Vintage Easter

 
 
 
I made 2 quite detailled dummies the other day in only 3 hours - hooray for cakeprints :)

 
The incredibly cute hare-picture is found at the Graphic fairy 
and was just begging me to put it on a cake..
 

 
The top is stencilled - my aim was to make the colours look a
bit more patinised, but one only gets one shot at this, so...

Miss Sofie

 
It is no big deal at all to create a small masterpiece when you have the right elements. 
The icing-picture on this cake is from cakeprints - So easy to work with.
 

 
 
 

 
Thanks to my beautiful daughter for posing :)

Cookies with cakeprint


I´m currently playing with cakeprints from Cakeprint.dk. These cookies i made last year, but before i left for an extremely pleasant vacation last week i made a couple of cakeprint dummies that just needs a few minor decoration adjustments. I just need to unpack our suitcases and do a ton of laundry, then I´ll get to them :)

Peanutbutter muffins


I found this recipe online that looked interesting. It called for peanutbutter and brown sugar and the divine smell of freshly baked muffins attracted the residents of the house, gladly offering their tastebuds...


We were all quite puzzled to find out that these little wonders tasted of absolutely nothing...?
 It helped a little with a fair amount of chocolate ganache.


 
But they look great, don´t they?
 
Never mind, they´re all going to the freezer, and will add texture to the next batch of truffles..

Sealand Cakeshow 2013

 
 
 
This is my contribution to Sealand Cake Show 2013. I´ve had the image below lying in my "next project" folder for ages, and if Sealand Cakeshow had not come, I would have most likely never gotten to create this piece. -Which was fortunate, because it won first prize gold! :)

Some of the other participants cakes were extremely beautiful and incredibly well-executed, the standard was much higher than I´d expected. I think my luck was, that the cakes were judged after english guidelines where every cake starts with gold, and then flaws as cracked icing, visible wire, thick petals and so forth subtract - because there where some really, really beautiful cakes there!
  


Well... This is some way to kick-start 2013...
