Special delivery of red velvet and cookies & cream cupcakes from a girlfriend in SA to surprise her boyfriend who had moved to Switzerland.
I was recently in South Africa to celebrate a very special 18th birthday and Matric Ball (Prom). As requested by the birthday girl, I made a red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. It was a two-tier topsy turvy-esque cake covered in marbled fondant with gold shoes and butterflies. Unfortunately the weather was humid and very hot which made the cake seem to be ‘melting’. It was enjoyed by all though and the birthday girl loved it!

Whenever I visit, I also spend time decorating with my daughter and her friends, showing them a few techniques and letting them have fun with fondant. These were some of the pretty results of their endeavours!
Besides the giant carrot cake requested, my mum was also treated her favourite nibble of coconut macaroons. 
This week we’re working on a few very exciting projects, including a 40th disco cupcake party! Stay tuned
Nicole was visiting the US on her birthday but two weeks later came her cake surprise. Everyone who knows her, knows of her love for her gorgeous black cat, Pablito. and as she loves red velvet cake (not as much as she loves Pablito) I incorporated that into her cake by making her a not-red-red velvet cake, with fondant Pablitos sprawled over the cream cheese frosting.
When preparing to frost the cake, I was struck by how much it looked like a giant oreo!
