mommies..

r u celebrating bb's birthday on the day itself or on weekends?

AND... would u choose over a delicious cake(cheaper) or of a impressive design cake(more expensive)??

HELP!!! :p
 
NINI
i would choose a delicious cake... for bernice's 1st mth we paid alot for her cake from cheryl shuen which turns out only to be pretty to look at .. very disappointed. till now i still sore..
 
nini,
i'm celebrating on the weekend before. i don't need a super impressive design cake but not the normal one though yu ze won't know how to appreciate cakes now. i still want to get a cake that is more baby like.

krex78,
there is no template to it. do you have photoshop? if have, i can show you how to do it step by step.

dongle,
i know for 1st birthday, they are still too young to remember anything. i feel should do cos its first birthday and also at least got some photos to show them when they are older. any other birthdays from 2nd year is not as significant as first. that's how i feel.

huichin,
i have not started on anything yet. only confirm my friend to be the photograhper for the day.
 
catherine

playyard i got from the chinatown shop also

but i also have another playyard from motherworks...

ur welcome to pop over for a look
 
cakes

www.7thmanna.com

is pretty good ..i ordered my wedding cake from there and everyone of my guest was raving about it

www.cakeavenue.com

i ordered for first month...the chocolate cake and icing fondant is very nice...for a fondant cake i consider it top grade

first birthday cake
i guess i will order from a normal shop so it doesnt cost too much

crazy how cakes can cost $60-$100+ madness
 
<font color="#CD3278">snow</font>
Maybe by 8 Aug Zynn wld enjoy the activities within the playscape.. Or maybe Ashley is just a scaddy cat

<font color="#CD3278">timmin</font>
Think it was quite gd.. I really felt quite gd to return to work, maybe I need to have real adult conversations &amp; challenges of a different kind.. hahah

Where did u find playgrps tt take up half a day? I only know of those 3 hour ones.. Let me know k? In case my intended childcare svc provider doesn't hv vacancies, I can place her in those half-day playgrps to give my parents a little more break

<font color="#CD3278">dongle</font>
Wld love to do what you had plan.. But Ashley's IL's 1st grandkid &amp; i think my parents are also having some sort of expectations though

Then again, it's like the 1st bday for her also? Dunno lah.. Aiyah

<font color="#CD3278">ms apple</font>
What sorts of restrictions are u referring to?

<font color="#CD3278">bb emma</font>
Which flavour fr 7th manna did you get? Many of them sound so yummy.. I wanted to get them to bake cakes as favours for my colleagues
 
cat &amp; celynlee: ok.. thanks for the replies.
happy.gif
To get a yummy cake is no problem (im a foodie!) but im looking at this cakes from aimummy (ai-mummy blog) her cakes r so cute! It's going to be like $150 n above for an 8 inch cake (serves about 24 pax)

to splurge or not to splurge.... ahh.. But like u mommies say, ppl will appreciate nice cakes more?
 
hisstory
great tat u had a good 1st term return to work!

it's a child care that provides half day care. it includes bfast, mandarin class, play time etc. operates from 7am-1pm. i'm sure ur child care provider also has half day?
 
huichin,
haha... yup...
happy.gif



nini,
m celebrating over d wkend coz my gal's bdae is on a wkday. 4 me, i wl choose a delicious cake.
happy.gif
 
Hi Catherine,

I am pretty surprise that the cake from cherlyshuen did not turn out well for you. I was in the midst of confirming my order with her for my son 1st birthday cake. As you said, it cost a bomb..if it does not taste good but only look good then i really need to reconsider other options. May i know what flavour did you choose for her cake ? I am going for the orange cranberrry.
 
morning mummies

krex78,
i'm don't have photoshop elements so don't know how to use that.

nini,
the cake that i'm ordering for yu ze is also super ex loh. a 6 inch cake cost $65 (estimate) also depends on my theme.

first time bernice slept till 9am.. wah.. luxury

krex
no i am ordering from the patissier. my friend is custom making a cake for me. well.. i expect it to come with a hefty price tag too.

jojobar
yes the cake was overly sweet and quite hard. becos of the fondant she had to use a pound cake inside. mine was blueberry. You can see the pic on my facebook. everyone was so anticipating the cake but was so disappointed with it. I dont mind to pay but with the price i have expectations lo.

nini
i think good cake will be well appreciated. i will spend for good quality cake becos i am a cake lover. i

Hi Catherine,

Hey i appreciate your feedback ! I dont think you create more problem for me.... As you said the cake is not cheap ! Especially i am ordering a 4 to 5 kg cake....

YOu are going to The Patissier ? I went to the website before, but none of the cake design caught my eyes... headache loh...

I use cupcake divinity for my son 1st month, so wanted a change for 1st birthday...

You have any other cake contacts to share ?
 
hi jojobar,
the patissier is customizing a cake for me with my sesames st theme. The boss is my friend. But I never ask her how much it will cost :p heard many raving comments on pine garden but i have not tried. usu my cakes all from the patissier that time ordered from cheryl shuen is becos the patissier orders all full le

Oh childcare yah? Tt was what i was thinking... I do believe tt child care i'm eyeing wld have half-day, but since it's a distance fr my parents i need to consider if tt place wld be suitable for half day. If not i wld find another nearer my parents, or stick to mine &amp; take full day..

Which one are u looking at?

<font color="#CD3278">snow</font>
Oh man, 6 weeks only!! I better get my butt moving
