Welcome to the e-catalogue of “Melbourne’s Mary Poppins of Desserts”, One Sweet Girl.

Within these pages you will find projects I have worked on, plus a selection of the cakes, cupcakes, cookies and desserts that I am now sought after for.

I created the business that is now known as One Sweet Girl from nothing more than my love of baking; since I first stepped into the kitchen in Form 1 at High School, I knew that baking was my Happy Place, and I am so thrilled that it has taken me on such a wonderful journey to where I am now.

I draw a lot of inspiration from the 1950's, where masculine and feminine were truly defined and perhaps at their best. Classic sherbet colours of pink, green, aqua and yellow. Soft ruffled edges, buttons and bows, and beautiful tailoring are all reflected in pieces I create.

I create all my flowers myself, cutting petals by hand if necessary in order to achieve the desired outcome. Cookies are iced with royal icing - no shortcuts using rolled fondant here - and of course, as you would expect, I source only superbly fresh ingredients.

When you engage One Sweet Girl for your next special celebration, you can be sure that your guests will indeed make room for dessert.

Best wishes

Holly loves

Fred

The ‘Holly’ cake was created for a studio shoot where I first met Vir-ginia of The Bouquets of Ascha Jolie. Virginia was desperately ill at the time with pneumonia, but still soldiered on and put on an amazing display of flowers just for this cake.

The idea for ‘Holly’ came to me when I stumbled upon the closing scene from the iconic ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ movie starring Audrey Hep-burn... that final scene where she finally realises in the cab just who it is that loves her, and just what she stands to lose if she ignores her heart’s desire.

Iconic colours of white and black are the main feature, with a touch of bling to echo the diamonds that every girl loves. The top and 3rd tiers feature quilt embossing, and is decorated with a swag of sugar blooms. Everything is grounded on a black presentation board, and some polka dot ribbons added for just a touch of whimsy.

Cake serves 45 as shown.

Matching cupcakes were created in black cases, and feature white fondant over butter cream. Each cupcake is topped with a double ruffled blossom with black piped centres to echo the main cake.

a step back

in time The ‘Vintage Lustre’ cake was created to celebrate a timeless approach to marriage. Brides have opted for classic designs that are timeless and beautiful for decades, and I think that this cake echoes that sentiment perfectly.

A classic stacked arrangement of round tiers is updated by separating the bottom tiers by a riser, into which a ring of sugar blooms has been inserted. The centre tier is then highlighted with edible ivory lustre, and finish the cake is topped with a circlet of the same sugar blooms.

Cake serves 95 as shown. - Matching cupcakes also available.

MARTHA

MARTHA

‘Martha’ is a birthday cake with a difference - it’s all at once beautiful, pretty, girly - yet not overly fussy nor age-specific. This cake was cre-ated originally for an Octogenarian whose favourite colour is pink, but this style of cake would (and has) work perfectly as a wedding cake.

Featuring my signature ruffled blooms, with a black sparkly centre, in a swathed cascade down the face of the cake, and a polka-dot ribbon around the presentation board for just a touch of whimsy.

This dessert table was featured in the October 2011 ‘Entertaining’ edi-tion of Paper Runway magazine {pages 8 - 15}. It is the work of the es-teemed stylist Penny Adams of P. S. I Love You, and I was honoured to be asked to create the desserts for this table.

The desserts prepared included:

Ruffle Cake in lolly pink - serves 20 as pictured

Mini cupcakes with butter cream pearls and chocolate-dipped swirls

Chocolate brownies with nuts

Sugar cookies with royal icing

Rosewater meringues

little red

Stepping straight out of the fairy tale comes this dessert table project created by Thetis of Little Sooti. I was asked to create deserts that were unexpected, a bit left of centre, vintage, and definitely not what people would expect.

The table was brought to life in the woods of Mt Macedon, on a bitterly cold and wet day in July, and the entire project was featured in the launch issue of Tickle The Imagination magazine.

For the main cake, I wanted to tell the tale of the fable, and drew inspiration from Japanese ink drawings - their perspective runs vertically up the page, rather than into, the way most Western art is created... so the base of the cake is marked by wolf prints that vanish into the centre tiers of forest, with the fabled red apple atop the cake as a crowing piece. Using a combination of 2D and 3D effects, the cake is unlike any other LRRH cake I have seen before or since!

The other desserts prepared included:

Apple pies in mini mason jars

Red velvet cakes in small mason jars with vanilla butter cream and red sprinkles

Red velvet cupcakes topped with glittery sugar mushrooms and apples

Sugar cookies with royal icing

Chocolate brownies

{Cake serves 60 as shown}

For as long as I can remember, I have loved and adored peonies. White peonies, pale pink, dark pink, doesn’t matter, just give me peonies!

One day I was dreaming of peonies, and cake, and was looking at a picture a friend of mine had snapped of his clients on their wedding day at the Wil-liamstown Botanic Gardens, and suddenly I could see this table in my head - complete with cake and swathes and swathes of peonies, positioned at the end of an avenue of very green trees.

Of course, there could be no-one else but Virginia of The Bouquets of As-cha Jolie to create the florals I had in my imagination - and as soon as Gin heard what I had in mind, she was as excited as me to see it come to life.

Having been inspired so greatly by that wedding photograph in the gardens, there was also no-one else to ask to shoot this creation but Steve of Steve Koukoulas Photography... and he stepped straight into my imagination, and brought my visions to life.

The table itself was completely covered in 30 bunches of peonies in varying shades of pink; they were draped down the table legs, and also suspended above. Anchoring all this floral beauty is an ombre ruffle cake - but not just any ombre ruffle cake - no, this cake has ruffled petals in shades of peony pink, topped with some ruffled blossoms in the same colours.

I also created some signature ruffled blossom cupcakes to match, peony sugar cookies, cake pops, raspberry marshmallows and some rosewater me-ringues. When it came to the desserts for this table, it was less a case of ‘where to start’ and more a case of ‘where to stop’!

Our Perfectly Peony table was featured on Polka Dot Bride in Jan 2012.

Certainly! The pictures in our gallery are examples of my previous work - they are not an ex-haustive display, merely a showcase for you to look at. All my designs are created in consultation with clients, and while you are welcome to select any cake from our gallery, I do expect to create a custom piece just for you as part of my service.

Helpful things to consider when planning your cake design are:

* The theme of the day, for example, casual and laid back, or formal and elegant?

* The colours of the invitations, flowers and outfits chosen

* Any favourite design motifs that have already been selected for your event, such as butterflies, stars or the like.

I understand that the cake is the focal point of the evening, and work closely with you to ensure that your ideas are brought to life.

2. Can I have more than one flavour for my cake?2. Can I have more than one flavour for my cake?2. Can I have more than one flavour for my cake?2. Can I have more than one flavour for my cake?

Yes, certainly. You are welcome to have a different flavour for each tier, which does not affect the cost.

3 Do you deliver and set3 Do you deliver and set3 Do you deliver and set3 Do you deliver and set----up?up?up?up?

As I consider our cakes to be edible works of art, I do deliver and set-up your order as a stan-dard service. The fee for this is based upon the location of your event.

Although I attempt to accommodate all flavour choices, at this time I am not able to offer these options, as my recipes are only based upon genuine wheat, egg, and dairy products, and therefore cannot provide any guarantees of a quality cake result.

4a. What about nut4a. What about nut4a. What about nut4a. What about nut----free products?free products?free products?free products?

At this time it is not possible for me to offer any nut-free products, as some recipes do contain nuts, and therefore I cannot be certain that no cross-contamination may occur.

5. When should I book my event?5. When should I book my event?5. When should I book my event?5. When should I book my event?

For weddings and engagements, I prefer at least 2 months notice. For birthdays and other occa-sions, I prefer a minimum of 2 weeks, but preferably 4 weeks notice. During some periods of the year (Feb - April, and Sept - Nov), I book up very quickly, so if your event date is within these periods, the sooner you book your date, the more likely it is that I can accommodate your order. Often I can accommodate last minute requests, but acceptance of these is entirely dependent upon availability, and I do not recommend at all that you chance a last minute booking, and be disap-pointed.

Yes, certainly! I offer a cutting cake service in sizes up to 6" diameter, in round or square shapes.

Cutting cakes are approximately 4" in height, and are baked in either the same flavour as your cupcakes, or a complimentary flavour.

It is quite popular for cutting cakes to be served to the bridal party, or the parents of the bride and groom, as a ceremonial part of the cake cutting.

All cutting cakes are decorated to match our cupcakes.

7. How long before my event is my order prepared?7. How long before my event is my order prepared?7. How long before my event is my order prepared?7. How long before my event is my order prepared?

If you have ordered a Traditional Bourbon Fruit Cake, then it is baked as far in advance as possi-ble in order for the cake to mature and fully develop its flavour. All other cakes and baked goods are prepared as close to your event as possible.

A 30% non-refundable deposit is required to secure your date in my diary. The balance is then due 14 days prior to your event. If your event date falls within the 14 day prior time period, then full payment is required at the time of booking.

One day I was searching for inspiration, and stumbled upon a website - Cookie Couture. Long after that day was over, the name stuck with me and struck a chord. “Cookie Couture”... wearable cookies. But, I thought to myself, you can’t wear cookies! At least not in the traditional sense of dresses and pants etc... but that thought kept turning around in my imagi-nation... wearable cookies. Wear. Cookies. Of course! You don’t just wear clothes, you wear jewellery too! Cookies could be made into jewellery - Cookie Couture!

But these cookies couldn’t just be cut out cookies to look like jewellery - you know what I mean, a wedding ring cookie cut-ter shape, or a purse shape, much like you can buy a tea cup or a flower cutter... no, no, no,. these had to be wearable cookies!

A necklace, and a ring, and earrings too - plus a belt, and what about a bracelet - a charm bracelet too? And to cap it off, a couture handbag, one-of-a-kind, just like the meaning of the French word “made to measure” - well, every piece of this collection was made especially for its purpose, so it fit per-fectly!

When I mentioned my idea to my friend Penny Adams of P. S. I Love You, she knew instantly who to ask to model my crea-tions - none other than the amazing Candice DeVille, who is renowned for her impeccable vintage style.

And here we are, everything I could imagine, brought to life and immortalised in perfect Vintage Cookie Splendour.
