caramaena:

Thank You!! :-D

kirsten:

Thanks!! :-D I was so pleased with how it turned out...and you know what? I believe that this girl was the one to replace that 'other one'. It was a last minute order & I was able to work it in.

Adorn the Cake, Enhance her Night?

If it doesn't happen, do I get my money back? :)

Hiya Jin! How's my very sweet friend doing?

Dino said...

jin said...

dan:

Heehee!
I can't promise anything...except that anyone who buys my pastries has more sex after.
HAHA!

Thanks for checking up on me. I've still got time for blogging so I must be doing ok.
Right?!

katy:

Thanks! Me too!

You know, I've made this same type of wedding cake soooo many times, but it's always ALL white. I am so sick of making it ALL white! :-P
I was thrilled when she asked if I could use dark accent colours!
:-)

What a masterpiece. Brava!

jimbizzle said...

Damn! That's as good a looking cake as anything I've ever seen one of the Food Network Challenges!

Incredible! I wish I had skills like that.

jin said...

evi:

Thank You kindly!! :-)
I am beginning to really enjoy the small ornate cakes.....good thing, too. More people are having small weddings.

jimbo:

Aww, aren't you sweet! Thanks! :-)

Well...you don't need my type of skills mr. awesome musician! I can sing (a little) but in this lifetime every single instrument on the planet is against me.
At least every one I've tried so far...although I still want to give the drums a go one day.

..... Eye of newt, and toe of frog, wool of bat, and tongue of dog, adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting :P

Cakes = yummmmmmmmm

That blue piping on the flowers would have taken me a year.

That looks like a serious amount of work.

Gnat.

Unknown said...

Flavors please!
I can't dig into it until I know what's under the covers... One of those "don't judge a book by its cover" gals here... ;)

See, I'm not the only one who thinks you should go on Food Network Challenge.

The question is, would delicate little curli-qs and flowers survive a 959.69 mile drive to New Jersey, the middle of freakin' summer AND a tinymunkee budget, or should I just take the free cake the wedding place throws in? Hee.

Time to order another box of cookies.

gareth:

LOL!
I'm a good witch...I don't cast those types of spells...well...unless someone really pisses me off!
;-)

BWA-haaahahahahaaa.

jin said...

cp:

Heehee!
Um...took me about 35 minutes to decorate the whole thing. Looks WAY harder than it is...course I pipe pretty damn fast. LOL.

jin said...

gnat:

The roses used to take the most time. I used to make them myself...I had to charge 4 times the price of what I can purchase the plain white gumpaste roses for. Now I just buy them & add the accents.

Unless the couple wants buttercream roses...those I always make myself. That only takes me about 1 minute per 5-6 large roses.

jin said...

jewels:

LOL!!!
Ahhh....I have to *think* about that.....

*jin tries to remember*

I know the bottom tier was Marble Cake with Mocha French Buttercream filling...

Damned if I am blanking on the top tier...
I've had so many cakes the last 2 weeks.
It may have been Poppyseed Cake but don't quote me on that!
;-)

jin said...

ace:

LMAO!
It would survive the trip...however, the hot summer months are not a great time to drive that distance. The tiny munkee budget might be a problem *chuckle* Um...the delivery would add up to quite a lot. lol.
I get $200 for delivery to Chicago, which is under 200 miles away plus hotel accomodations.
I did have a bridal party pick up a wedding cake and drive it 6 hours to Minnesota once! LOL! They were nervous as hell! LMAO!

I'm sorry but the blue highlights on the bottom tier are slightly uneven, I'm afraid I have to give you a 9.98 on presentation instead of your usual 10. For-shame Jin!

Otherwise, Hope you're well :)

*jin hangs her head in shame*

Poor poor jin she starts to cry
Rich is such a mean mean guy
She thinks about jumping off a bridge
then instead goes to the fridge
she pulls out a luscious rapberry cream pie
and shoves the whole thing in Rich's eye.

*jin stares at Rich's cream covered face & starts to GIGGLE*
