Buttercream Cakes

Buttercream cakes frosted in many ways - horizontal stripes, ombre, petals and rosettes. All hand piped with love. On a side note, we noticed that buttercream is making a comeback in the cake decorating world. It is a classic and I'm actually a fan. We are definitely excited to frost your cakes.

Stop and Smell the Roses

Back to the daily grind today. Don't forget to stop and smell the roses.

Here's a recent order for a birthday cake with hand-piped buttercream roses. There are different mediums for decorating like fondant, buttercream or marshmallow icing. Piping is an old school technique but it's always a classic. We just love it!

Chinese Red Rose

Sweet Success had a set-up for an 80th Chinese birthday two weekends ago. Prepping for the Rose Cake and 150 individually boxed Rose Cupcakes had the Sweet Success team up 'til wee hours for the past couple of days before the event.

For the Rose Cake, the red cloth submitted by the client was our inspiration on decorating the cake. It was a red garment with rose pattern. This was also the cloth they will be using in making the celebrant's gown. It took us a whole day decorating the cake as we have to make dozens of roses using fondant strips.

Nevertheless, we are happy how the cake and cupcakes turned out. It was all worth it!
