BUBLE’S BACKYARD. The moment I hear the heavenly voice of @michaelbuble singing White Christmas is the moment I know that Christmas has well and truly come. I just gather that he must live in a perfectly stunning white wonderland - aka his backyard would look a little something like this. Layers of moist banana cake, salted caramel walnuts, vanilla buttercream, raffaelos and white chocolate trees. Just a little something I whipped up for a Christmas brunch 🙈 CHRISTMAS IS COMING. Well duh. Where have you been? Sneak peek sneak peek!! 🙈🙈 💙🧜🏻‍♀️💕MERMAIZING 💙🧜🏻‍♀️💕This cake just screams mermaids, coral and the sea. I absolutely love the contrast in colours - the bright blue and the pastel pink is just heavenly. 💘And legit something I’d see ole mate Ariel rocking up to one of her mermaid gatherings with. Ammiright? Layers of chocolate cake, peanut butter buttercream, white chocolate sail, pink tic tocs, raspberries and plenty of other pink treats! 🧜🏻‍♀️🧜🏽‍♂️ 💫🍒THE CHERRY CLAUS 🍒💫 Imagine this beauty on the Christmas table! How bloody merry would it be?! Layers of spiced carrot cake, cream cheese and copper cherries. So I gather this cake is calorie free because it has carrots in it AND it’s Christmas riiiiight? THE CHERRY CLAUS. This just feels so Mrs Claus to me. You agree no? First festive cake of the year and it’s not too OTT just yet. I mean, we wouldn’t want to start December all crackers a-blazing only to wind up left with the shit Christmas joke would we now? Layers of spiced carrot cake, cream cheese frosting and copper cherries. Literally the colours of Melbourne today 💛☀️🍋 Close up of my SWEET CAROLINE cake - custom @dessertparlour doughnuts, lemon sherbets, lemon marshmallows, vanilla buttercream 💛☀️🍋 SWEET CAROLINE. Was boppin along to ole Neil Diamond when I was decorating so I thought it only fitting that I name this super sweet, super summery ‘SWEET CAROLINE’. An absolute beauty for a regular client of mine. Clare, thank you once again for letting me making Sophie’s birthday cake. You let my creative mind run wild and it’s always a pleasure working with you 💛 Five delicious layers of Oreo red velvet, vanilla buttercream, doughnuts from @dessertparlour and yellow lollies. BUM BUM BUM! BIRFDAY BOI BIKKIES. My first ‘lemme just stamp what I’m trying to tell ya on a bikkie’ bikkies. HOW FUN! Honestly the perfect party favours. Because as much as I wanted to give guests at Dad’s 60th traditional lolly bags, I gathered something a tad more fancy schmance was in order. Inspired by my biscuit queens @sweetmickie and @bakemecakeme 🙌🏼🙌🏼 DISH HIM UP ✌🏼 I wouldn’t normally share photos like this but honestly how could I not. This photo makes my mouth water and my brain run into sugar overdrive. And it would be a big fat lie to say that I haven’t dreamt of this cake since we dished it up on Saturday. Layers of chocolate and vanilla cake with coconut buttercream and cherry jam 🍒 👀🔎CLOSE UP 🔍👀 Zooming in on the delicious things that were piled on top of Dad’s cake on the weekend. Toasted meringue, raspberries, cherries, Cherry Ripes, dark chocolate Kit Kats, Lindt balls and chocolate ganache drips. This was my first ever concrete-esque cake (inspired by @donttellcharles, obvs) and I’ll tell you what, it was bloody hard. I love that with what I do I can try new things and learn different ways of decorating a cake all the time. Luckily for me though, Dad was the guinea pig and double lucky for me, he has to love everything I do 🤣 🎈PAPA TRIX 🎈 Happiest of birthdays to my Papa bear who turned 60 this week! Was thrilled to make your 60th birthday cake - a towering concrete-esque number with toasted meringue, Cherry Ripes (your fave!), cherries, dark chocolate Kit Kats and Lindt balls. The bottom tier was vanilla and chocolate cake with coconut buttercream and cherry jam. Top tier was gluten free orange, almond and poppyseed. Here’s to another 60 mate! You’re a bloody legend. X 🦃🧡🇺🇸✌🏼HAPPY THANKSGIVING MY AMERICAN PALS 🦃🧡🇺🇸✌🏼 Flashback to these little 2017 gobblers 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃 YOU WON’T BE HEARING FROM ME IF YA DON’T 😅 Tuesday inspo for y’all from @bakemecakeme ✌🏼💫 THE GROCERY RUN. Get in kids, we’ve got groceries to buy! Was thrilled to help Coles Wangaratta launch their new store this week. Classic vanilla buttercake, vanilla buttercream and jam. Hunted down a full Coles little shop set and mini trolley to decorate! I don’t know about you, but I’ve never craved Milo so much. Or wanted to start collecting mini versions of errythang 🤷🏼‍♀️ 🛒🎈SNEAK PEEK 🛒🎈 GET IN BITCHEZ WE’RE HEADED TO WANGARATTA @colessupermarkets SUGAR DANCER. Check out that sugar dancing on top of this little number! What a hunnay 💃🏼 So I am absolutely OBSESSED with @juliaostro. In fact, obsessed is an understatement. I tried out her orange olive oil cake last week and it was simply heaven. I paired it with rich chocolate ganache in between the layers and dusty pink pistachio buttercream, berries, and a big pistachio toffee shard. I’m helping myself to a slice as we speak 😁 Oh ps - Melbourne friends, I have a couple more spots available for orders for the remainder of the year. Contact via the website 💫 FLAAAASSHHBACCCKK. 👅🍿🍰🎂🍮🍾🍫🥜🍯SOUND THE ALARM BECOZ ALL MY CRAVINGS ARE ABOUT TO TAKE CONTROLLLL. 📣❌☄️🌪 Happy Friday my little cake lovers! 🍫🥜🍯🍰🍾🍿👅 I KNOW IT’S BEEN A SHORT WEEK GUYZ BUT I’M ALREADY READY FOR THE BEACH. I WANNA PLAY WITH THE SEA HORSIES 🐎 SEASHELLS BY THE SEASIDE. Go on, say that 100 times in a row 🤪 Ever since moving home to Australia, all I’ve craved is the beach. And it’s been ever so blissful to get down to my favourite spot down the Great Ocean Road to jump in the sea. On the weekend though, I was countryside, picking oranges and mandarins from my boys orchard. Freshly picked mandarins called for this flourless mandarin, almond and dark chocolate cake. Covered in vanilla swiss meringue buttercream, biscuit sand, blue white choc popcorn (aka coral), banana lollies and white choc balls. And of course the ever so daggy Guerlian sea shells. Don’t tell me you don’t love them 😉 Right I’m off to build a sandcastle, WHO’S WITH ME? 🐚☀️🏖🌊
