Katie's Royal 40th Birthday Brunch

I had the pleasure recently of helping to plan, decorate and make the large cakes

 for my sister inlaw Katie's 40th Birthday Party. 

She celebrated her Birthday on the Queens Birthday with a brunch for 50

of her close friends and family.  I had so much fun with the color scheme she chose. 

She decided to stick to the theme of the day with these lovely Royal colours of purple and red

and the beautiful crowns that featured throughout. 

 

I made the Cake which is a rich Chocolate Mud Cake with Chocolate Ganache. 

The large cake consists of a 9" and 7" tier.  The smaller cakes are dummy cakes 6" inches size. 

I hand made all of the Pillow Boxes using Stampin Up's Die

and also the Scollop Punch for the lovely little Thank You tags. 

Inside each of the Pillow Boxes was a beautiful Crown Bookmark for each of the woman that attended. 

Then in addition each guest also received a Noodle Box with all of Katie's

favourite chocolates with beautiful Red and Purple wrappers.

My brother Jefferson made all of the lovely chocolate cupcakes and brunch foods....Yum! 

I also made the Cake Picks to match those of the take home gifts.

Fresh flower arrangements on top of the cakes were made by "Flowers from the Garden - Dickson".

The crowns are from "The Little Big Company" in Melbourne.   http://www.tlbc.com.au/
