Oh baby!

I've had quite a few babyshower and christening enquiries lately. Baby cakes are one my favourite things to decorate. You can have a lot of fun with themes, designs and color schemes. From pastel to bright, it all seems right! 

The cookies can be a nice gift for guests to take home and cupcakes are always a winner for tea parties.

Here are a few of my favourites.

Color of the year

I'm happy to share with you that Turquoise is Pantone's color of the year.
Not only is Turquoise one of my favourite colors, but its also the color of Nelle cakes. 

Pantone TurquoiseAs Pantone explains: Turquoise is a universally flattering color that appeals to both men and women. It's inspired by sky & water. It reminds people of a tropical paradise and represents a comforting escape .With both warm and cool undertones, it pairs well with any other color.

Turquoise adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, complements reds and pinks, creates a classic maritime look with deep blues, livens up all other greens, and is especially trend-setting with yellow-greens.

Here are some sweet things with different Turquoise undertones and color combinations. (I think it's quite obvious that I looove Turquoise)
