Ruban Rose et Chocolat

When it comes to cake proportion , I prefer designing each cake tier to be smaller in width but with twice the height to make it greatly statuesque. As well the cake is quite appealing as it is cut and served to reveal several decadent layers. For this cake, it is the soft shade of pink against the neutral shade of chocolate brown that makes it charming. This four tier cake was designed to be delicate and fine with quilted chocolate fondant with pink pearls and bows. Enjoy!

Glamour

I love the aroma that fills the kitchen when making butter pecan cake with dulche de leche. It's one of my favorite cakes to make , being nontraditional for weddings. Well wedding season is almost at its end and new plans and even more over the top designs are being dreamt up for the next. I have some exciting things to unveil over the next few months. Till then, here's a a glammed up three tier design with sugar roses made for a wedding on the hillside of Blue Mountain.

Mexican Love

I know I've said it before , but I highly enjoy designing cakes for themed weddings. For this cake concept, it was all about my client's favorite pastimes in Mexico together. Color was a definite must to pull off the design , so I incorporated dozens of hand painted sugar tiles wrapped around all three tiers. Pink shades on sugar Bougain Villa were added to give just the right touch of Mexican florals to make this cake both colourful and refined.

Happy Turkey Weekend

I truly enjoy this time of year. I have a lot to be thankful for being it's now officially been two years since I set my sights on Collingwood to start up my custom cake boutique. This area has been more then supportive in understanding that it's not just about baking for me , but a form of art. With this past summer being fully booked with some amazing clients, how couldn't I feel anything but gratitude. So here's a little treat to show the beginning to end process of this simplistic pumpkin cake.
Hope you enjoy

Sweet Bling

Who doesn't like a little bling! These cupcakes were the edible accessory at the grand opening of Style Studio's sister store Hey Girlfriend. When asked to cater to this event , I was more then thrilled to design some sweet treats for one of my favorite new store. Being an evening cocktail style event, sugar jewell adorned cupcakes were the perfect choice as guest could nibble and shop at their hearts content. For the main cake we went with a shopping bag overflowing with jewellery. Congrats again Shelly on your new fabulous store and all the best in your success!

Falling Leaves and Golden Twigs

This time of year is the best when it comes to the outdoor beauty of the Blue Mountains while the leaves change color. It's no wonder this couple got married outside at a horse farm and the reception in the an actual barn. For the design of the cake , we match the custom made stationary by painting on a climbing branch silhouette with falling sugar leaves while adding golden twigs in the background.
Enjoy!

Simply Vintage

I really do enjoy using color when it comes to designing wedding cakes. But in this design the simplicity of shimmery silver on white was not only elegant but timeless. Vintage sugar button on fondant ribbon bows give the right amount of feminine touches to the contemporary square shape.
