The Minions Craze Lives On!


About 2 years ago, when these adorable yellow creatures in blue jumpsuits hit the silver screen, kids and kids at heart alike went crazy over them and were hit by the "minions craze".

KC kupcakes' First Ever Set of 3D Minions-themed Handcrafted Fondant Toppers

It was actually an advantage on my end when the minions craze started to spread.

Since then, orders kept pouring as clients request for minions-themed cupcakes, back when I was still happily busy making custom cakes and cupcakes when I was still back home.


And now that a new movie has come out, the minions craze lives on!


And I'm sure that I'd be getting a lot of orders again if I were back home.


Aside from the feeling of accomplishment when I see my creations, I love seeing how my customers appreciate my work. Oh how I really miss baking! I wish I can still continue it here. Knowing that I'm able to bring happiness is the very reason why love and miss what I do back home!

Labor of Love


It's my parents' 31st Wedding Anniversary yesterday and we celebrated it by having a simple dinner at home. I was supposed to make a cake, but because we still have some leftover cake from Father's Day, I just decided to make some brownies for my mom and dad.

I made chocolate fudge brownies with walnuts and cashew nuts and then decided to make it a little more special by adding some dark chocolate and dulce de leche drizzle. :D

Happy Father's Day!

It's Father's Day today! And since I've been making cakes for quite some time now, I'm sure you know what gift I gave for my dad today. Yup, I made a cake for him, a beer cake that is! :D

I made a banana cake because it's my dad's favorite. I made into a mug of beer and made it to look like it's overflowing while beer from the can is being poured haha! :p

Sweets For A Cause

Hello sweeties! I'd like to ask a little help.

My uncle's in a state of coma because of blood clot in his brain and he needs to undergo operation as soon as possible. His family needs a very big amount of money for this.

I'd like to ask if you could help us raise some funds for his operation by purchasing our "Sweets For A Cause".

Basketball-themed Cake

Today's the birthday of my older brother, Chino, so I decided to make a birthday cake for him. I was already thinking of designs for my brother's birthday cake as early as after I made my own birthday cake. Special thanks to my baby brother, Jaoey, for suggesting the designs. He knew how Chino loves cars and basketball so these were the designs that he had in mind.

I was choosing between a sports car cake or a basketball cake, and, because I thought it's kinda hard to sculpt a car out of a cake, I just chose the latter. :p

Hello Kitty Cake

I celebrated my 28th birthday last Friday, January 3. And because birthdays won't be complete without birthday cakes, I made my own birthday cake! Yay! :D

We usually buy cakes from bakeshops during special occasions, but ever since I started making cakes and cupcakes, the cakes that are present on our feasts are of course those which I personally made. Will do a separate post for that. :)

Baby Items-themed Christening Cupcakes

Aside from orders for birthday parties, we also get orders for Christenings. Here's the first set of Christening cupcakes that we made. We thought of baby items as the main topper, then added on some fondant flowers and edible pearls. :)

Here are the other sets that we made for Baby Girl and Baby Boy Christening cupcakes.

Medical Items-themed Cupcakes

Here's our first ever set of cupcakes with handcrafted fondant toppers. :D We got an order for cupcakes that would be given as gifts to a doctor so Gia and I thought of using fondant for the cupcake toppers. We searched over the net and came up with making these medical items out of fondant.

Working with fondant for the first time was both fun and challenging at the same time. It was challenging because Gia and I are both first timers. We were hesitant at first and wondered if we're doing it right, but we were glad that we pulled it off. And it turned out to be a lot more fun! It actually brought us back to our childhood memories when we used to make some stuff out of modeling clay.

KC kupcakes: Not Just Your Ordinary Cupcakes

Now this is the culprit of my absence in the blogosphere for the past weeks! :p


Yup, and for the first time I can say that it's not because I was just too lazy to blog, it's just that I was very busy with making cupcakes. :D
