One Piece Chopper Chiffon Cake

Anyone loves One Piece?? I used to chase the anime over nights! That was before I had kids =p Chopper must be the cutest Reindeer ever! Here is my Chopper Chiffon Cake 💖

Anyway for this cake, it was rather stressful as the top (hat) is much bigger than the base, so it wasn't really so stable. I wouldn't want to make this again LOL. Thank God the recipient was still thrilled! =) Ah I miss those One Piece days!

With lots of love,

Susanne =)

Btw Deco Chiffon Cake Basics is finally back in stock in book depository! Those who messaged me, you might want to check it out! =)

Mermaid Tail Chiffon Cake

I love turquoise colour very much so it was a joy to make this Mermaid Chiffon Cake with pretty mermaid tail and purple shells, inspired by the Little Mermaid. I was a little reminded of Legend of the Blue Sea show which I loved earlier =p.

Briefly, it was made by sculpting and cutting a chiffon cake into the shape of a tail, and then covering it with scales cut from chiffon sheet cakes of different colours. I used marshmallow cream to stick the pieces on. It was very tedious as you can imagine, to assemble the scale piece by piece from circle cut-outs from chiffon sheet cakes. It was a lot of work but thankful cake was very well-received, which brings the most joy =).

This is actually the 2nd time I am making a Mermaid Tail Chiffon Cake! The last cake was pink in scheme for a close mummy friend a year ago, still in my backlogs.. oops!

I've been really busy with kids, so sorry for less posts lately. Thank God for his grace in sustaining daily!

With lots of love,
Susanne

Pink Turtle Seawaves Chiffon Cake (Vanilla-Pandan with Blue pea flowers)

This very sweet-looking chiffon cake was made for my mummy friend's lovely daughter Victoria!

This is my 4th chiffon turtle cake! I made it for a close friend last year, and for my nephew, and the cake ended up in my 2nd chiffon cookbook Deco Chiffon Cakes, and even made the book cover! Something about the big adorable goggly eyes I think!

This will be a short post, as I have shared the full recipe in Deco Chiffon Cakes (below), including picture tutorials on how to pipe and bake the 3D turtle.

Here, I was happy to make a pink turtle finally as it was the original cartoon version I had envisioned (and pink is my favorite colour! =p).

Just for fun, I took a video of the seawaves cake spinning. Warning: may cause sea sickness =p


Thankful it was well-received!

With lots of love,
Susanne

‘Legend of the Blue Sea’ Pink Octopus Chiffon Cake

Made the cute pink octopus from Legend of the Blue Sea which just ended last night. I rarely watch Kdramas but this was really really nice, sweet and touching... Love happy endings! =) 

I decorated with pearls (tears) and played with a new wave front pattern over the sea on the base chiffon.

For those interested in making a chiffon cake octopus, you can refer to my previous post Kaya chiffon cake with Yam chiffon baby octopus. I have also shared various kind of seawaves chiffon patterns in Deco Chiffon Cakes and Creative baking: Chiffon Cakes.

I didn't make the cake for myself of course though I like the show very much. It's made for a friend who's a LOTBS fan =).

With lots of love,

Susanne
