SMURF Village Cake

Peyo created SMURF comic for the whole world and Handi's Cakes proudly 3D-ed the comic into a reality cake. We recently made a SMURF village cake for Meidy the birthday girl. We created a hot air balloon (weaved basket style) surrounded with different characters from the comic - Papa Smurf, Painter, Smurfette, Brainy, Chef, Farmer, Greedy, Handy, Harmony, Hefty, Jokey, Lazy and Vanity. Pretty adorable ...

The Water Dragon Spirit

Hello all,

First of all I would like to wish everyone a belated 'Happy Chinese New Year 2012' (water dragon year), I know it's kinda late (like...1 month late) but please give me a chance to wish everyone good health, luck, peace and prosperity. Hope everyone will experience a fantastic year ahead.

In the spirit of the water dragon, I would like to share my past dragon cake works with you all. I looked at both photos and trying to recall the making of the dragons. Ohhhh...what a process. They were different in terms of techniques/ colouring skills and I did enjoy every moment of the process in creating them. Really pleased with both dragons. I was comparing both dragons several times, and I cant decide on which design I like the most. I love them all ...

Which dragon do you like the most? Red Or Green? 

Lemme know your thoughts...XOXO

My very 1st dragon work (probably dated somewhen in early 90s), single colour method - all red. Female dragon perhaps?

My 2nd dragon (approx. 3-4 years ago), smaller in size, more colour details, check out the color gradation method.

What a night! I went to the Annual National Baking Industry Association (NBIA) Gala Awards Night on May 10 in Brisbane. The event was themed ‘A Parisian Masquerade’ featuring special guests Adriano Zumbo and Kirsten Tibballs!

I was so excited to be seated at the head table, I felt just like a VIP! It was so great to meet Adriano, Kirsten and Julie Whitehead. The president of NBIA was there too and the award was presented by the president of Cocoa Berry (one of the major sponsors).

It was such a great moment receiving the award for Cake Decorator of the Year! The award is now on display in my shop!
