Georgia's 5th Birthday

My darling little niece Georgia turned 5 on the weekend. Georgia lives in Ballina NSW so I wasn't there to celebrate with her and make her cake :O(

Georgia's Mummy (my SIL) came and saw me when I was in Sydney last week. We made these little 'funky figures' on my Planet Cake course so this went home with my SIL with strict instructions on how to put the cake together. I think I made my poor SIL sick with nerves with all my 'do's and don'ts'... but I think she did a fabulous job... maybe we have another cake decorator in the family!?

Happy Birthday Georgia... with loads of love from Aunty Kathryn xxxxx

I must admit Stephen and I did have alot of fun in putting the cake together and have a much better idea of what to do next time....what am I saying there will not be a next time ;); August 26, 2008 at 11:48 AM

What on earth did you do to get the kit kat bars to stick?? Did you use buttercream??; October 1, 2008 at 7:01 AM
Vivianne said...: I know this post is a bit old, but I am swiping this lolly cake idea to make cakes for my brother-in-law's and my nephew's birthdays. I am very 'novice' at all this though. Can I just ask, how far in advance can this cake be assembled? Will the chocolate or candy coating on the chocolate bleed if in contact with buttercream for too long?; February 21, 2010 at 12:32 AM
The Cake Maker said...: I've only ever made (put together) this on the same day it was served. The night before would be fine.... just make sure you use a ribbon to hold the kit-kats together as this design does NOT travel well as the weight of the sweets inside will push the kit-kats apart :); February 21, 2010 at 4:30 PM

Welcome to 4GoodnessCake!

My name is Kathryn. I live with my husband and children in the beautiful city of Auckland, New Zealand. To the rest of the world NZ is a long way from anywhere. For a tiny country we have done some big things internationally. We’ve made movies (Lord of the Rings), competed in sport reasonably well and gifted kiwifruit to the masses.

This blog had its beginning because last year a very close friend of mine was diagnosed with HER2 Positive breast cancer. It was such devastating news for her family and for me. To make matters worse the drug to treat this type of cancer is only partially funded by the NZ Government. My friend had to find $93,000.00 (NZD) to pay for a 12 month course of the treatment.

To help raise funds I offered to bake cakes. The blog was a perfect way to get the message out. Within a short space of time I was inundated orders and had to turn people away. The good news was that the money needed was raised within four months through a combination of fundraising initiatives http://www.supportmaara.blogspot.com/

Although the fundraising is all done I continued the blog for my own personal interest and to keep in touch with other cake makers. Not only is it a joy making these cakes but there’s another passion in me that loves transforming them into memorable images. I hope you enjoy what I have posted so far.

For me cake making is my passion and not my profession. I am a self-taught amateur who has no plans (at the moment) to progress beyond that classification. There’s a real irony at play here because if you asked me to draw you a picture, expect to see an unrecognisable stick figure depicting something slightly more sophisticated than an ink blot. However, through some mysterious work of nature, sugar and I have connected.

Thanks for taking the time to visit.
