of producing the best images possible.
You can check out Stewart Leishman photography here, and while we wait for those cake images to spring forth, here are some teaser shots for your veiwing pleasure...
