Flowery theme cakes are oh so pretty cause there would be flowers, frills, ruffles and all those romantic girly stuffs. Well, this was for a spring themed birthday celebration for one of my friends mother in law. it was quite a big one. So because the theme is mainly peony and hyacinth (which I never really heard of until I was told about it 
The pic above was one of the 4 peonies, in a lighter shade of pink, aurora I call it. Another was in a darker shade, in thrift / burgundy dust.
Using dust on flowers are really important as it really makes it pop out! I forgot to steam it, otherwise it would be even nicer! Yes, steam is a term used to run the dusted petalabruptlyover steam to blend the colour more evenly. It works especially well with fillers and berries.
Ive made peony a cuople of times so it wasnt really much of a problem, but for hyacinth, because Ive not even heard of it before.. Its really quite a tough one to make. I will do up a tutorial for both these flowers when I am not pulling my hair LOL. That saying, when Im free la!!
The setting of the room was so so pretty, feels like in a enchanted botanical garden. Flowers every where!! Hydrangeas especial! ly. Love them lots! This was a favour box done for each of the guests. 170 of them 
Inside the favour boxes were hydrangea and roses decorated orange poppyseed (favourite!) and marbled cupcakes.
Incase you dont know, my orange poppyseed cake is one of the favourite flavour for my customers. Well, its hard not to like because its made with the natural stuff; orange zest and freshly squeezed orange juice as well!! Real stuff yo..
Ok. till then xoxo
