Important Customer Notice

To Make an Order please email your full details according to "how to make an order" sample below, and send it to citscakes@live.com. Please email us in advance for decorated orders as it takes awhile to get to each email from various customers, and answer questions,discuss designs etc. plus i need advance notice to work out your order into my schedule and work around other orders as well. bear in mind i work alone so orders per day are limited.

we will try to respond to your email asap but do expect atleast 3-4days at times depending on how much emails we get at times. your emails will be responded back by my assistant momo. but i try to find time after im done doing orders to check on emails too.
As im usualy working doing decorations, baking etc, i sometimes miss calls, and i get so many txts coming in its hard to keep track of them which is why i recommend emailing me as its easier to organize and search and i have a record of your email orders.

or better yet if you find both emailing or Through phone hard, you can drop by my house to place an order (quite a number of customers have done this and its my most preferred method easier to discuss n confirm everything in one time) just set up an appointment with me.

as for basic cupcakes/cakes or other desserts i sell that requires no fancy decorating. (wordings are excluded as fancy) atleast a minimum of few hours or a day in advance notice is required, in this case msging or calling will be entertained.

Thanks for your support and understanding. i really whole heartedly appreciate it.

:D

PLEASE READ THROUGH~

To my lovely customers/readers/followers etc,


hehe...thot it'll be more personal to address everyone like this..anyhoos js wana explain the whole email, prices n what nots. I noe it'll wuld probably seem convenient if i was to put the prices on the pictures i post..but there is a reason behind why i don't from past happenings and to avoid confusion, cz in the end i wuld still hv to requote u a price anywy so same thing...as each order is different. each customer is different..and as some flavours have different prices it wuld also depend on wat flavours u want for ur order. Which is my prices all depends on flavor u want, and specific design u want. So think of it this way..the more 3D work, more intricate design wuld cost more. the more time consuming it is to produce the pricier it would be etc.

and yes i know im abit slow with emails..again bear in mind i do all the decorations etc..hence im not able to be infront of the computer goin thru mail everyday...so yea..hehe..bear with me on this one. but i do now have an assistant helping me out with emails. (you can address her as momo ..hehehe) so u will be going thru her for orders etc..but i will also still be checking thru my mail from time to time when im done from doing orders n hv the time to read thru. and also this is one of the reasons why i require a minmum of a week advance order or email enquiry so we are able to get to ur mail in time..but due to the demand..and the amount of emails i get per day..starting today for any decorated orders i require a minimum of 2 weeks advance order/enquiry.

and also i NO LONGER take orders thru txts or fone. again due to unforeseen circumstances... der was confusion, misscommunication with orders etc. so now i only take orders thru email..or as alot hv done lately..and i tink is becoming a trend now..haha..dey come by my house to place orders. so yea can txt me to make appointment. and also..i mostly work thru the night all day..so i usualy only get to sleep by 7-8am..so im so sory but please don't call me in the mornings cause for sure i won't be able to take the call anyway..and when i wake up in the afternoons im usualy bck to doin orders again so smtimes i dun get to take calls or im out and i avoid taking calls takut ter ambil order without checking schedule or writing it down..and by the way i am very forgetful!! so again to avoid any mistakes on my part..hehe..explains why its hard to get thru to me thru fone.

and also i noe its been awhile since i've updated..having too much on my hands lately..with orders and emails..but i will update soon..so many photos to upload. and so many cakes and cupcakes ive missed taking pictures of...sigh~ anyhoos...will update in abit..js gota get bck to doing more decorating den will post some more.. so keep checking back for updates..insyallah dey'll be updates by tomorrow. ;)

thanks again evryone!

More Hantaran/engagement themed cupcakes~



Pink white & gold themed 2-tiered Wedding cake~





This was ordered buy a customer for someone..wasn't sure who..could be her sister or a relative..but thought it was a very sweet gesture. anyhoos..she wanted nuthing too extravagant..something along the lines of my pink & gold themed cupcakes i did before..but instead of cupcakes she wanted a cake. so i designed this for her. bottom tier was chocolate ganache cake, and top tier was vanilla cake with mango cream cheese with fresh mango bits. Back to the design..had a thing about frills lately..so i thot it wuld look so pretty on a cake..hence the bottom tier having frills. and put sm gold flowers in between scatterred around. and also my signature flower bloom..with the tiny roses as its centre as i used in the cupcake version.. overall i thot it looked pretty..very couture-ish. so yea~ hope she was happy with them and i hope the bride liked it too. =D

Elmo- themed Cupcakes~



Cupcakes in Cits Cakes box~





Cits Cakes box...finally arrived buuuuttt...it wasn't exactly wat i wanted... 1) colors were wrong 2) the window is too small, i wanted it bigger and for it to be wavy 2) font was not clear other than that its fine..size was right, insert was correct except it was a bit too high..i actualy wanted it shorter. but as long as the cupcakes can fit and sit nicely in the insert dats good enough..if not then ill be very worried and not happy.....but atleast it looks better than them plain white ones. hehe..so im happy~ but excited for the new improved boxes..but gota use up these ones first. so yea~ hehe.. so for those ordering look forward to getting ur cupcakes in these boxes. :D

Apple mac laptop and iphone Cake~






This was a big challenge..mainly cause of our weather..humidity is just not suitable to do these bigger scale sugar decoratons which is rather frustrating. no matter how long i leave it out to dry it just won't harden enough..and it js seeps in moisture from anything including the "glue" (royal icing) i used to put the screen with the keyboard together..at the end i had to put sticks behind the screen to support the back.. and i was worried about the trip in d car. overall it was such a time consuming order..cutting out the keyboard..each button..i got quite kusut halfway and at one point had to redo evrything cause i measured wrong n didnt cut out enough buttons on the 2nd last row..yikes!~ ..the iphone on the other hand was fun to do..though again plays with ur patience..d different colors, making sure it was the right size so i culd fit four icons across and 5 to the bottom. but it was worth the effort. it was a fairly large and quite heavy cake..lastly i topped it off with a happy birthday ribbon to go around the base, and an apple mac logo it looked great but i wished i didnt have to put em sticks n that the screen was hard and firm enough to support itself. sigh~ gona need to get my hands on those gum tragacanth soon. . anyways enjoy the photos! :)
