I'm open to suggestions for the next one.

My boyfriend works for Amazon. I made this for their Christmas potluck. The black arrow and backing on tape and labels are fondant.

I made the brown too dark and decided to add snow to make it a wet box. 😅

I once had a flatmate who was very annoying, largely because he would do things like use the shared kitchen tea towels to polish his shoes before carefully hanging them back up on the drawer handle, but mostly because he insisted on trying to be funny by using the wrong words for things in ways that stuck and have since entered my personal lexicon and are seemingly unstickable.

Things like ‘stationdragon’ rather than ‘stationwagon’, ‘merote troncol’, and insisting that ‘the Easter Budgie’ is a far better Aussie Easter icon than the Easter Bunny.

So at Easter, to thank my teams at work, I made a cake, and in memory of that drongo, made it an Easter Budgie cake. Dark chocolate cake, with whipped caramelised white chocolate ganache, salted caramel crunch and hazelnut praline. And mini party budgies.

Cake I made for Christmas dessert 😊

Wish I had time for a couple more designs I had in mind, but here are the two Christmas cakes I made this year.

I recently hosted a Friendsgiving and I decided to make a very unseasonal cake lol. I made lemon cake with lemon simply syrup, filled with rings of lemon curd and strawberry jam, and finally, iced and decorated with strawberry buttercream. Other guests were bringing pumpkin related desserts and I wanted some variety haha. I’m now realizing I should’ve gotten a picture of the cross section😖

Order for a client’s annual Christmas party: 3 layer vanilla cake layered with vanilla bean buttercream and red currant preserves, double vanilla bean cupcakes and chocolate espresso cupcakes!

This is possibly one of my favorite cakes ive ever made

Something to invoke the feeling of autumn. Did a light dusting of gold to give that soft warm glow to it.

My first time trying a basket

This is a cake that i made a bit early for halloween. I was influenced by a creator named Particular Peculiarities!

Some little "cake bites" I made for Valentine's. My son informed me they cannot be called cake pops because they don't have a stick. Makes sense 😅

This is a raspberry and white chocolate cake I made for my colleagues and I for Canada day. Inspired by this post.

Here's some of what I baked for Easter this year!

Chocolate cake with coconut brigadeiro filling

Petite fours with homemade lemon curd and raspberry filling

Chocolate cupcakes filled with homemade caramel and topped with vanilla caramel buttercream

My largest order to date!

Chocolate layers (recipe by Claire Saffitz), black cocoa frosting (sugarologie), London whipped caramel (viral recipe) plus orange color.

ETA: The sweetness and saltiness of the caramel is overwhelming the other flavors. I'm going to try again and fold the whipped caramel into a filling base. LMK if you think I should put the caramel in:

1) an emulsion-based buttercream (not American buttercream) 2) a mousse 3) a pastry cream or custard 4) [other suggestion]

My spooky cakes for this year. Halloween baking is my favorite 🖤
