Whew ! Finally with submission of MBA dissertation and examinations over, I can breathe as a re-born ! These cakes were made as per the request with my friend Christine, way back in October but i did have time to upload them. Now, i can be a bit more regular in browsing your spots and add few lines to your creations. December is quite an interesting month here and I will post the creations perhaps every week. I hope you all like them.

Eight Birthday Cakes - October 2008
It was a wonderful learning experience as we made eight birthdays cake in last 10 days. Some were made during late evening while some were made during weekends. Interestingly the themes requested were different, so it was a good learning curve for me to play with fondant and marzipan and make different types of sugarcraft cakes such as chocolate, madeira and vanilla. My friend Christine and sometimes my hubby helped me a lot in idea generation, visual impact, aspects of ratio etc. Due to constraint of time, perfection as i would like it to be were not achieved in some of them but i gained the knowledge on how to do better next time.
As my second year final MBA examinations have started, i will now stop cake works and concentrate on academic works. I was working on the last wedding cake, prior to examinations, which i shall upload in my next post.
I hope you all like our effort. Below are the eight cakes that i have posted as separate posts.

Birthday Cake: Dartboard with darts - October 2008
This dartboard cake was requested by a lady, who wanted to celebrate her husband's birthday. The order was at a very short notice but we could not refuse it and made this for her. The round edges did not come out very well but it was a good process to go through.
