Short Cake Videos :)

Hello! I had a few days off last week, and managed to upload several cake videos onto my YouTube Channel.

Procrasination is my good friend lol. Always clingy.

Btw, have you guys noticed all these social medias are changing their layouts.. I need to find and familiarize myself with some of them again. -.-



Lilo and Stitch Cake! Stitch with his spaceship. I love how this cake turned out!!




Despicable Me CAKE!!!

(Edit: DAY 3 )Tuna Challenge! (Food Art!!)



Hello! So I bought a huge ass can of tuna (from Costco of course lol), it’s a better deal than to buy the small cans.. but when I got home, I realized if I ever open the can of tuna, it’s gonna be a whole week of eating tuna for breakfast, lunch and dinner! So I’ve been dreading to open it. 



Well, I finally opened it yesterday… finished up most of the foods in the fridge, so we can eat nothing but tuna all week lol. 

Day 1: Tuna Melt Sandwiches


Day 2: Tuna Casserole with cheese and veggies!


 

 So, after 6 tuna melt sandwiches and a pot of tuna casserole, I still have 90% of the tuna can left! 
Hahaha.. noooo! I need to use it up… any tuna recipes? Send them my way! 😀

(Uh oh.. I went from cucumber hearts.. to a house the next day, plus I took a pic with my SLR camera,
that means I’m serious lol.. I think I found a new hobby… FOOD ART!!!)

Day 3: Avocado Tuna Salad!

Doing food art is so much faster than caking! Took me less than 5 minutes to make the bear.
 The bear’s saying “LOVE” to you by the way!!

  

How To Make Fondant Sushi CAKE!

Hey everyone!

This is my time lapse cake video!! I’m making fondant sushi cake!

I remember the first time I made a fondant sushi cake was 3 years ago for my mom’s birthday. I was looking online for any fondant sushi cake tutorials or cake videos and I couldn’t find any, so over time I just developed my own way of making it.  This is probably my 7th or 8th fondant sushi cake so I thought I’d record it for anyone else wondering how it’s made. 

I hope it helps! or feel free to email me at [email protected] if you need any help, I know how it feels googling for how to cake tutorials! It can be a pain 🙂

Oh, and today’s my birthday 🙂 Happy Birthday to MEEEE!

Mod Monkey Baby Shower Cake!

I’m loving my new job as a Flight Attendant! I have days off to do other things, so much freedom!
I started making cakes again, and I thought it’d be a good time now to edit this video.  I recorded myself making this cake almost a year ago (Yes, I’m a huge procrastinator when I don’t give myself a deadline!), but here it is 🙂 Finally posted up!  It’s my first time making a time lapse video for a two tiered cake. It slows down the process of making the cake a lot, but I hope I make more videos like this in the future.

Hope you guys like the video!
Love you all, Joey

My Other Job! (With Cake Pix Of Course!)

Hello! It’s been a while!

I haven’t been updating as often last year cause my old job was really demanding… I didn’t have free time to do other stuff or make cakes, I realized I missed out on many things and I missed making cakes, so I started to think about what I can do all over again…. I either get started now or never.

I wanted a full time job, but I didn’t have to work so many hours . I need more time for cakes!
 I know what you’re thinking, but trust me, a job like this exists lol.

It was around August, I started getting the idea of being a Flight Attendant full time (only work 70-80 hours a month), perfect! If I can fit in a part time supply teaching job for the school board (only two days a week), that would be awesome!  Weekends I can make cakes….

I’d have to see if both jobs are hiring, and apply, and somehow convince them to hire me. It was a long shot.

So, just my luck, in August AC was hiring, I applied and didn’t get a call back but I didn’t give up, I applied again in September and they called me back!.. I was also lucky to catch the York Region School Board website on a day they posted hiring ads for supply work, normally they’ll post it up and within a week they’ll have enough submissions and they’ll take it down.  I got called in for in person interviews for both places,  after many interviews, a medical test, exams, and training.. 5 months later, I got both jobs!

I passed the AC training and started flying first week of February.
I’ll be on the supply list second week of March.

Every thing is coming together! I am so incredibly happy!
 It’s kind of crazy how I’m a Flight Attendant now,
 I always knew I wanted to teach, but flying never crossed my mind…
I’ve flew a few times already, and I love it!

Anyways, here are some pictures from my FA graduation.

I didn’t take any cake orders for 2 months so I could focus on training,
I really missed caking so for our graduation, I made our phase a cake!

 

This cake was what we saw for the entire month of training, a messy desk.



A close up of the sticky notes, says Thank You to our wonderful instructors!

  

The cake compared to the real manuals.



Me with my cake at grad.



That’s my instructor, his girlfriend made the airplane cake!



Our grad night celebration.



I wasn’t ready, but the girls look gorgeous here!




 
I met T at my very first interview! I then saw her at the group interview,
medical test, etc, and we ended up in the same class… we’ll be flying together
to Tampa end of March! From day 1 to flying together .


So that’s what I’ve been up to. I have so much free time now, excited to start blogging and caking again!

More Cake Updates, Thanks to Iphone Apps!

I finally switched over to iphone from blackberry! There’s definitely some things that I liked about
the blackberry that the iphone didn’t have, but the camera on the iphone made me switch over!

I can finally post my cake pictures RIGHT AWAY, not a few days or weeks after lol.
I’ve been using Instagram and Snapeee and PicCollage to post my cake pictures 🙂
I’m trying to hold back on the cute deocrations from Snapeee… it’s making my
cake pictures too busy looking, but I’m addicted to the app! 

Here are some of my recent Instagrams and Snapees 🙂

friends and they loved it! Yay!

Fondant Decorating: Thomas The Train birthday cake video!

 

 
Hey everyone! Here’s a Thomas the Train Engine birthday cake I made for a little boy name Zahran who
just turned 2 over the weekend! Terrible Twos maybe.. but I think Two is the best age, the cutest!
 
His mammy said he’s a huge Thomas and friends fan of the tv show, so she requested a Thomas the Train
birthday cake for the little boy.  Last year, I made them the Winnie The Pooh cake with a bee hive 
(the mammy allowed me to design however I wanted to), so this year, I wanted to recreate something
that’s one of a kind.  She wanted a 3D sculpted cake of Thomas the Train, but that’s been done before,
so I added a mountain at the back, and it gave the cake more character, Thomas the Train looks more a live 🙂
 
I love it when they give me the free reign in designing, I enjoy doing it more, and there’s no
limit to creativity 🙂

Fondant Decorating: Angry Birds CAKE!

ANGRY BIRDS CAKE!

Here’s a quick video of a small Angry Birds cake I made for a friend’s son’s birthday.
I have to say, I was a huge Angry Bird addict on the iphone and ipad at one point myself lol, but I was never good at that game :D.
Anyways, I am finally gaining more free time so I will be updating more often, blog soon 🙂
