Happy Father’s Day!

One of the many things that the US differs from Brazill is the celebration date of Father’s Day. Down there people celebrate their Dads on the second sunday of August.

Even though is a bit soon for my countrymen, it is never too late to say Happy Father’s Day to all the american dads around!

Congratulations to you all!

 

Rustic Cake

Hey guys!

To close this week with a golden key, let me show you my buttercream rustic cake.

This imprint technique is pretty simple, you just use a fork to mess your perfectly smooth buttercream (yes… this can be harsh… LOL). You can use this technique anytime you want to achieve a wood-like texture, for example.

Although is not a cake made for a hot/humid weather (the buttercream can overreact, decide to leave the building and just melt when under heat) on a tempered climate it can easily be outside of your fridge for up to 3 days (depending on your choice of filling as well, of course).


About:

  • 6 inches x 4,5 inches cake
  • Buttercream finish
  • Piped roses (Tip 103)
  • Piped leaves (Tip 352)

The Lambeth Wedding Cake (Project 05)

 

And the wedding cake is finally done!

The week was devoted to this project and I can say that it turned out really good. I’m proud.

Again, is more a question on patience, technique and a bit of hand strength (uuuf).

About:

  • 10 inches, 8 inches, 6 inches
  • Yellow Cake with Pistachios Dulce de Leche filling
  • Royal Icing strings and details
  • Total decorating time: 12h

Mother’s Day

Today we celebrate Mother’s Day and of course I could not miss the opportunity to honor mine.

This is a small tribute to my mother and all the mothers out there whose hearts bear so much love that it overflows in the way of hugs, kisses and worries

Thanks for all the support and for making all my decisions easier.
