TQ terah, for ordering this cake his beloved brother :)

Cake is a 2.5 kg choc. cake covered in chocolate ganache. chocolate overload... YUMMY!

cake class

Salam All.....

How have it been for you? Yesterday was 10.10.10....... THE DATE to settle down for many couples.... wedding invites, engagement parties, open house invitations to fulfill... meaning theres FOOD, FOOD and MORE FOOD! ... the effect? SLEEPY EYES on 11.10.10... ahahhaha

Anyway, I would like to tell you about this cake class i attended while i was in KL. The class was conducted by Kak Lyana of loveliana-online.blogspot.com. Kak Lyana is such a lovely lady and extremely kind... even her daughter Adinda is very chirpy and friendly... :)

I joined her intensive class which was meant to be conducted within 2 days duration. When i arrived for the first day of class, Kak Lyana asked me whether i would like to compress the whole 2 days of lessons within a day.... and i answered "SURE!"

So, Kak Lyana started the lesson with me measuring buttercream ingredients and so forth and then we start crumb coating before the actual cake decorating session.

There were 9 cakes to be done and i was all HYPED UP! *comeon aza.... takkan tgk 9 biji kek utk di decorate dah suka kot?*

12 hours later, all cakes were done. Who says baking and decorating is easy peasy? it takes time you know.... I started the day with energizer bunny energy and i returned home as limp as KIMCHI! I dont even have the strength to bring in all my cakes inside the house... i just leave them in the car for the nite...
see??? im so beat up dat i dont even care to look good in my pic... nasib baik gamba ni kecik jer from Kak Lyana's FB

Seriously...... 12 hours of lesson was so worth it. everyone loves the cakes. more, my hubby's niece and nephew *for whom i decorated a barbie cake and a ben10 cake* could not stop oooohhhh and aaaahhh-ing their cakes.... They were sooo excited and claimed it was their best cake ever... hahhaha.... kids are easy to please arent they...
balqis cant stop staring at her cake.... as i told her CAN SEE BUT NO TOUCH... and she actually listens... hahahha

learned many things and i am so excited to actually be home and bake cakes for my dear family, friends and customers :)

Till next post

*muahs*
