Still remeber Anis from Kertas Puteh? She ordered her mom and dad's birthday cakes from me and now her own wedding cake. Mom and I am so touched with her support.
Anis is a designer herself, I guess so, hahah, her creations are simple, clean and yet leaving a lasting impact. I like them very much!
It was always a challenge for me to fulfill her requirement in cake decoration, ha! Luckily she used to give me a clear reference on the cake she wanted. The cakes she like are clean with minimal colour combination, looked simple but not really in implementation, just like this wedding cake with 3 tiers of plain white body and a huge ball of ribbon roses in purple shades on top.
So much queries on my head:
Firstly, purple food colour faded and changed to bluish when exposed to sunlight. So, I could't use the colour directly but to mix blue and red to obtain purple.
Secondly, the white body square cakes, I needed to make sure they were clean with sharp edges.
Thirdly, the big ball! It was my first time doing a flower ball in fact, how would I stick the flowers on it? How big the ball should be? How many pieces of ribbon roses should I prepare?
Last but not least, would the flower ball survive during transport? Should I set up the cake on the spot?
My ultimate query would be "SHOULD I ACCEPT THE ORDER?"
Aha! You know the answer by now.
Yes, I had accepted it and presented the cake on Anis' big day at MPSP Hall, Butterworth in time! :)
I'm glad that mom and I learned so much from the preparation, we had progressed further for sure!
A big thank to Anis for giving us the opportunity!
Wish you a wonderful marriage life ahead and blessed with lotsa love!
