Our Cakes Take the Spotlight!

As the wedding season slowly comes to a slow close for the year.  Things have sure been busy and hectic around here!  This summer has been a stream of endless great milestones for so many.  Baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays and, of course, who can forget those extravagant wedding celebrations.  But what has really caught my attention is the increasing demand for my cakes!  From Nike Air Jordan cakes, Transformer cakes to our beloved, Hello Kitty cakes.  My clients have the craziest ideas!!!!  ...and that means, I have to come up with the craziest ways to make it happen!  I can't complain...they are super fun!









Aside from all those great and fun cakes....traditional cakes with a classic spin on them are popular too!  Just have a peek at some wedding cakes and simple sheets cakes.




So, the message that I leave with all of my wonderful clients:  You all keep me on my toes!  I love all the great ideas and challenges...so keep them coming!  Remember weekends tend to fill up quick so be sure to give yourself plenty of time.  Two weeks is probably the minimum to secure your date; however, the earlier the better!  If you don't know if there's enough time...just get in touch and let me know what you're looking for...and I will always try my best to make it happen.  :)

Testing New Ideas...Yes, Again! Mini Wedding Cakes!

As some of you might already know...I am constantly testing new ideas in the kitchen.  This is when the mini wedding cakes idea came to mind.  What exactly are they?  Well...allow me to introduce the soon to be offered little additions to SweeTease.  They are cake pops in the form of two tiered wedding cakes!  Exactly like their sister versions except without the stick and stacked in twos!



Each mini wedding cake is made out of the cake pop mixture (cake and buttercream blended together) and covered with a thin layer of fondant and stacked on top of each other.  So be warned - they are very dense and rich versions of our fluffy cakes.  Don't be mislead, they are still delicious...it just means a few bites will likely give you the kick you need.  Delicately decorated with royal icing for pearled borders, or beautifully wrapped with a handcrafted ribbon and topped with edible fondant flowers and/or hearts...these little cakes are pure indulgence in its most elegant form. 





These little delicate take home cakes are perfect as wedding favours and are available in our most popular cupcake flavours, such as coconut, chocolate, red velvet, almond and, of course, your classic vanilla!  They can be individually packaged in either cellophane bags and tied with tailored wedding colours OR in individual windowed bakery boxes.  Each will be $8/each - a price that's nothing compared to the details and impression left on guests faces.

Enjoy!  :)
