Patrick and Kei's Wedding - A Heartfelt Experience



We are very thankful to Patrick and Kei for entrusting their wedding cake, souvenirs and desserts to us, it opened  another opportunity for us to extend our service into wedding events. 



We brought cupcakes to our choir's victory party at Tito Resty's place late evening. While enjoying ourselves watching our friends eat our cakes, a good friend of ours, Patrick, told us that he will be getting us to cater cakes for his wedding. We were very happy, excited and nervous at the same time.

Mocha Manga: Mocha cake with
 cream cheese filling and frosting.

Food tasting was then scheduled, different new recipes had been created for sampling. He wanted a "Tiramisu" like cupcake, a taste of some coffee and cheese in his cake. We're little timid while giving Patrick the cupcakes knowing him a good cook and has taste for foods. We gave him variations of mocha - cream cheese filled cupcake. Glad that it had a positive outcome.

After tasting, the sample cake was added in our dessert options, Mocha Manga, although we do a little variation since the couple wanted it with marshmallow frosting and topped with fondant Autumn leaf to match their motif.

Aside from souvenir cupcakes, we also created another recipe for desserts, to be served to his guest. We were able to create our first "dessert" cake, Chococaramel Mousse.






A DAY PRIOR TO WEDDING



We've stayed all night to bake and create Patrick's wedding cake, souvenir cupcakes and dessert cakes.


Patrick and Kei wanted a cupcake tower with their wedding cake on top. They wanted an autumn design for cakes, inlined with their Autumn theme. We created a white fondant cake, designed with branches and leaves on side, since they wanted the top of the cake clear and just pure white. Different mixed gel food color was used on our fondant leaves to make the colors realistic and really autumn. Souvenir cupcakes was topped with fondant "autumn" leaf.

We arrive at the reception area around 6 pm. Thankful that our friends helped us in setting up the desserts and cupcake tower.


During the dinner, it was a blissful feeling for us when we receive good feedback on our cakes. 

A tiring day for us but worth all the efforts.


CAKES ASIDE...

Aside from an overwhelming experience as a cake maker, our emotions are high during the wedding.

Seing our good friend Patrick getting married to Kei was really a heartwarming scene for us. You can really see the emotions during the wedding, not just from the bride and groom but also from the guest. We saw our friends in teary eyes especially during the vow, it was really a heartfelt. We just love the guy so much, and we were very happy witnessing him in one of the most memorable, Happiest, special day in his life. 

We were grateful that we were able to experience all of these in their wedding, not just as cake makers, but as their good friend. 

We hope and wish that their wedding day... is the day they love each other the least as a married couple.
