The design process

Late this month one of my siblings is turning 15, so for her special day we had a cake design session and this is what we came up with. (Make sure to check back for photos of the finished product!)

First is my drawing of the concept cake (my art skills not impressive):

And here is her rendition of the same cake:

Obviously she loves bright colors and funky designs. The bottom layer will be chocolate cake covered in neon green whipped icing with black fondant zebra stripes and bordered in varying colors of neon fondant balls. The top layer will be french vanilla cake covered in neon pink whipped icing with multi colored neon fondant circles (with a circle cut out of the larger circle), topped with a fondant bow and twirlies (as I call them), and bordered with varying colors of neon fondant balls. I've also purchase some pre-bent wire to do the mid-air hanging neon fondant balls.

Needless to say I'm very excited about this project and can't wait to get started. Don't forget to check back and see the finished product (might have to do a couple dozen cake balls to match!).

Mock up of the cake.

Without the candles so you can see the fondant designs.

Over view.

I love these water falls (or whatever the technical term is).

Baking will commence soon then the fun of frosting and decorating and finding the room in my fridge for this awesome cake.

Weee aim to please

We here at Weee Creations aim for variety, creativity, and fun in all we do. So when preparing for a marathon cake pop session I decided to make pops for those we are excited for all the recent snow and for those who wish it was 70 and sunny year round. (Personally after 6 hours in a cold/drafty kitchen I'm in the group wishing for 70 and sun.)

For anyone feeling the winter spirit and loving the snow and bone chilling winds, here is a cake pop for you:

And for the rest of you who can't wait till it warms back up and there is sunshine, here is a cake pop for you:

Sparkle gel makes for horrible pictures

Finally got the birthday cake done for next week. Cupcakes with skull cherries on them didn't turn out so well. Improvisation yielded cupcakes with pink sparkle bows and black and pink sugar crystals on them (pictures to come).

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas


Cold winds, forecasts of snow, and a mounting heating bill - yep it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Foregoing the traditional fresh cut tree and trimmings - we have erected the white pre-lit wobbly tree (can't say that with out smiling). Since the Christmas festivities will not be at our house this year I decided to put up ol' wobbly and use it as a decoration for a birthday party I will be hosting mid month. Emo Hello Kitty character Kuromi will be the main theme with decorations in pink, purple and black to accent.

Lollipop tree - Your choice of characters on co-ordinating bag loaded with lollipops $20


How tough, yet girly... 

So however unconventional your decorations maybe - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
