Happy Birthday Missy Xiao Hui!!

You can never find a more soft spoken, generous and kind lady as my friend, Lea.   I take this opportunity to congratulate her on the safe delivery of her second boy recently!   She will have her hands full with two boys now, they will tax her good patience many times over but I know Lea, when the tough gets going, the going gets tough!  All the best dear Lea for she has take up the calling to be a SHAM (stay at home mom) to care and provide the best care to her two boys.  I envy her so.

Now let's talk about cake which this blog is all about.   The cake featured here is for Lea's sister whose birthday was celebrated in August.  Lea ordered this cake and have it carted 5 hours to her hometown in Johor.  That's speak volumes, the love and care Lea has for her family.

At first, Lea planned something naughty.  Like a boob cake with lace and frills.  Then she decided that it would not be suitable afterall.  Finally, she settled on sweet and nice.  As usual, she gave me a free rein to do whatever I want.  Am really grateful for the trust she's shown to me.   I am able to let my creative juice flow.

It was not hard, I made plenty of sugar paste flowers with my flower cutters using sweet pastel colours.  I propped them on toothpicks.   The cake is yellow butter cake with lemon curd cream. 

Here is the result.  Hope you enjoy it!
