Japanese Peony and Spider Orchids

>> Saturday, January 15, 2011

FINALLY, the call came...... 'Kak Ainee, kelas saya hujung minggu ada cancellation; akak nak join tak?' .

I flipped; FINALLY...... a chance to attend Shahril's class....

I cancelled a previous engagement and said 'yes' .

The day came..... I was excited and also nervous.... Excited coz' I have always wanted a chance to learn from the best sugar artist for flowers (KL) and nervous coz' the LAST time I really sat dow and made flowers (other than a rose ) was more than ten years ago... Warned Shahril that I would be one of the slowest....

Anyhow after 2 days of kneading, rolling and frilling  and lots more, my peony 'grew' from petal to petal.... my spider orchid took shape; my frangipani twisted in place.... and the leaves cut, shaped and dusted....

Here are my humble offerings ...... sorry no individual/progress pictures of the orchid, capers and frangipani... simply forgot as I was in a great rush to catch up with the others.



Here's the team... thanks ladies.. I sure had lots of fun learning with all of you. Next session with Shahri, don't forget to count me in...


Here is the final bouquet (minus the frangipani -- no time to include)........



















And here's how I later presented it on a cake ... at the wedding exhibition......



Comments please....

Weddng Carnival 2011

This time, the call came from another friend... Yana..... with her kind offer to share her booth at the wedding carnival/exhibition at Shah Alam.  "Yana will do the chocolates and akak buat lah wedding cakes" ... Yes .... No.... then Don't know...... finally yes again.

And as usual, could only squeeze in the preparations only within the same week.... That means we could only start on making the dummy cakes on Monday.... Friday was the exhbition..... and so ... very little sleep again..... same old story eh?????


Ladies....and Gentlemen :

We humbly present the Hometeam and the cakes :-








The cake stand looks beautiful right ?....... it stayed in the box for 4 years... bought it at a exhibition from a French company.... (satu sen tak nak kurang.... mahal gila but NICE right??)


A note to add --- recieve confirmed orders at the fair already .... Alhamdullilah.....

And last but not least; a word of thanks and gratitude to Yana and Chaq for giving us the opportunity to join them at the fair and the support they gave all this while.
