Happy Birthday Yew Mei!

This was a last minute work.

I was given only 2 days notice but happily, I got a free hand in the design of the cake.

First of, I started with 3 stack of cake layers.  I filled each layer with white chocolate buttercream. 


One coat of buttercream - a crumb coat.


Cover the top with rosettes.  Lovely!

Lined the top and base with little icing tips.

Almost there....

Stuck little sugarpaste flowers.  Going for elegant look.

Dressed the top of cake with a sugarpaste bear and snail on a bed of roses.

Next up, the birthday girl's name accompanied by another snail.

Finished cake.


A slice of cake..


The mom send pixs of this. The happy happy birthday girl. 



I love a pix of small hands. 

and all kids like snails, no?
