Various Birthday Cake Order from a Friend

This was my 2nd time making 2-tier cake.  This was ordered by a friend of mine for her daughter.  Her daughter loved Disney Princesses.  So I suggested a castle cake.  At that time, I was still new with this kind of cake so the design was very very simple & I wasn't satisfied at all with the final product.  I should add more details on the cake.  Well, hopefully will get another chance to make castle cake in the future.  Looking forward for it.  Hihihi..

This is the 2nd cake for her son.  He liked soccer so she requested soccer cake.  His fave teams are Real Madrid & Manchester United.  Actually there were logo of these 2 teams but I let my friend to put them by herself.

And this is the last cake for her husband.  Her husband loved fishing, so she asked me to make fishing themed cake.

Egg Tart

I think everyone of you who once went to Bali must know this kind of food.  It's called "Pie Susu".  Also my brother, every time he went to Bali, he always bought this Pie Susu.  I tried to find the recipe in the internet.  Actually it wasn't my first time making this, but the first time I made a large one, usually called Kue Lontar.  This 2nd time I made the individual size.

Rainbow Cake for me :D

I made this rainbow cake as a potluck and also for celebrating my birthday.  I made the cake 1 day before the event and assemble it on the D-day.  I used cream cheese whipped cream as the filling and covered the top with whipped cream.  Everybody said delicious and not too sweet.

My Melody Figurines

I made this My Melody figurines for my parents' friend.  He was asked to send birthday cake with My Melody theme for a high school girl.  At first, he wanted to order the cake as well but since I was out of town, so he ordered the cake from a well known bakery.  But I don't know why they couldn't make the figurines, so he still asked me to make ones.

 

There was some difficulties to make these figurines.  That day I planned to go back to Jakarta early in the morning, but there was a very heavy traffic jam from Bandung to Jakarta.  So I told my parents' friend about the traffic jam and he told me no need to rush.  If I could make it, he would be very happy, but if I couldn't, also not a big deal.  Luckily, I arrived in Jakarta very last minute to fulfill this order.

 

When the figurines done, my parents' friend looked so happy and that made me happy too.  He said the birthday girl also very happy.  Well, it's always feel good to make other people happy, even though the figurines wasn't as good as the real ones.  I was trying my best at least.  Hehehe..

 

 

Birthday Cake for Cherry

It was an order from a friend of mine for his daughter.  He wanted simple design picturing his daughter reading Bible.  So I made this, showing her parents was accompanying her reading Bible.

 

Still using the same base cake, steamed brownies and fully covered with fondant.

Steamed Cheese Cake for SS

This was also a short noticed order.  It was ordered by my senior back in University for her son's birthday.  She wanted to give the cake to her family, so she ordered 11 cakes.  The size of the cake was 20cm by 20cm.  It was my first experience taking order with that much quantity.  Thank God, she asked for a simple decoration.

 

The base cake was steamed cheese cake, covered with butter cream & shredded cheddar cheese.  With cherry on top & the date of the birthday.  Although I was quite exhausted but I was happy I could make it.

 

When I delivered these cakes to her office, there was an accident.  When the car door opened, one of the cake fell, fortunately I sealed the box. Thank God, she said it was okay since 1 cake was for herself.  Fiuhhh..  

Christmas Cookies for OS

This was ordered by my auntie for her daughter's class party back in December 2012.  The class party was like a potluck party.  So every student must brought food/drink to be shared with the whole class.  Since the party on December, my auntie asked me to make Christmas cookies.  

It was vanilla butter cookies decorated with royal icing.  The cookies was cut in Christmas shapes, like: Christmas tree, sock, Christmas bell, snowman & gingerbread.  

After the class party, my auntie told me that her daughter's friend were fascinated with the cookies' shape & color.  When their teacher told them to wait for her & not to eat the cookies first, they ignored it.  So when she came back, the cookies was almost gone.  Hahaha.

Below is how my auntie served the cookies.
