Hantaran - blue and white

I was given free hand with this one and I had an idea to do something simple and elegant for this hantaran cake. Blue and white was the theme and I hope the bride liked it.

White and pink Hantaran

An elegant pink and off white hantaran cake. I like the way this looks, simple and elegant.

Gingerbreadmen with songket

So another idea that Nadia had for another of her hantaran dulangs was gingerbread men since it is the Christmas season and her now hubby loves gingerbread from what I was told. To give it a localised feel to this, gingerbread men with songket. I absolutely love this. They are very unique I must say.

Nadia's Rustic Genoise

If I may say so myself, this was the brilliant idea of my friend who recently got married, no sugarpaste, formal stuff for the hantaran but a more rustic, yummylicious multilayerd victoria sponge for her wedding hantaran. This was initially meant to be topped with strawberries but it is cherry season and I called her the other day asking whether she'd be open to having "white" cherries on the top to give it that richness. She agreed and here it is! beautiful beautiful. Heard it was a hit with the boy's family. Congratulations Nadia and Putra!

Hantaran : Sea Shells

A seashell themed hantaran for a good friend's engagement ceremony. Was a tight deadline cause she only got back from the UK a couple of days before the ceremony. I know in most tutorials, people are taught how to make seashells from silicone moulds but I did not have any. So had fun moulding these seashells from scratch. I think they look absolutely pretty. Her fiancee I heard did not want to cut the cake. I think this the shells looked nice with the champagne bubble piping at the base.

Hantaran : Lace

This is the beginning of an incredibly busy weekend. All weddings and birthdays seem to fall on the 10th of July. Anyways a hantaran cake requested from one of my faithful clients..... he already had something in mind so my job was to replicate and add in my own flavour cause we all know that all bakers have they own style and interpretation.....I absolutely love the lace appliques.

Aina's hantaran cakes - what a beauty!

I posted Aina's hantaran cakes a few posts before this. I made a base cake and she put the finishing touch i.e a few shocking pink gerberas on the top of the cake. This is a photo of the "finished" product. Fantastic! a beauty!Thanks Aina for the picture.
