This is what happens when you put the candles too close to the side of the cake.

It catches on FIRE and you are completely amused by it.

 The feature was the Dessert Buffet that followed which consisted of:

Chocolate Mousse, Tiramisu, Chocolate & Vanilla Cupcakes,

Eiffel Tower Sugar Cookies, Tim Tam Cake Pops, Macarons,

 Mini White Chocolate & Berry Cheesecakes, Chocolate Éclairs,

 Melting Moments & Viennese Fingers with some Lolly Filled Jars.

 

 

The Cupcake Topper Flowers and Cupcakes where all edible and handmade by

myself (Leonie) and my mother (Kathy).

 

 

These Tim Tam Cake Pops where delicious.

All the guest at the party received an Eiffel Tower Sugar Cookie to take home.

I have Warren & Kathy (my Mum & Dad) to thank for the countless hours

 in helping me make over 140 of these.

 

A little touch of Paris - Diamond Rings, Roses and Eu De Perfume.

 

I used these Victorian Look Picture Frames as Platters for the

Desserts on the Buffet table they are just beautiful.

 

This is the 3 Tier Chocolate Mud Cake I made with 2 large Peonies. 

The Peonies are made out of Icing.
