Super-Imani !



This is a cake for a little boy called Imani. He adores all things Superman, and hey ... with a name like that - SUPERiMANi was born !

His mum told me "It is important that I find the right person to bake the cake as my son has various food allergies and I need to know that the person baking the cake can take these into account. He is allergic to egg (but can eat items that contain completely cooked egg like baked items - though not in its pure form like in an omelet etc). He also cannot eat any form of nuts."

Consider it done !

New creation!



That is a new technique that I have started to work with. 

It is very effective and most suitable for sugarpaste and buttercreamed cakes.
Nice, no ?

Gabi's Birthday 2008



This cake was created for Gabi, my dearest god daughter. 

She first asked a cake with  pirates playing football, but on the day we could not find her pirates, so... she and I decided to go for ladybirds instead ! The credit though must be given to Gabi, 3 years old and coming up with such an idea! 

Bravo Gabi!

Ruth's baby shower




This cake was created for Ruth's baby shower at the American Internal Women's Club.

Ruth is part of our quilting group (where we are creating quilts to donate to premature babies born in geneva) and although she was heavily pregnant, she was so dedicated to the project that she was there until the last day !

When I was asked to make a cake, I was inspired by her dedication and wanted to give back something special ...

Ago's birthday cake!




Those that know Ago, know also he loves chocolate!

For my beloved partner, companion and best friend, I made this heavenly combination chocolate sponge, with chocolate mousse & berries... for him to take to the office and share with his team. From what he told me, there was not a crumble left !

John & Hugh Think Oscar's wedding!



This Cake was made for two dear friends of mine, who got married over the summer.
The wedding theme was " Think Oscars"...

Inspired by the Theme, this is what I came out with!

It was a surprise for them, as they let me to decide how it would look. They loved it and until this day, Hugh still gets in tears when he talks to me about the cake.
