All Things Bold!


This week I was once again flat out- not only because it was the first weekend of spring- and all the girls wanting to be "Spring Brides", but because it was also River Fire- a night where Brisbane turns on a Fantastic fireworks display- that if you have a carefully choose your reception venue- you will receive the 1/2 hour+ of fabulous fireworks for you and your guests to enjoy Free of Charge!

So with Everyone wanting the best vantage of the fireworks for their reception, I had many cakes for the city, along the river and also up at Mt Cootha.

But by far the boldest reception set up I have seen so far- was at Snug Harbour- Dockside, where The couple had chosen a Bollywood Theme for their Special day.
The Team at vogue Events did a fantastic Job, the colour and theming really set the mood.
The Bride had an intolerance to Dairy- so her entire cake was dairy free, and made with Free range eggs. With over 2 1/2 kg of pure Dark couverture going into the three tier design, this cake was a chocoholics dream!
Gone are the days where your dietary requirements mean that you can only eat bland rubbery desserts! This cake was divine- I even offered samples to some of my consultation clients this week- and had I not informed them that there was no dairy in the cake, they wouldn't have known.
With the entire cake smothered in a rich chocolate icing, and then the sides with angled topped chocolate chards- this cake was completed wit a bright array of fresh blooms! It looked so great! I hope they enjoyed it- as much as I did creating it!

Dietary Requirements


With the increasing instances of food allergies and intolerances- I am often asked to create cakes that suit these needs.
Being a Chef- I am happy to create cakes to suit the dietary requirements of my clients- and their guests. Whilst Coeliac- or Gluten intolerant- is the most common- I can help with Dairy free, Egg free, Nut free,Vegan- you name it!

This weekend I had a lovely bride- whose niece traveled all the way from Canada to be a flower girl in her wedding. The little girl had a severe allergy to Eggs- and in keeping with the cake design- I created a batch of egg free chocolate cupcakes- so she too could enjoy the wedding cakes on the day!
These cakes were light and fluffy- with a rich chocolate flavour! If you didn't know any better- you would never know that they were missing eggs.
Gone are the days of awful cakes to fit dietary requirements! I really enjoy creating decadent flavours- with real ingredients- not chemical substitutes- so my clients can eat their cake without worrying about their health issues!

So if you are looking for a fabulous tasting and looking cake- to meet your diet needs- Just ask- you will be pleasantly surprised by the wonderful- and sinful- flavours I have to offer!
