Week 2 - Baby shower Themed Cake .

I was requested to do a baby shower cake for my friend's friend . My friend was very particular that she wanted a Preggy momma on the cake along with her hubby and her first kid ( with a toy car ) . As she didn't know what baby it was , we thought of going with neutral colors . Yellow , Green and purple was finalised as the colors for the cake . After so much of browsing , we ended up with our own design , which we both liked .

The Cake was Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Bean Buttercream filling and frosting . It was decorated with edible baby shower themed figures. The theme was dadda and the son were waiting for Momma and the newborn . So we placed Dadda and son on one side of the cake and momma on the other side. Baby Things were kept on middle of the cake and son holding a board saying Boy / Girl??? Brother or sister ??

The side of the cake i had pipped messy ruffles and I had placed button all over the cake to give it a finished look .

Disclaimer - Other than the Baby Stroller everything else were edible .

As the Baby Shower Party was happening little far from my house for safety purpose i had removed Momma , dadda and son from the cake and fixed it before the function.

Aren't these Baby Things looking small and cute ???

I am pretty sure that i need to improve on figures , i am working on that

I feel so guilty that i am not able to post frequently for past three weeks . But it doesn't mean that i was soo lazy ( yeah i was a little bit ) or i was sick in bed . I was terribly busy on baking loads of cakes . Each time i bake , that day i end up with headache due to taste testing the frosting . :P .

This was a Simple Sri Lankan Chocolate Cake filled and frosted with Silky Chocolate Buttercream . The cake was for my Friend's Brother . As he was fond of SpaceShips , i was requested to do a Fondant Spaceship and a edible person cake topper . Spaceship didn't take me much time as it was not edible . The Boy cake topper took so much of time . When i finished making the figure , I realised the hand was broke then i had to fix it . It took my time .. Still i thoroughly enjoyed it .
