A little bit of prettiness to get you through your Monday!

I continue to be in awe of the amazing cake creations that appear on the web each week.  The world is truly full of incredibly clever and creative souls and as my pinterest board grows bigger and bigger I though I would share my favourite addition to the collection.

I love the simplicity of this cake with it’s beautiful flower and sitting on that gorgeous jade green milk cake stand makes for a gorgeous colour combination.

This beautiful cake is by Intricate Icings and the photography is by Simply Bloom Photography – so pretty and elegant!

Happy Friday everyone!

 It is cold and windy here in Sydney so I am pleased to be hiding indoors with the fire going.

Thank you to everyone that entered this weeks giveaway.

The great prize includes a pack of horizontal stripe bags, a pack of glassine bags, a roll of twine and a standard stamp – all in your choice of colour.

And the winner is

SARAH ARMSTRONG

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

Black is very on trend at the moment and such a easy colour to work with as it goes back with most colours to create a sophisticated look!  

Black is fabulous for a wedding or a milestone birthday and with the availability of great new black tableware pulling everything together is so much easier.  We have also recently added extra black candy selections to the store that tie in perfectly.

Here are a few of my favourite tables that feature the fabulous black tableware – all of them team black with a slightly different colour to give a striking look.

Jacki’s 40th Birthday Table  combining black and white – Blissfully Sweet Cakes and Sweet Style

You can find the great selection of black tableware, paper goods and candy in the sweet style store here. 

Here is a selection of my picks from the range.

It is always lovely to see my gorgeous products on display in a magazine but when I caught a glimpse of my beautiful cake stands that I loaned to Home Beautiful Magazine for a shoot recently my heart sang.
