as i told you earlier, i ended up making 3 tiers cake, instead of cupcakes. and out of the 3-tiers, i bake only one of the tiers. which was the base, butter cake. these are the ingredients for the butter cake. i baked this on thursday.
joyce bought lots of oranges but i used only one because she said, i will need a firm butter cake, not a moist one. so that it can withstand the weight of the two fruit cakes.

these is the mixing bowl. as you can see, it almost overflowed because the batter is too much. it's a 12 inch butter cake.
oh ya, i did some blueberry-filling-cupcakes too, so that it's easier for the guests to eat. and also, another reason, because Joyce is imagining her wedding cake will be surrounded by cupcakes. the paper cupcakes are specially imported from China. haha. actually, Joyce bought this back from Beijing. arent they cute?
June helped out with the cupcakes.
These are the fruit cakes. Joyce baked these earlier and they can last longer because the fruits are soaked with rum, a few days before.
the cakes are not as high. they are just as tall as my palm. ermm..or my hand is big? hehe..
and these are the cakes that i have to cover with fondant icing.

this is the decorating on the first tier cake. and on top of the cake is this couple, which represent Michael and Joyce. Kim was asking, why Joyce bought orang putih one? haha..
ta-daa..reprensenting the cake!
you see the big pink hearts on the 3rd tier? the purpose is to cover all the cacatness of the fondant.

and those cuppies after decorating with cream. i went to Joyce home early in the morning to put the cream on and that's the final part of preparing the cakes.
at first, i have no idea how to decorate those cuppies. Joyce has no decorating pipe, and she bought only the plastic piping bags. what i did was just pipe the cream out on the cake. i dont know what shape they are, but they dont look presentable. luckily she has those little hearts and silver dragees, and they look nice on the cream. dont they? =)
this is how they look in the church hall.
