So, I have lots and lots of makes to share with you again, but first I'd like to tell you about a client of mine. A few months ago, she contacted me with regards to providing the cake pops for her son's naming ceremony. Her idea was to have cake pops to represent what she'd like him to be and accomplish in life. Such a lovely sentiment, I couldn't help but get excited at the prospect!
First and foremost, she wanted him to be happy:
|
Smilie Cake pops |
She also wanted him to do well at school, and find love and be loved:
|
Glitter Heart cake pops |
|
Mortar board/Graduation cake pops |
She wanted him to travel, and represent his heritage (a mixture of British and Malay - hence the placing of the hearts):
|
Globe cake pops |
She wanted him to do well at sports (particularly rugby!):
|
Rugby Ball cake pops |
And finally, she wanted him to reach old age and find someone to settle down with (alas I didn't take a photo of the grandpa and granny pops I made, so here are just the grannies!):

Don't you think that's just the most adorable and inspired idea? I loved making them, especially the globes. Was a bit of a challenge to get the continents in the right place, but I think I did okay - hee hee!
I received a heart-warming thank you that brought a tear to my eye - makes my job all the more worthwhile:
"Just dropping an email to say thank you so much for the amazing pops :) They are
more breathtaking than I could ever imagine and the details are exquisite! You even
made extra which is very generous and kind of you.
You've made my wee man's Naming Ceremony that extra bit special. My guests are in
for a special treat and they'll be in awe. Thank you again so much :)
You are truly wonderfully gifted xxx"
And now for the rest of my makes this past month. If we're honest, I've been going a little glitter-mad. I just can't stop myself, it's like an addiction!
