Entry 7

White Daisies -Using a contrast coloured background, yellow, it shifts all the attention to the white daisies immediately. Flower themed wedding cakes have been around for a long time, but by arranging the flowers in such manner (vertical lines & swirling flowers) instead of in sprays & bouquets,it will make the cakes more IN, yet elegent. The gold coloured ribbon & the butterflies are the finishing touches to the cakes. This theme is suitable for a garden wedding. Icing Medium: Fondant + Gumpaste + Royal Icing

"Peach of LOVE"- The theme I've chosen to go for is more of a simple elegant traditional design.

The roses surrounding the cake represents love and beauty, henceforth, the whole design and theme of the cake displays an elegant finish.


Entry 22

"You may kiss the bride" - The theme that I've chosen displays a comtemporary twist. "You may kiss the bride" is perfectly shown by the two figurines that embrace the love that they share. The ritual that is anticipated by many in most weddings. The red roses and hearts surrounding the cake shows more love and happiness ,that is what most weddings are all about. The joy of knowing that you are going to spend the rest of your life with the one you utterly love.

Entry 36

Theme: JAPANESE TOPIARY LOVE
This is a story of a loyal soldier’s wedding. He has uses his swordmanship in creating topiary for his wife using his samurai swords. He has chosen swan sculpture in his topiary to symbolize his undying love and loyalty because swan is known to be mate for life. Swans are a symbol of love or fidelity because of their long-lasting monogamous relationships. The bride has a simple wedding dress and is blowing kisses to her hero. The LOVE wordings at the base are leaves from the trees. There are 2 designs of Japanese Flag at the side of the cake. One is the original country flag and the other reflect Japan as the country of the rising sun.

“Topiary is the traditional sculpting of plants into geometric figures, animals and objects. You can train plants into desired forms by pruning or you can grow plants over a wire frame and clip them to follow the shape of the frame. While some shapes, such as spirals and standards, are quite formal, others are fun and fanciful.


Entry 37

Swan Of Love ! - The ideas is to present a 3D view of the title in lake for wedding. Everyone able to view it from different angle yet able to see the love shape that form from swan.


Entry 38

Entry 39

Garden Wedding


Entry 40



Entry 41

Purple galore


Entry 42

As this is a wedding theme cake, I have chosen a "Sireh Junjung" cake that reprises a Nenas shape. "Sireh Junjung" is a very common hantaran that you usually see at a Malay Wedding. Taking the pineapple or nenas as the design, this theme will always match with any of the wedding color theme as "Sireh Junjung" is a must in exchanging the hantaran between both bride and the groom. Why the pineapple? It's the most common "Sireh Junjung" design that you may see as part of the hantaran. In other words, this cake actually works as 3-in1: Sireh Junjung, Pineapple shape hantaran and last but not least it's a cake!


Entry 43

I totally agree with Beldandy... a real sweat to choose the nicest of the nicest!

They're all nice.... it's going long race! I think you should not just choose those that are the best quality, or best photography, but the ones that "appeal" to you the most, the color you like, the type of flowers you like, the whole cake in particular that appeals to your palate. Hope that helps.

This is really exciting, like seeing the progress of national election Vote vote vote, members!!!
