Cakes and flowers!

A friend of mine wanted a birthday cake for another friend of ours. He likes snowboarding among alot of other stuff.

So we went ahead and made him a birthday cake! A snowboard atop a snowy coconut mountain.

I used a metal bowl to make the cake, split it on the inside, and filled it with white icing.

Then covered the entire thing on the outside, and left it light and fluffy, and added a bit of shredded coconut on the outside. I cut out a piece of sugar-paste in the shape of a snowboard, and let it dry on a rack with the ends turned up under some paper towels. After dry, I brought it to my Sociology/Sexuality class, and painted it with gel colours.

On another Note, I got a call from a lady who needed a cake for her friend's mother. Her name was Violet, so naturally they wanted a cake with purple flowers on it.

I made about 15 purple "violets" for this lady's cake. After assembled, I painted the insides darker, and put gold luster dust on tips of the petals. If I can find a Picture of the ACUTAL cake, I will eventually post it. I also let a piece of sugar-paste dry in a square, and painted "Happpy Birthday Violet" on it... Turned out kinda nice. :D

Lastly, Awhile back, I had made a cake for a 10 year old girl, in the shape of a "10". It turned out pretty all-right :D

Well. I hope you enjoyed. :D

See you soon!

On this table i believe there were chicken skeweres, cream cheese cupcakes/chocolate covered strawberries/ bruschetta/ gingerbread men with cream cheese dip/ fresh sicilian cannoli/gingerbread house/ fruit salad in a watermelon sled/ and something else that .. i cant see very well.

Work on sunday was TRES boring. However, one of my favorite staffers there, Shirley <3>6 Reservations makes for a crappy-ass night. Regardless.

However I would like to point out, that work-cakes, are made with half of the required equipment, and generally with 4 or 5 people breathing down my neck watching me AND my boss rushing me... always rushing...... stress stress stress.

It didn't turn out half as nice as I would have liked. However.... She Loved it... and i like it.. its pretty cute.

Upcoming with Callisto Catering... A Nice big X-mas party.. with a bigger establishment in town... EXCITING. We are pulling out all the stops!

Anyway, Thanks for stopping by my blog... <33

Apologies!

Sorry,

Have not had very much time to blog lately.

I guess thats because I don't have very much time to cook lately either.

Tonite, I enjoyed a Delissio pizza, prepared by my favorite in-house chef, Ger.

baby?

Too bad no one told me about it.

Apparently my brother and his wife had their baby today.

Too bad I found out about it on facebook, and by text message, and everyone else got a call from them.

Apparently her name is Gabriella.

I'm sure she's beautiful... And I'm incredibly happy she is here..

But still a little ticked.
