cute favour ideas...!!

here are some cute favours that i have made recently... i really love the idea of giving something cute and sweet as a favour rather than something that will just get thrown away... it is much better to eat it!

Wandin Hunter Valley open day

 

it was super lovely to work with lily and bramwell again at the Wandin Hunter Valley open day... again! i whipped up this pretty yellow, white and cream display table with the help of lily and bramwell's table and props. it was a really lovely day- it was lovely meeting so many new brides, the other vendors and it was lovely working with wandin again- it is such a gorgeous venue with fantastic food, wine and staff.

and a big thanks to catherine from lily and bramwell for her awesome photos!

aqua and peach dessert table

 

 

i just realised that i have never posted this pretty dessert table that i made over a year ago for the super sweet corrine and brad, i also arranged a cute cheese table with things that i picked up from the farmers market that morning...!

shop update

so i havent really had any shop updates because i havent had any news... things have been taking alot lot lot lot lot longer then i ever imagined... *sigh* we have the da and design sorted but we just cant actually start any work because umm the suspended ceiling isnt actually suspended.. wonderful! well it isnt the end of the world, the main issue is that it is a strata building so on one hand we dont have to pay for it all but instead we also cant just call someone up to demolish it we have to go through the whole painful, extreeeemly long process of reporting, quotes, owners corporation meetings, levies, insurance claims.. and hopefully one day it actually just gets fixed... will let you know as soon as we can start work!

childrens cakes.. and 30 yr olds!

some cute designs from a little while ago that i havent blogged yet...

vintage fire engine!

a little while ago i designed this super cute vintage fire truck cake to match this super gorgeous imprintables invitation! i always love love love working with imprintables!

pink and peach!

a sweet little wedding cake!

oh the ruffles!

oh the ruffles! this is my first attempt at doing a ruffle cake, i have been turning people down because i dont like to do other peoples designs.. buuut... i think i was able to make it my own ..  it turned out really pretty and I couldnt stop sighing over it! it was for a kitchen tea but think it would also suit a wedding, engagement or christening.. and it would also suit a simple topper like a little heart on a stick style... anyway i will be up for ruffles from now on! 

and another addition..!

my cakes are easily broken down, mix and matched..  size? colour? flowers? piped pattern? done!

instagram... so hot right now

 

i know instagram was so hot right now about a year ago, but i think it is still the place to be! it is super great to be able to post pics of my work as i go and it is nice to be able to share more personal aspects of my life- places i love in newcastle, things i adore.. and coffee i drink ... !

i also love it as a distraction, as soon as i pick up  my phone i will check what is happening.. it is nice that peoples streams dont get filtered for you so i actually get to follow people and it is good to know that people are actually seeing your content as well- everyone wins! 

anyway if you want to see more pics of coffee.. and maybe some cake pics too! follow my instagram! @hellonaomicakes !!!
