.!.
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 [...]

Cake of the Week: Happy Mother’s Day Cupcake Pops

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

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 [...]

Stunning Table Linens and Settings to Inspire Your Wedding Reception

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

I just found the most wonderful website filled with stunning table linens and table settings to inspire you to design a fantasy wedding reception.  Much more realistic than Preston Bailey’s fantastical creations, the table decorations and floral centrepieces from Wildflower Linen are perfectly “do-able” for the average bride.  Just a little imagination, plenty of inspiration [...]

Nigella Christmas - A Heavenly Christmas Entertaining Guide

Saturday, November 22nd, 2008

Nigella-ness is next to Godliness in my opinion.  So, when the latest Nigella book - on Christmas entertaining - arrived in our warehouse yesterday afternoon, I simply couldn’t wait to get myself home, pour a glass of red and sit on the couch reading my new Christmas bible.  And, it’s fantastic!
It’s a wider book than [...]

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

I grew up eating some incredible traditional European cooking and as a consequence, there’s nothing more divine to me than European shortbread.  From the delicate German variety my babysitter taught us to cook to the heavy Greek Kourabiedes my Godparents family would serve at every important occasion such as Christenings, Christmas and anniversaries, this really [...]

Happy Birthday Olivia!

Friday, September 26th, 2008

My favourite star Olivia Newton-John turns 60 today. One of my first memories is listening to Olivia’s greatest hits on a long car trip with my family when I was very young. And much to my amazement, I can still recite every word of Grease and Xanadu. More than anything, I’m inspired by her loyalty [...]

Ducks, Fairy Princesses and Tutus - The Prettiest Flowergirl Costumes

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

I had a phone call from a frantic customer today whose daughter is being married this weekend. Their 5 year old flowergirl has put her foot down and has refused to participate in the wedding unless she can dress like a duck for the ceremony. They’ve managed to talk her around to walking [...]
