<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two baby shower cake in a week, haven't done that in ages! This is a cake for a work baby shower for a colleague. It was sort of a surprise, but she knew that we are throwing her one. It would have been near impossible to hide it from her. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's a baby Simba cake from Lion King. The cake topper is made out of fondant and gumpaste. </span></div>

This saddens me and when I received a request for a Strawberry Shortcake Theme Cake... I jumped in without no hesitation. After all, I used to watch this cartoon when I was my daughter's age. </span></div><br />

Just wanted to share my latest project with you all. I have been working with Maricar, Rea's Aunt, for a couple of months now and today... I finished her tinkerbell cake.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">At first, it was a different cake altogether, tinkerbell theme but similar to one of the cakes I've done previously. here's the sketch...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IALN3uJWwgY/TVchqrQxqGI/AAAAAAAAAPI/jmjAAkMxT6U/s1600/scan0005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IALN3uJWwgY/TVchqrQxqGI/AAAAAAAAAPI/jmjAAkMxT6U/s320/scan0005.jpg" width="250" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then, I found a topper (instead of gumpaste which was more costly due to the labour involved). I emailed this photo. I believed Rea preferred this photo, so we switched the design to this one...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b0xZghZnYkw/TVciadOuvwI/AAAAAAAAAPM/D9mqrqEGMkw/s1600/tinkerbelltopper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b0xZghZnYkw/TVciadOuvwI/AAAAAAAAAPM/D9mqrqEGMkw/s200/tinkerbelltopper.jpg" width="149" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(I didn't make this one :))</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It's the perfectionist in me that wants to make it better, improve and make it perfect!!! Well, not perfect maybe but close, very close. I got an email about this particular<a href="http://yummythingy.blogspot.com/2010/07/grace-and-grace.html"> cake</a> that I've done before and love, love the new colour combo! A pretty cake!</div><br />

I was not so sure about this cake at first. Yes, it's very humorous! But, I never tried a cake like this before. This was the first time I played around with RKT (Rice Krispy Treats).
