Dear friends,
As you can see on the right I linked my daughter's blog, imozine.blogspot.com .
Basically, her blog features customized jewelery handmade by her. She's got a range of bracelets, necklaces and earrings designed and made by her. Actually, she was the one who introduced me to blogging and she started w-a-y before I did haha.
Btw, she's on the verge of updating her blog with more and more stuff (although that's a secret of the matter of what she's putting on) so what you see isn't all!
Cheers,
Carrie and co. (co. = her daughter Lol. She co-wrote it )

Ordering Cake
Thinking of cakes for that special occasion? Wedding, Anniversary, Birthday, Graduation, New Year, Christmas, etc...your list goes on.
Appreciate if you could give me 5 working days advanced notice. Think of your favourite theme and colours for efficient decision making.
Price depends on the quantity, size and design of the cake (min RM125). Delivery charges (RM25 - RM40).
Write, text or call me at : My email : cakeinc2010@gmail.com or mobile : +6012 2139375
Love,
Carrie

More Challenges (Tips and Ideas are welcomed!)
Just finished making these lemon cupcakes with roses. I made them violet and lilac, my daughters' favourite colours. They are not 'pink' people neither am I, I am 'blue' and they are 'violet', thus I always refrain buying or making anything pink for them.
I found these roses very tricky to make. If you are not careful, it ended up like a cabbage! I can still spot some cabbages in my works, ha ha. Nevertheless, I like these challenges as they pushed me work harder, as the saying goes, practice made perfect.
The lemon cupcakes are not sweet but appetizing. Well, of course the icing (roses) is VERY sweet in order to make it stiff enough for making roses.
I welcome all ideas and tips if there's any to make these roses and the icing less sweet but stiff enough. Thank you in advance.
Stay blessed,
Carrie

The Beginnings
Well, it was not intentional but accidental that I started this hobby. It all began with my hubby urged me, months ago to look into starting my own business or pursuing my master degree, etc...
After searching high & low, browsing through newspapers and magazines, google searching the net, I was more confused than ever. So, I stopped looking until one fine day, while dining at a restaurant only a minute drive from my condominium, I saw a school offering cake decorating courses. It made every sense to me as it's just 'a stone throw' away from my home and the time schedule is very convenient for a busy mother who does everything from chauffeur to tutor.
With very little expectation and faith, I began my classes...busy not only baking & decorating but looking for 'victims' to consume my 'masterpieces' so as not to waste them all. The challenges that came along hit hard on my 'overcomer' attitude, that I just needed to work harder & harder to perfect my skill.
I would like to encourage those who are thinking of trying new things to believe in yourselves, you would never know...

New Found Hobby in Cake Decoration
Hello World,
I have a new found hobby in cake decoration: by accident.
And voila! After 2 lessons it really hit me. After many trial & error, discoveries, failures and challenges I am moving even more fervent than before. So, my daughter and friends encouraged me to start a blog...doing something relating to cakes and decorating.
First, here are my recent works created to begin with. I hope you will like it.
Blessings,
Carrie
