Grace and John's Wedding

Grace and John's wedding was a really memorable event.

It marks our first foray into baking for weddings and our first baking collaboration.

Grace was our ex-colleague and a fellow baker. She wanted to bake her own desserts for her wedding party at the Rider's Cafe but needed some help. So Sel and Wei happily volunteered to take care of the wedding cake and some other cupcakes. What are colleagues for, right? And Sel had to-die-for carrot cake recipe that we can't get enough of, so Grace decided that would be the treat for her important guests at the wedding.


And phew, luckily we were used to working under pressure and tight deadlines (we work in the creative industry!). Creating the cakes from start to finish, to the point of presenting it onto the dessert line was an eye-opening experience for us both. We learnt that while every detail has to be planned, and that things never quite go as planned! But of course, it turned out all well and rustic-ally perfect, amidst the warm and fuzzy country-style interior of the restaurant. See it for yourself in the pictures.

So, that was the story of how we got started. We are proud to say we bake only what we love and bake with love.


What we made:
  • Carrot Cake & Cupcakes
