Since the cake is for a young lady who is having a Mexican theme birthday party,

These bright & fun colours seems to be perfect for her.

[Tutorial] Fondant Baby Booties

Yellow 'LOVE' Baby Booties by Mycupkates

I printed many templates for baby shoes and haven't really tried yet..

There are lots of resources on the internet when you search 'fondant baby booties' 

My laziness have stopped me cutting all the templates 

and actually making cute baby shoes..

What a shame.. 

However, I finally put my effort into making one of the shoes templates and 

would love to share with you.

First of all, the title of the post is 'Fondant baby booties' 

but I used gum pastes(flower pastes) because It holds up the shape easily and dries fast.

The original template(below) is from cakecentral.com and 

special thanks to grannys3angels 

who offered one of the most popular baby shoes templates people have been using.

 

 If you like the cute bunny(above), check my little bunny tutorial here.

On my blank canvas..

This is the one I've always wanted to do..

These are my sample wedding cakes I'm working on recently.

On my two tiered blank canvas.. I decorated only with my sugar flowers..

The theme of the cakes would be simple & sophisticated.

Giant poppy.. Love the vibrant yellow colour..

It stands out as itself.

Simply white & a little touch of silver colour..

I love the cute look.. If it was not for the blank canvas cake,

 I would decorate more on the bottom tier to express "cute & refreshing" look.

I love the simplicity and clean look.. 

I hope I could post various themes and looks for wedding cakes.

There are so many cake design I've drawn 

(inspired by fashion catalogs, wedding dresses..etc)

 and I can't wait to make them all..

[Tutorial] How to make a fondant bunny

I've just finished making gum paste and am totally exhausted!! 

However, I happened to make this little bunny today so had to post this 

to share with someone who might need a cute bunny for cupcakes

 or saving it for Easter holidays perhaps?

I made a giant sugar flower and there was a bit of white gum paste leftover 

so I decided to make a bunny which is great for beginners to try.

(The carrot is not included in the tutorial. It is the one I made for Easter holidays.)

After taking photos, editing, I just researched "fondant bunny tutorials" 

on the internet to see how other people have done bunny tutorials and 

I found the exact same looking bunny like mine in the blog "wee love baking" by Sharon 

who is one of amazing Australian cake artists.

What a coincidence! 

I was shocked at the beginning and also hesitated to post this tutorial 

but I found there are a few different methods so I decided to post this to share.

What you need..

White modelling paste or Gum paste

Spaghetti Stick

Pink petal dust

Tooth pick

Small round tip(optional)

Brush 

Water

1. Shaping body parts

 2. To attach the body parts, use a brush with a little bit of water (very lightly!)

*I put the spaghetti stick in the center of the body to support the head.

3. Making bunny ears

4. Use tooth pick to mark a line in the middle of each ear

5. Dusting in the marked line

6. Making the mouth using the tip (you can also use the tooth pick)

7. Making two holes to place ears 

8. You can simply put ears into the holes with a little bit of water.

9. Using an edible pen, draw eyes on her face:)

Done!

I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for stopping by.
