Painting lilac on a cake

My cake painting adventure continues. This time i tried painting lilac on it but at the same time I have incorporated some fondant decorations to make it look textured rather than just flat. Anyway I did this on a 10" sugee cake. Some one had asked me if she can learn this cake painting.....at the moment I'm still experimenting to see how far it goes but in order for you to start painting the brushstroke method on the cake you have to know the basics of folk art painting on wood..There is no pattern transfer...it is all free style when you do on the cake...so you have to know your strokes well and know how to handle the food paint.

My latest cake painting adventure

This is another cake painting experiments that I did recently. I have been doing a lot of roses on the cakes but this time I would like to try on different flowers i.e whether the food colouring is able to handle different types of brush strokes. I have done Hydrangeas before but it does not turn out so well. The sponge cake looks cute actually.

Signage for a restaurant

An owner of a restaurant had asked me to paint this signage. It looks simple but it proves to be quite a tasked to paint a small "kendi Air" and Batu Lesong". Even worst trying to paint "Gulai pucuk tempoyak" and "Sambal petai goreng", etc. It's just not my cup of tea...especially after painting the bakery stuff...hahaha!!!

Chalk board with bakery stuff

A customer had asked me to paint a chalk board with bakery stuff theme. I always love painting bakery still life because I also love to bake. Some how, it will always make me feel hungry while I'm painting it .The next thing I know I will be looking for a bread or cake to eat....hmmm..not good for diet.
