A Beautiful Spring Wedding ...

Even on a busy schedule working almost 11 hour days there are some things that you just cannot help but be a part of. 

On the 8th of September, in a beautiful Sydney Spring day my beautiful friend Naima Farah married Demetri Tilliris - and as a 3 yr old promise made with the bride... I will be making her wedding cake. During this time once in a while, one cannot help but think about love ... 

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Tilliris!

à l'amour et la vie ..

Life without love is like a whole year without summer…

Naima is a very very dear friend of mine from work, over the three years of knowing each other we developed an instant connection with our glorious obsession and passion for food with her being a previous chef and me being an aspiring one. 

After a whirlwind romance with the wonderful Demetri, the couple got engaged in sweet, sweet fashion on the 15th of April this year while having a fabulous dinner in Naima's hometown, Adelaide. From then on, it's wedding bells a-ringing! The couple hosted their engagement party on Friday, 15th of June in an intimate gathering of close friends in which I was very lucky to be a part of, let alone having the honour of providing them with engagement cupcakes for the night! Oh what a joy that was, the laughing, the eating and the dancing!
