Joshua's 12th Birthday Rainbow Surprise Cake with Macarons

Joshua was celebrating his milestone birthday, his mom/my friend Kathryn ordered this cake for his 12th birthday party.

This was a challenging cake in many ways.

First, it was a rainbow cake with Swiss meringue buttercream.

Next, I had to hunt for the extra long Kit Kats big packs of M&Ms. 

They not available everywhere, only at selected supermarkets.

Lastly, I had to make macarons, on top of baking a cake!

Knowing how much the boys enjoyed the cake and macs, really brought a smile to my face! ^_^

Happy 12th birthday, Joshua!

Pretty in Pink Birthday Cupcakes for My Buddies

I made these for my buddies when we went out to celebrate one of our birthdays.

Around this time, I had just started making Swiss Meringue Buttercream 

and I was experimenting with different flavours.

The colour of the buttercream belies the flavour. 

My buddies couldn't guess the flavour! Hehehehe ^_^ 

The butterceam was coconut flavour. The cake was vanilla.

As always, glad to bake for family and close friends.
