Ushering in 2014!

It's almost the end of January, New Year's has come and gone and we're now ushering in the Chinese New Year. The themes for this month's orders have been very Floral, with lots of rosettes and cherry blossom-like detailing.

I'm taking a 2 week break over CNY *yay!*, bakes shall resume mid-Feb :)

Top: 9-inch Mango Yoghurt Cake with Cream Cheese Ombre rosettes

Bottom: Red Velvet cupcakes

Cherry Blossom inspired piping, in theme with the Lunar New Year

Not your typical CNY cookie! 

Chinese Five Spice flavoured Sugar Cookies with personalised message and artwork.

"Ang Pow" Cookies! Yes, there's actually money inside! 

Artwork for the edible printed images supplied by customer.

Easter Bakes Etc.

Nothing cheers me up as much as cinnamon-scented sweet bread fresh out of the oven. A spin on the traditional Hot Cross Bun, I made a Cranberry Citrus Peel version  laced with a blend of sweet spices and lacquered with a Citrus glaze. I may just make these year round, too yummy!

Customised Full Moon Cookies for a gorgeous baby girl! I'm currently obsessed with Cinnamon, so it's a Cinnamon Orange cookie decorated with fondant and royal icing.

More Red Velvets :) LAFB's signature cupcake.
