Huay Pin's Bridal Shower - 27 Dec 2014

When Tjin Ng approached us to host her sister Huay Pin's Bridal Shower, we were excited. We crossed a few e-mails and recommended a few class options that we could do for her. She finally decided on a Fondant Cupcakes Baking and Decorating - Bridal theme class. It was always nice to see old friends get together again and new ones meeting each other for the first time in a Bridal Shower.

After all the introductions and group photo (that's a must especially before class starts!), the class began with the girls baking cupcakes (some for the first time...never baked before....no worries, you are in good hands). Cupcakes in the oven and it was time to decorate. The girls has so much fun shaping fondant into various shapes and designs that represented the bridal theme. They were so creative. Most of all, everyone bonded and had such fun baking together. Well, congratulations to Huay Pin and may this fun and happiness be the start of your Happily Ever After!!

Christmas Cheers for Butterfly Bloggers - 20 Dec 2014

At 19 Culinary Studio first got to know Tammy when she was freelancing for an online marketing company way back in 2011. We worked well together, she was in editorial in charge of our deals. How time flies. Tammy has taken the initiative to mentor a group of young aspiring food & lifestyle bloggers as her little project called The Butterfly Project. We thought the name was so cool!

When Tammy asked us to sponsor a Christmas Baking class for her Butterfly Project bloggers, we could not say no. We are always happy to encourage and support budding aspiring young bloggers. The bloggers had such great fun and so did we. They baked and decorated Christmas Gingerbread Cookies. What a creative lot. Cameras and selfies were the order of the day......the cookies too!!

Cake of the month - Dec 2014

It’s time again for us to feature our “Cake of the month” to showcase what we consider our best custom made order cake. The Cake of the month for Dec is Baby Rachel's full moon cake. We made a delicious moist chocolate cake covered with pink fondant for a pretty baby girl. It was a square cake rather than the conventional round ones topped with teddy, butterfly, presents, ribbons and hearts.

Li Hwa wrote to us and said she wanted a special designer fondant cake for her daughter's full moon. She sent us a photo of her dream cake and we re-created the design for her. We loved it and so did Li Hwa. It was so fabulous!

Well, we can't be happier than to know we have made someone happy. Have a special event coming up? Need a special cake? Take a peek at our Cake Creations gallery: http://www.at19culinary.com/gallery_cake.html. For enquiries on our custom order designer cakes, please send us an e-mail at contact@at19culinary.com. We try to help fit all budgets.

Food Styling & Food Photography Class - 28 Nov 2014

We were very excited when the date for our 1st Food Styling and Food Photography class, aptly named "Plate to Pixel", drew near. It was a beautiful morning with the sun shining bright and cheerful which was important to capture natural lighting (one of the pointers for good photography).

Our two photographers, Audrey and Michelle, were on hand to facilitate the class. Audrey started with a briefing to the participants on the 12 important pointers for food styling and photography. We can't help but noticed that our youngest participant was just 14 years old! Imam had great fun and so did the rest of the participants.

It was a very practical and hands-on class with everyone practising how to style food to make it look delicious, using natural ingredients like garlic oil. Next, out came i-pads, smart phones, SLR cameras to capture the food moments. Participants were taught how to shoot photos of the food in their best angle and lighting. Aids like reflectors and props and how to use them to take fabulous photos were explained. It was indeed a fun and fulfilling day.

For those of you who missed the class, we are running a similar class in Jan and Mar 2015. So, do look out for the dates in our new Class Calender Jan-Apr 2015 which will be up on our website after Christmas. For enquiries, you can call us at 016-377 8236.

Cake of the month - Nov 2014

It’s time again for us to feature our “Cake of the month” to showcase what we consider our best custom made order cake. The Cake of the month for Nov is a Wedding Cake. We were very excited when we got this order because it was such a simple yet elegant cake.

When Kah May contacted us to do her wedding cake, the brief was "No fuss, no need tiers, small cake will do, just simple white fondant with pink roses". She e-mailed us two pictures and asked us to do a combi of the two for her wedding cake. The result was simply beautiful and elegant, we almost cried! We nicknamed it the "white beauty". Hey, Kah May, we congratulate you and wish you happily ever after...

Well, we can't be happier than to know we have made someone happy. Have a special event coming up? Need a special cake?
