Welcome to my Other Blog (& How It All Started)

I have created this blog to show my made-to-order cake creations. My friends have been requesting me for as long as I can remember to start making cakes and sell them as I have posted some photos of my tempting treats through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and my original blog. I have politely declined several times although I would usually bake for them upon request or I usually bring them a cake during their birthdays. I always feel not very confident about my baking (and decorating) skills and it just puts too much pressure on me. After a bit of convincing (and words of support) from my hubby, I finally gave in.

My baking skills are only self-taught and I learn new things as I go along. I am also trying to improve on my icing skills and now that I have some available cakes to order, I have tried to make them more presentable and less home made (hopefully).

This all started when I made a black forest cake (my first attempt actually) after I decided to make use of the left-over cherries from my upside-down cake. I then tried out some fancy decoration and posted a photo of my hard work. The rest is history. I never expected that it would lead to this.

I hope that this new chapter and opportunity will be an exciting and fulfilling experience for me. For now, it is just for the holiday season then we'll see from there.
