This adorable cake is a stunning example of what sugarcraft artists can achieve.  Louise from Cake Journal won for best novelty cake at the Scandanavian Cake Show for this adorable cake/ cupcake creation.  I adore this beautiful cake for a Christening, first birthday or a sweet sixteen celebration.  Isn’t it divine?

I’m loving the whipped cream [...]

Circus themed kids parties are all the rage right now.  I am delighted to see bright, fun decorations, stationery and games leaving our warehouse every day heading off to party central at a lucky birthday boy or girl’s home.  Creating a fun circus themed birthday party is a cinch.  Lots of bright colours should be [...]

Are you a fan of divine cupcake wrappers like I am?  If so, I’ve been scouring the libraries of cake designers, magazines, wedding blogs and more to come up with my favourite images of how the best in the business have used cupcake wrappers to transform beautiful cupcakes into spectacular works of art.  I have [...]

This yummy cake is one I created myself for a first birthday celebration.  First birthday cakes need to be spongey, not overwhelming and light on colouring for little palettes.  This cake ticks all of the boxes and looks really sweet too!  It takes all of about 10 minutes to decorate, so for busy Mum’s, it’s [...]

Happy Mother’s Day!  Baking for Mum has always been a bit of a tradition in my family, and I wanted to find a cupcake this year so that I could share the baking experience with my young kids.  The fabulous Bakerella featured these cupcakes with a flower pop recently and I thought they were so [...]

Every year I ask for a carrot cake for my birthday.  I know it isn’t the usual birthday cake choice, but to me there is no better cake than the heavy, sweet base of a carrot cake, topped with cream cheese frosting.  Your wedding cake designer might kill me, but I see no reason you [...]

Thanks Martha for this beautiful design.  Whilst Martha doesn’t have instructions on her site, it [...]

I absolutely adore cupcakes.  Anyone who has visited our store in Canberra or who has seen our website (www.pinkfrosting.com.au) will be able to see just how much I love them with one glance!  Anyway, the new Paper Eskimo Little Miss Cupcake range has now arrived at Pink Frosting and I am so delighted with how [...]

Where do you start?  Your baby is about to have a birthday and you have so much to plan.  You want his party to be perfect, but there’s just so much to consider and so little time!  Don’t let the stress of organising a kids party get out of hand!
The Pink Frosting events team has [...]

What is more Australian than a lamington on Australia Day?  The fluffy sponge centre, the sweet chocolate icing and the stuck-in-your-teeth fabulousness of dessicated coconut?  Yum.  Here is the world’s best lamington recipe, straight from the test kitchens of the Australian Women’s Weekly.  If you do nothing else really Aussie tomorrow, get cooking some lamingtons.  [...]
