25.01.2022 Chrissy Jones asked me to provide 5 photos that represent My Day for this issue of Manning Focus Mag! You’ve kept me busy, so besides going out for sustenance at The Good Food Store or Kembali Cafe, I’ve been in my kitchen a lot creating, baking & decorating! With a 5.15am start, today pretty much ran like this but with 4 different types of cakes heading out to be enjoyed! I’m getting out of my kitchen from the 5th-9th October and orders are now closed from 1st-12th October.... #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #livelocal #visitingparadise #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #shopmidcoast #30yearsinthetrade #pastrychef #dessertchef #cakeartist #edibleart #glutenfree #dairyfree #sugarfree #vegan #delicious #dessert #cakes #trysomethingnew #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #behindthescenes https://focusmagonline.com.au/m14

24.01.2022 It’s interesting how we connect with each other. I’ve had some lovely & insightful conversations with Stan about our soul-led businesses whilst we organised cupcakes & a cake for his daughter’s birthday. We discovered that Zia & my father share the same birthday but 81 years apart. As I was unable to treat Dad it was lovely creating for Zia! Chocolate Cupcakes with Ganache & handmade Artist Palettes & Brushes were shared with her friends at school. ... Double Chocolate Fudge Cake with a pink & purple theme & edible flowers to enjoy with her family. Hi Nadine, Your cupcakes so cute & everyone loved them, they were so yum , I have given your business card to school Office & highly recommended your products & services, Happy Birthday in advance for your Dad! Really appreciate your hard work. Every part of the cake was so beautifully detailed. We could taste the love. Regards, Stan Yesterday I had other conversations about how I run my business, which is intriguing because I have just joined Gumboots By The Sea Soul Biz group. You are very welcome to contact Kate Darnell & join if you live with heart, are looking for different ways to run your business & like to connect with other people on the same wavelength. #MyBakingBlog #gbtssoulbiz https://www.facebook.com/1249923675102545/posts/3328872350540990/?extid=0&d=n #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #soulledbusiness #livewithheart #sharingiscaring #bepartofsomethingbiggerthanyourself #35yearsexperience #cakeartist #pastrychef #dessertchef #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #ilovemyjob

21.01.2022 Lemon Raspberry Coconut Cake with Lemon Curd, WCIMBC, toasted coconut, freeze dried raspberry, fresh berries, edible flowers & silver sparkle for Dave’s 60th Birthday!

21.01.2022 There are always options with decorating cakes! I can do everything for you or I finish the cake to your specifications & you can decorate it with your special touch. Zac & Tamara took the short notice Option A! Vanilla Butter Cake with WCIMBC covered with fondant as a rabbit relaxing in the garden. They loved it so much that they booked in their son’s cake in for November the next day! #greatidea Lauren was more organised as a returning customer & went with Option B..., asking me to make a Chocolate Sponge with WCIMBC in Nerf colours that she would then decorate for Jack’s birthday. Such a great idea if you’re on a budget & like the fun of making the cake your own! #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #35yearsexperience #cakeartist Chromacake Food Colourants #noaddednasties #kidsbirthdaycake #fondantcake #handmade #madewithlove #ilovemyjob #MyBakingBlog

19.01.2022 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I’ve been playing Blankety Blanks with #weddingcakes. Baking & assembling #delicious #dessert #cakes for florists & friends to decorate for gorgeous brides & grooms. It is the floral design that makes a cake stunning but it is always wonderful to hear Oh, it’s so beautiful when handing over a blank cake that is Wedding Cake Perfect. ... There is nowhere to hide with a blank cake so the need for crisp, straight edges & a flawless finish is absolutely necessary & a whole lot of trusting in myself!

18.01.2022 Sponge layered with Mascarpone is always a winner whether it’s a tantalising Tiramisu or a sensational Summer Fruit extravaganza! The beauty with both these cakes is that they require freezing to set them which means they travel well & you can choose to serve them as semifreddo for a half frozen icrecream-like texture or allow them to defrost in the fridge for pure creaminess. This style cake is also easily made in a bowl as a trifle to scoop & serve! #MyBakingB...log #tipsandtricks Lenore very kindly text me, It was the best cake ever. It all got eaten. regarding her Summer Fruit Mascarpone Cake! Debra’s testimonial is in the pictures. I loved that she took note of my tips & could enjoy the Tiramisu experience over 2 days even after travelling to the destination! #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #delicious #dessert #birthdaycakes #tiramisu #summerfruit #mascarponecake #30yearsinthetrade #pastrychef #dessertchef #cakeartist #edibleart #travellingcake #livelocal #visitingparadise #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #trust #loyalty #gratitude #gbtssoulbiz #loveyourwork

17.01.2022 Hello! How are you? To make it through the amount of cakes that I’ve been creating, baking & decorating I needed to unplug from everything else for my own sanity! Now I’m back with pretty pictures & stories to share with you!! I received these gorgeous photos by Shane Chalker Photography from Jess & Charles’s wedding on 15/11/20 yesterday & thought they would be a wonderful way to start us off as it was the final cake I made before going into my lockdown!! Covid threw e...verything at these two but they came through with flying colours & an amazing day for their beach wedding! Their cake was three tiers of White Chocolate Raspberry Cake with WCIMBC then decorated in a Beach Theme with handmade seashells & seahorses. They were very excited to tell me how much they loved it & it was all eaten!! #gratitude December is filling up fast (this week is fully booked) so if you are thinking of ordering, please visit my Virtual Assistant at https://thecakequeen.com.au to let your imagination run wild then email me at [email protected] with your order. Need help? These are the questions I will ask you to help me quote you. 1. Day, date & time of pick up for your order. 2. How many people is the cake to serve. 3. Which cake flavour & icing would you like? 4. Would you like an inscription on the cake or the board & what would you like it to say? 5. How much are you looking to spend? This is so I have an idea of simple to elaborate we are going with decorating it. 6. Are there any special dietary requirements I need to cater for? 7. Is there anything you would like to tell me about the cake? You are welcome to send any images of designs you like. 8. FYI: Sponge is the lightest type of cake then there is a variety of different textures & density through to Mud Cake as being the heaviest type of cake. Where does your preference lie? #itsallinthedetails #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #lookingafteryou #smithslakecakes #livelocal #visitingparadise #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #delicious #dessert #weddingcake #pacificpalmsweddings Easy Weddings MNC Weddings #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #makingmemories for all the right reasons!

16.01.2022 Thank you to everyone that has messaged me & ordered a special occasion cake after enjoying the deliciousness at Country Palings Petals & Pots Cafe & Gifts Green Point!

16.01.2022 I love sharing professional photos from weddings but I don't always receive them, so In the Love Month that is February, I'll give you a #behindthescenes look through my lens once I've delivered. Since I've set this intention the professional photos may mystically arrive... Most wedding cakes in our area are Simply Elegant, buttercream finished with fresh flowers but occasionally a couple request something Extraordinarily Extravagant! I delivered a stunning one today to Pa...cific Palms Surf Life Saving Club but will patiently await for professional photos. This beauty is from Rob & Jenna's Wedding at Tiona Weddings & Events from 6/10/2019 with Pacific Palms Weddings. The styling of the room was truly incredible to behold. It was a Valentine's Day #dreamwedding with ravishing red roses, folds and folds of luxuriously draped white fabric and extravagant table settings. I was concerned that the cake and cupcakes would be too over the top but they perfectly enhanced the decadent theme. The Delectable Dessert Wedding Cake and Cupcakes were White Chocolate Raspberry Cake and Double Chocolate Fudge Cake with a #glutenfree cupcake option as well with deep red handmade roses on the cake and #russianpipingtip WCIMBC roses on the cupcakes. Welcome to the 2022 #weddingseason and the joy it has to offer. #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #delectabledessert #weddingcake #weddingcupcakes #edibleart #cakeartist #spoilyourself #spoilyourfriendsandfamily #extraordinarilyextravagant #livelocal or #visitingparadise #SupportSmallBusiness #barringtoncoastweddings #biggerbackyardmidcoast #customcakescreatedwithclass

15.01.2022 After creating, baking & decorating 700 dessert items over 2 very long days (& nights) the lovely Fran Gatenby & I set up the Edible Art Dessert Bar at the Pacific Palms Art Festival Opening Night (with extra assistance from Mel Ovenden from Green Room Botanicals who created the floral sculpture at the front entrance) for attendees to enjoy! What a fabulous evening it was! Thank you to everyone that supports this fundraiser & for all your scrumptious comments & prizes! ...My participating in this evening came about because I couldn’t enter #edibleart in the festival. Cath Bennett & I decided to include my Edible Art as part of the Light Supper (thank you to Ceiron from Kembali Cafe this year & Blueys Cellars and Deli with Brokenwood Wines) for a different perspective, as art comes in many forms. I create art for you to see, savour, feel & (hopefully) have everlasting memories of for years to come. The enjoyment, the surprise on your faces as your bit into the tasty treats, the oohs & aahs & comments last night about having a full body experience whilst savouring the moment made my heart sing! Thank you for introducing yourselves, your referrals & all the love!!! #gratitude If you missed out last night or loved them so much you would like more, there are extra desserts at the Art Festival for you to buy & enjoy today! Please ask at the front desk for NTCQ’s Edible Art! A MASSIVE THANK YOU TO FRAN for assisting me #createbakedecorate for this fundraiser!! Fran volunteered 20 hours of her precious time along with my 40 hours of driving, shopping, creating, baking & decorating, packing, setting up, serving, packing down, cleaning & packing! Events never happen without my help from my amazing husband & logistics manager, Chris Cavenagh who does everything he asked to do & more!!

Welcome to Winter, where I get to share it with you! #ilovemyjob It’s always an honour to #createbakedecorate for Edward’s birthday! From a Pirate’s Treasure & a Fire Truck to this year’s Police Car.

11.01.2022 When it’s been a rough year, an Extraordinarily Extravagant Cake at a celebration makes for a mouthwatering moment of pure joy.

Jo answered all the questions in her email Enquiry form, which made it super easy to work out all the details & quote her as my final booking for last week.

01.01.2022 It’s always lovely to #createbakedecorate for someone that has created for me! Becky asked me to create a cake for her mum’s birthday featuring roses & pretty colours. As I was in the decorating zone, I realised I was channeling the feeling from this gorgeous painting by her mum that I had won at a fundraiser a few years ago that Becky & her Mum had organised. I added in a version of the heart as recognition of my love of this painting! ... OMG that is just so amazing. I have just been wandering around the garden with Mum here in Comboyne and it looks a little like that. You are amazing. Can’t wait to see it in the flesh. Love the background . Thank you so much for being a part of my Mums special celebrations Xxoo Everyone enjoyed the Lemon Butter Cake layered with Lemon Curd & WCIMBC over the hot weekend! #nadinethecakequeen #cakepsychic #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #ilovemyjob #itsallaboutyou #itsallaboutthecake #livelocal #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #buttercreamflowercake #rosecake #delicious #dessert #birthdaycake

28.12.2021 There’s a story behind every wedding & I love it when the bridal couple shares theirs with me. This gorgeous couple are very generously sharing it with you too. After 35 years together, Will thought he was on a sure thing & asked Beverley to marry him. Beverley & Will had quite the adventure! Starting & ending locally with a train trip to Sydney in between. Their wedding cake had quite the adventure with them! I’ve learned along the way that the best laid plans can go hay...wire & that being flexible in mind is key to enjoying oneself! I think Will & Beverley would agree. Hello Nadine One week on, I will share with you the story of our wedding. It was not the wedding we had planned, as during the journey down on the Monday we learned that one family member had tested positive for covid (and over the next 2 days three more succumbed). So we would not be seeing them or having the wedding at their home as planned. Our celebrant was marvellous and agreed to marry us at The Grace Hotel where we stayed. Her husband and his daughter came along as witnesses and photographers. The hotel was great and gave us a space. So we had a lovely little ceremony with the family on a zoom connection so we could see and talk to one another. We had a nice lunch afterwards. Then returned home the following morning New Years Eve, and had a morning tea with 12 of our friends on New Years Day where we cut and shared our well travelled wedding cake. The fruit cake was absolutely delicious. Everyone loved it! #thankyou At any event, it’s best to be present & enjoy the company & the cake! You’ll have a fabulous time no matter what then! #nadinethecakequeen #yourcakelady #smithslakecakes #weddingcake #travellingcake #trust #loyalty #gratitude #traditionalfruitcake #edibleart #intimatewedding #behindthescenes #sydneywedding
