cake story

on the 10th december, hubs celebrated his 33rd birthday. i was thinking of something to make it different & that thought came with a cake. i gave him a cake shaped in a soccer ball last year & he was happily surprised. i still remember him saying that he has never gotten a cake like that in his life. i know for a fact that hubs other passion in life, besides us 3 i.e., is his football club which is none other than LIVERPOOL. he's definitely a loyal fan of the football club for the last 22 years & yes, forevermore. for those who are big supporters/die hard fans of their football clubs will know what i mean :o)
hubs' cake in 2006

the cake interest began when neneth posted 2 entries on her blog with her kids' birthday cakes - hakim & aishah. their cakes were vibrant & beautiful. i've tried a few places in the past & haven't been too keen with the outcome. so if you know any impressive cake makers in kota kinabalu, please let me know.

my search for a good liverpool fc logo began a month prior to hubs birthday & found just the site for it. i downloaded a wallpaper which had a nice clean logo on it, took my time in keying out the background. with only the logo to edit, i started taking bits out so that it'd be easier to design on the cake with full-on icing (simply delightful!). i planned for it to be rectangular in shape with the wordings happy birthday daddy at the bottom of the very important logo. the best part was that i never had to print nor bring my design to the shop. all i'd to do was email it to suzrina@aol.com & waited for 10th december to collect it from bits & bites at wisma merdeka.


the edited, simpler version

the REAL thing looking so awesome
thanks to bits & bites

hubs more than like it! he was grinning from ear to ear. to hubs, you'll never walk alone, not with your favourite trios around!
