Busy, Busy, Busy!!

I think the title sums up our weekend pretty well! lol. It was another double wedding weekend in the Sugarbird kitchen, which meant a few late nights but some very rewarding final products!!

First up was classic 3-tiered wedding cake. This bride went a unique route however and decided to go with a pretty pink and elegant black colour palette. A pink wedding cake was a first for us but we LOVED how it turned out! After creating the bridal shower cake in the same style a couple of months ago, the bride loved it so much that she asked us to do her wedding cake using the same inspiration. We've include the bridal shower cake pic again to see how one style and colour scheme can inspire two different cakes :)

First, the wedding cake!


Next, the bridal shower cake we created that inspired the above design :)


Then it was time for another wedding! This time the bride went the cupcake route and decided on red velvet with cream cheese icing, and banana with chocolate icing. We also created a mini cake for the top of the cupcake tower with a huge purple flower in full bloom. Pics of the display all put together on are on the way! But in the meantime, here are some of the delicious cupcakes with their yummy swirls of frosting.

First is red velvet...


And the banana :)

Tinkerbell and Baby Showers!

We've said it before, but we LOVE making treats for children's parties! It's so much fun getting to incorporate our own twist on to the theme of the party. And when that theme is Tinkerbell, we get to bring out the super bright colours, glitter, and of course...magic! We had so much fun with this first party. It was for a first birthday party. The proud mom chose cupcakes for the occasion which meant we got to come up with all kinds of fun designs! For Tinkerbell we of course had to tie in the mischievous little fairy herself. We also created some sparkly magic wands, dainty little flowers and butterflies, glittery stars and of course, her cute little pom-pommed shoes! We started with our lemon cupcakes and chocolate cupcakes and covered them all in our deliciously sweet vanilla buttercream, tinted in all of Tinkerbell's favourite colours. Then we added on all of our magical little decorations and voila! Tinkerbell cupcakes ready for the birthday girl! Our ...

Retirements and Birthdays!

Happy Sunday everyone! Today's post features some of our recent retirement and birthday cakes. We LOVE doing these types of cakes as we're able to bring in elements of each person to truly personalize each cake. These cakes are a lot of work and take hours to complete all of the little handmade decorations but we absolutely love seeing the finished products and seeing and hearing reactions from our clients :). The first cake up is a retirement cake for a lucky guy who just bought a new truck. We recreated the truck out of cake and filled it to the brim with items that he loves. From golf clubs to guitars, spaghetti to baseball, this cake is truly a reflection of all of his favourites! We even included a garbage can full of work related items he'll no longer need :P Next up is a retirement cake for for an employee who plays bass guitar in a band. We created an almost life-size replica of his guitar in cake and included a passport and boarding pass to represen...

Playing Catch-up!

Yikes! To say we're a bit behind in our blog would be an understatement. It's been a crazy few months, but we're super excited to get back into posting updates of our work, and sharing everything that we've done over the past year. This post will be a quick look into some of our favourite cakes and treats that we've finished lately. And stay tuned for a very busy spring and summer! This first cake was a super cute heart-shaped quilting cake. This was quite a difficult and time-consuming cake, but we LOVED the way it turned out. It was definitely like building and putting together a puzzle from scratch :) These next two cakes are two of our most recent tiered cakes. They're both so unique and elegant and we're always so excited to see how the final product comes together. Both of these cakes required the use of new techniques and we love any excuse to practice new and creative ways of creating the requested designs :). This first cake was a beau...
