Fondant Madness!

Just done with Kak Zie's cuppies today. She ordered 9 pieces fondant cupcakes from me last week where she wanted the same design as the one i make for Zanna and Adeel. But then, i suggested that i'll design the cupcakes for her. From all the design i make for zanna and adeel, i think kak zie were into the bunny shaped fondant. Nak sis? hehe. Neway, I make a totally different design than the one i make for zanna and adeel. Oh i'm glad she likes it :) thx a lot sis.

Talking about her cupcakes, lotsa things happened during the process of designing it. Seriously, patience and determination are very much needed. it takes hours and days to design and set the fondant to achieve the right consistency. There are times when it didn't turned out well. Some of the fondant were too heavy that it almost dropped out of the cupcakes! wahh! Then, another fondant was about to cracked, on the day of the pick up! yah haha. ng best.

Image: Original design. See the top and the middle row cupcakes? There was supposed to be a round and heart shaped fondant but the fondant was too big and heavy that it breaks and fall off! huhu.

i have to redo the fondant and change it to another design. Glad that i make it on time. Phew~

Despite all that had happened, i'm grateful that the cupcake was finally done :)

Love Matters

Ah! Here's my very 1st fondant cupcakes ordered by 2 of my coursemate, Zanna and Adeel. They wanted a love theme with mostly love design on it and the cupcakes to be packed in an individual boxes. i suggest they choose a fully fondant toppings (to be safe) for they intended to post the cupcakes to peninsular. i did thought of making 4 pair of similar design for them but then some of the fondant didn't work out well and so i had to make another 4 cupcakes with different design.
