Drage Feuer Stitch

I can really feel that Spring is here as flowers are starting to grow. Birds are chirping, even at 4.30am in the morning! Spring also means work in the garden and I am not really looking foward to all those weeds-plucking.

Edit : I think I must be dreaming while writing my blog yesterday. It was Almond Chocolate Cake that is supposed to be here. I even made a small cake stand to go with it. In fact, I made 6 mini cake stands to go with all the 6 small cakes.

I've always love the Danish Othello Kage. While walking past the bakery last week, I saw one. I came home and decided to make one myself . This one is sewed but I am going to bake the real one soon, just have to exclude the marzipan away as I hate them.

All of a sudden, I just feel like buying a kit to stitch. I am still working on my HAED Angel of Spring but thought of putting it away for a while. I have 2 Eva Rosenstand kits in mind but still deciding which one to buy first. I hope I won't take too long to decide.

Here is another batch of felt cakes I made during the last 2 weeks. I remade a couple of them as I wasn't satisfied with the first results.

First time making a whole felt cake. I have to practise with the icing though.

I just bought this Wilton Wonder Mold. For the past few weeks, DD had been watching on Youtube on some doll cakes making using this mold. I can bake but I am not a professional cake decorator. I know there are a lot of accessories (different type of tips to be used on the dress) involved and they look quite intimidating. DH told me that he will help out with the decorations and told me to go ahead and buy the kit. DH came with an idea to save some work but not money. He suggested buying a barbie doll dress, cut it to the waist length and put it over this doll pick. In this way, we don't have to decorate top body with icing, marzipan, etc. What do you think? We will try making a Barbie doll cake this Sunday together with DD. If you want to look at the most beautiful Barbie doll cakes, go here. That is the site which DD and I frequent a lot and try to look for The Island Princess cake, that one is stunning!
