The kind of cakes that you see and just want to stick your finger into that swirly icing These are a cross between a fairycake and a muffin as they are quite big and as can be seen from the photos look reallt effective. Left plain they look gorgeous but the addition of a rose heart or butterfly or anything else that takes your fancy makes them more personal and that extra bit special. Coupled with a range of fab cake cases you are looking at a perfect sweet gift.I am constantly experimenting with new flavours and have so far made a very very chocolatey one with chocolate frosting and a luscious lemon flavour wit a lemon frosting and a traditional vanilla. Next on the list is the ever popular red velvet and I plan to increase t... 2010-2-23 14:49:33 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#58221 With Mothers Day next month why not be original and rather than send flowers how about a lovely gift basket or some beautifully decorated fairy cakes or cookies Book now to avoid disappointment 2010-2-11 18:36:03 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#53378 I have just purchased some gorgeous clear acetate boxes with gold bases perfect for holding 4 fairy cakes. These make fab Christmas gifts when tied with organza ribbon and at 16310 each make perfect and affordable end of term tokens for teachers. I can now also prepare gift boxes of fairy cakes with just 6 cakes in please ask for more info. as ever I will do my best to accomodate all price ranges and budgets 2009-11-25 15:36:55 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#53374 Last month I made some fairy cakes for the charity Future Dreams which I had completely forgotten about Future Dreams held an event at the Picadilly Theatre in London raising a massive 163400 000 for charity. The money was raised for Breakthrough Breast Cancer the event and the cause phenomenal...more can be seen at httpwww.futuredreams.org.uk The cakes can be seen on the fairy cakes page. 2009-11-25 14:08:12 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#52276 Christmas is just around the corner now and it gets more difficult by the year to be original where gifts are concerned so along those lines.... I have some fantastic ideas for Christmas fairy cakes...think sparkling snowflakes cheeky reindeer festive Christmas trees traditional holly....a lovely personal gift and also great to give to teachers at the end of term. If youre still stuck for ideas them how about muffin and brownie goodie baskets Prices start from as little as 16310 and range through to 16340 for that extra special present. And of course fairy cakes are again becoming ever more popular I have had so many orders recently either for themed cakes to go with a main cake check out the cute cute Hello Kitty ones recently added perfect with a big Hello Kitty cake or cakes that represent interests and hobbies....from football to Tai Chi handbags and lipstick to bunny rabbits and dogs luscious lips to musical notes....possibilities are endless....stunning when presented on a boa... 2009-11-9 18:26:52 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#50440 I had the strangest most bizarre request for a cake this week...I received a text message asking if I could make a vagina cake After picking myself up from the floor I thought well why not Being artistic doesnt need to just extend to chidrens cakes and certainly shouldnt compromise my ability afterall just makes me more versatile Anyway the cake was created had a hugely successful response not just from the recipient but also shown in the 500 hits the site received in just 2 hours So Im thinking that this could be a great extra string to my bow Stag and hen nights intimate parties...you name it. As I have always said Im up for a challenge and will always be accomodating when it comes to your choice of cake. And they neednt be as X rated as the Vagina cake Mini cakes and cupcakes adorned with lacey underwear love hearts bee stung lips and stiletto heals are both tasteful and artistic. I have so many ideas so please please feel free to challenge me 2009-10-12 11:24:16 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#45935 Fairy Cakes are the new in thing But here we dont make the buttercreamed variey...way too passe Instead all the fairy cakes created are iced in gorgeous fondant after first being soaked in sugar syrup and filled with buttercream first to ensure they are moist and delicious every time. Then anything is possible...from simple designs to more intricate flowers from wording to sugarpaste modelled creations such as handbags stilettos sporting equipment. They make a perfect mini blank canvasse for beautiful and unique creative ideas And dont limit yourself to birthdays fairy cakes also make unique gifts for Christenings births new homes a personal get well gesture. Presented cellophane wrapped and boxed or individually ribboned and boxed they really do look gorgeous 2009-7-31 13:15:19 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#45494 Ive been very busy and my gift baskets are now available and on display under my new gifts tab. Ive had a lot of fun experimenting with muffin flavours and perfecting the most indulgent brownies as well as getting stuck into the wrapping and presentation Next project is beautiful gift boxes for fairy cakes so watch this space 2009-7-24 11:43:26 http://www.nataliescreativecakes.com/page19.htm#44907 Hi all Just to let you know that I have now been experimenting with muffins. I have created some fantastic flavours including banana amp chocolate chip snickers and peanut butter and of course more traditional stuff like blueberry and buttermilk. The experimenting will continue and new flavours will be added continually These make fantastic presents when cellophane wrapped in bags together with chocolate brownies and look fab. I just made several batches for end of term gifts for my kids teachers and they seem to have gone down well Please enquire as Im up for a challenge 2009-7-14 12:08:36
