December is a month which is busy , full of celebration and full of happines month to me. Why this month is a busy to me because I have to prepare two cakes in a month for my lovely husband and lovely son. Their birthday is 3 days difference.

Today is my husband's Birthday. I baked this marble cheese cake for him.

Last Saturday , I had prepared a birthday party for my little prince. This is my little prince's birthday cake. Initially I planned to draw “BEN10” for him (one of his favorite cartoon character). When I get ready wanted to draw, he told me that he want his favorite online game's character -- Maple Story -- Mushroom and Maple leaf. So this the cake requested by him.

After take the photo on the left , feel the surface too empty (greedy mum) ha ha.... so buy some gummy and put on the cake surface to make the cake full with chocolate and gummy.

So sorry , Mummy first time draw character on cake so will not be that pretty as cake shop. There are plenty room to improve. Next year mummy will draw better.

I learn how to draw the lovely character on cake from Christine. and Anncoo Thank you Christine and Anncoo.
