I thought it would be fun to give everyone a little look into my world of cupcakes! I recently just finished setting up my studio. I really love my studio, its a lovely space to have my consultations and a lovely space to work in. It has been a labour of love. Many hours have been spent sanding and sanding and more sanding before layers of paint was applied to all my furniture. I couldn't have done it without the help of my hubby and good friend Micheal. Both saved me a lot of {$$} by installing my gorgeous white floors and putting up the wallpaper. { which I must say was a job well done!!! No joins can be seen}. My most favourite things in my studio would have to be my wallpaper and my floor! And all the gorgeous furniture that I found. My queen anne chairs would have to be one of my best buys. They were this horrible brown colour with awful brown fabric. I got them striped back down to the frames. Painted them white and got our lovely friends at Piermark Upholstery to recover them with the gorgeous fabric I find in this little fabric shop in Parnell. I think they turned out so great!!! Love! Love! LOVE! It is so nice to have a space to display all my cake stands, my tea cup collection and all my little nic nacs. There are still a few things I need to do like change the curtains and I want to create a photo wall to display photos of my favourite cupcakes and cakes, but all in good time! So that is the pretty side of my world, now I thought it would be fun to share my space where all the hard work and magic really happens. This is where all the baking, covering and decorating goes on. My kitchen. This is my large commercial kitchen which I get to work in. This is actually our bakery kitchen which my mum and I have been running for about 3 years now. We make really delicious pies and sweet treats. =) And now I get to create all my cakes and cupcakes in it too!! lol. I have a huge commercial oven to bake all my cakes and cupcakes. I can bake up to 9 trays of cupcakes at a time and about 6-9 cakes - depending on size. And lots of room to cool dozens of cupcakes! Well there you go! I hope it's been fun to see a little insight into my world of cupcakes!! I don't get much sleep these days! I am absolutely addicted to my job! Cupcakes and cakes consume my world .... not that I'm complaining I love love love what I do and wouldn't change it for the world!
