Surprise Gift for my friend, Allie

This post is dedicated to my friend, Allie 

We've known each other since we were in primary school. 

She is always kind,thoughtful and I admire her soft & warm heart. 

I've felt so lucky to be so close to her since she came to Australia to further study 

at Sydney University and i am very thankful for the time we've shared together.

It makes me sad that she is going back to Korea in a few days..

Aroma festival at Rocks

I took pictures of us whenever I had a chance,

 but I lost a track of some of great pictures! Its a  Shame.

I haven't showed her these photos so hope it is kind of a pleasant surprise for her.

My musical buddy=D

 I love watching musicals and concerts and she also loves them too. 

We've watched a few musicals and concerts together and had so much fun!

I'm going to miss you so much 

whenever I find a good musical or concert I would like to watch..

Because of my cupcake addiction, she got to try cupcakes whenever we met..

I always wanted to try new things and we loved to talk about flavours & textures of cupcakes.

Thanks to her, I tried some drinks I have never had at Starbucks & Boost because she used to work at

Starbucks so knows what's good and bad.

I kind of love everything she introduced me to like Booster's Mango Tango

 which is my go-to drink when I feel like a refreshing drink.

 She is a very easy-going person and not a picky eater at all!

We love sushi in general, yum-cha ( our favourite is mango pancakes! ), high tea time..

love trying new food.

Unlike my husband (Sorry, babe ;-P), I don't have to think .. ' What if she doesn't like it? ' 

Recently, we tried high tea classic at Tea Salon in Westfield, Centerpoint on Pitt St.

Even though we had to wait for almost 40 mins, 

it was worth waiting for because their scones were so gooood!

We had an awesome Indian dinner at Newtown to celebrate Allies' Graduation.

I'm so proud of her and admire all her hard work to finish her studies. 

I know she'll achieve her goals in her life and hope she is always happy 

and visits my family in the future again.

I'll see you in Korea next time, Allie.

Love you heaps!

Cake Pops & Sprinkles

 Chocolate Cake Pops coated with White Chocolate & lots of Sprinkles

For Zac's 4th Birthday

I love Cake pops because it is a small treat which is one bite 

so you don't feel guilty about it.

My daughter loves cake pops. She is the first person
who gets to try a freshly made cake pop. 

Gemma gets so excited when I start making cake pops 

even though she is only 2 years old, 

she knows what I'm going to make by looking at me grabbing bowls or ingredients.

Once she realizes that mummy is making cake pops,

 she constantly looks over my kitchen bench
 hoping she can swipe yummy sprinkles left over.

I think cake pops tastes even better when you use chocolates for coating.

Yum.. 

It was gone in seconds!

Happy 4th birthday, Zac.

Thank you for visiting MyCupKates.

with lots of love,

Kate

Cupcakes to die for..by MyCupKates

Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Cupcakes

I just fell in love with them..

I went to gourmet food grocery last weekend and 

bought the organic Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla extract.. 

It was VERY expensive but I had to buy it to make the best vanilla cupcakes..

I believe good quality ingredients decides good quality food and

 I don't have any doubt about it when it comes to baking.

Raspberry cupcakes with Raspberry butter cream frosting

I added a few drop of raspberry puree into butter cream frosting and

 it brought natural pink color into frosting.. no food coloring at all..

Raspberry cupcakes with white chocolate butter cream frosting

If you have a sweet tooth, this is yours.

Raspberry + White chocolate = Match made in Heaven!

What else can I say?

Love Sprinkles..

Princess Party Dessert Table

Princess party dessert table for Gemma's 2nd birthday

I can't believe my daughter is 2 years old already! 

Since I made my first sugar fondant cake for her 1st birthday, 

I've been making lots of cupcakes and cakes... and waiting for her 2nd birhtday to come

 so I can throw her lovely princess party.

My mother and twin sisters are visiting us 

so it seems to be more meaningful moment for me.

They helped me preparing Gem's dessert table and food for the party. It was lots of work to make all different kinds of dessert but we had such a good time together.
