I was introduced to the world of food way before I can remember. My grandmother who raised me up cooks the best homemade meals ever. And my classmates before would remember the yummy packed lunch prepped by my ‘ ‘Nanay’ (mother) dear. They were delighted as I share some with them. So now i have my own family, beloved recipes are passed down to me. And of course i have to tweak some ingredients and modernized the menus. The results are delicious, validated by full and happy tummies of my loved ones. I’m planning to post the recipes soon so please keep in touch.
My favorite theme to make in my shop is a Disney inspired customized treat. I made my first “Disney” custom cake which was for my daughter’s birthday, that was also the first time I applied some skills I learned from Wilton school of cake decorating. I finished their courses from basic sugar piping to the more advance fondant and gumpaste class. But, let’s go back to the treats… ofcourse, I didn’t begin as a pro, we all have to start somewhere and that means being an amateur. I was ambitious to create an edible slipper of Cinderella and handling fondant wasn’t that easy. Tropical climate plus high humidity make it more challenging. Yes, I successfully made one, but pardon the lack of photo for evidence. I must have carelessly deleted the photos from my old laptop.
So… I just have to show you my more recent creations. A favorite motif is Mickey Mouse, it’s commissioned a couple of times and even a wedding cake with Mickey and Minnie on it. And then, there’s Elsa and Anna, I was humming “Do you wanna build a snowman?” while finishing these sugar artworks. Plus, my daughter loves Frozen, too.
if you can dream it, you can do it.

Custom sweets and orders from first quarter of 2015.
I accepted fewer orders beginning of 2015 due to time constraints but that doesn’t mean i have no time to post them. So please enjoy viewing my cakes and pastries as much as I enjoyed creating them.
Most of these designs are requested by the clients, or sometimes they present me with their chosen theme and help them come up with a good cake design of their liking.
Okay, too many photos right?! I will just have to share in the following post then.
Our family/friend gatherings and travel are Always accompanied with eating. The best part of the thrill is trying out new cuisine from another place. Am sharing the highlights of our food trips across the globe. Food trips from the most fascinating cities and praise worthy hotels/restaurants.
Prepare your palates…
More random photos… just getting started 🙂
So not to overwhelm you, I will post more pics on part 2 of my Food Trips.
See you again! 🙂
“You can’t be sad while eating a cupcake” it’s the ultimate comfort food (along with ice cream) and baking them is my favorite past time. It’s relaxing, comforting, and the sweet aroma from freshly baked goodies is heaven…

here are some photos from our humble kitchen. And maybe you can check out my other sweet creations in our official FB page or in this blog’s album.
For the frosting, I’m adding one special ingredient which is a jar of Marshmallow creme. And that will give the perfect icing to this soft and delicate white cupcakes.

We gain miles by flying frequently, traveling across the country or overseas. But the most rewarding part is having a window seat and watch in awe how clouds transform into magnificent shapes and mountain like figures.
I wonder if flight attendants could still have the time & luxury to gaze at the sky. Most people perhaps are occupied or too busy to see such beautiful creations. Too bad they’re missing a lot…
God, you never cease to amaze me. Your love/compassion is as limitless as the sky you are now showing me…
This is True Love.
Stories, tales and legends depict love in glorious ways but NO love is greater than this. None will ever be.
I believe Holy Week is Jesus dying in the cross and redeeming us. The cross which is a symbol of that ultimate Love.
We are loved, perfectly loved by someone who died for us…
And I wish to commemorate it not just today but everyday. I’m not posting this to preach, I’m no saint. But I’m hoping to remind everyone of this True Love.
I’m feeling more motivated lately, by inspiring success stories from graduates and board passers especially the ones who come from humble beginnings. I can relate entirely with Cinderella like stories. I wasn’t born with a silver spoon either. Everything required hard work and seeing my grandmother who worked from day to night to support me was one of the hurdles I had to face. After my beloved grandfather died who was very close to me, other relative/s moved in & turned out to be a little hostile. Quite a resemblance which even my daughter remarked, “now I know why you like Cinderella mommy.” Life back then was bleak and most people doubted and looked down on me.

I was focused while doing what I love – joining art/acting classes for free (as a scholar) then dancing in our Pas des tous & Cheerleading school clubs. Then, I was told that I will never make it, “you will never go to the ball” – something like that, the more I fixed my eyes on achieving my dreams. Like fairytales there will always be villains and they are destined to put us down. But they also serve as our motivation. Yes villains are mean and rude but i thought who are they to stop me.
“where there is kindness, there is goodness. where there is goodness there is MAGIC…”
I may be hurt, but I’m determined, as they say the best revenge is massive success. while my best weapon is praying. I’m sharing a snippet of my story, we all have our struggles in life, mine wasn’t that exceptional. We are defined by how we get up each time we fall. And always believing that there’s a pot of gold in the end of the rainbow. I hope this may brought inspiration to some.
