Cake Orders

Well since last month I have been getting down to business. I have since launched a Face Book business page called Lil's Little Cakes and have ordered my very first business cards. And you guessed it, my business name is Lil's Little Cakes. Which is kinda funny because my first two professional cake orders I have received are for big cakes. A little more on them later. I've also signed up for a business seminar and have booked in for another cake course with contemporary cakes.

I'm glad to finally have things happening.

Thanks to my cousin (thanks Julie) I discovered Vistaprint.com.au it's a great site where you can create business cards, sticker, magnets, invitations and just about any thing with your logo of choice. My lovely friend Grace helped create my business logo (see right of page) and I used this to create my first business cards. I will also later down the track get some stickers for my cake boxes and maybe some fridge magnets to give out to customers. Heck I might even splash out on a coffee mug lol. Hopefully the new cards will arrive in the next few days.

My new Face Book business page is going well. I have 20 people following me so far and as a result have received my first two cake orders as a result. I hope to put pictures of all my work onto it, to hopefully grow my profile.

Now to my current cake order. The cake was ordered for a lady's birthday which has a 'Twilight' theme. The Cullen family from the movie has a lovely family crest, which is to be the feature of the cake. The cake will be black and silver so will look spectacular. I will definitely posting pictures once i'm finished. The cake is for about 60 people so will be a large oval to complement the shape of the crest.

I might also have an engagement cake to do soon too.

But also in the meantime I have a couple of orders of Valentines Day cupcakes which i'm going to decorate in pastal colours with flowers and hearts. The lucky ladies will hopefully be very happy with their little chocolate love cupcakes.

My next cake course is coming up at the end of next month. It will be a two day course working on life size sugar flowers, like roses and lillies etc. I can't wait. Jackie is a great teacher at contemporary cakes plus i also get a couple of days off work, so that's a bonus.

Well i've got ganache to make so I will post some new pictures soon.

Lil.
