Four minarets, stood up one at a time and only joined once the cake was where it was going to stay. Their two names are on the plaque at the front.
The horses and the carriage
Two horses, a carriage with wheels that actually turn, and the whole thing sculpted rather than moulded. The bride asked for a fairytale and meant it.
Their initials and the date
Their monogram cut as a mould so it is pressed into the chocolate, not printed on top. One for every guest, with the wedding date under it.
Two to a box
The small hantaran basket, boxed in pairs. The weave and the handle are moulded, then painted by hand so no two come out identical.
One in the hand
Boxed singly for a guest to carry home. The lid lifts off, which is the detail people check first and the reason the mould took three tries.
The kampung house
Rumah panggung, roof tile by roof tile, standing on its own chocolate stilts. The hardest part was not the carving, it was getting it to hold its own weight.
Hari jadi & sambutan
Happy Birthday Mummy
Her children asked for roses and her name on a heart. The roses are chocolate, the leaves are chocolate, and the gold on them is edible.
The gold shoe
She loved shoes and she loved singing, so we gave her both: a stiletto on top and music notes running the whole way round the base.
The Monkey King
Sun Wukong with his staff and his hand up, sculpted from a photograph the family sent. The peaches around him are solid chocolate, painted rose gold.
The longevity peach
For a milestone birthday, the peach has to be the biggest thing on the table. This one is a single hollow shell, cast in one piece and painted by hand.
Two tiers, one character
The character on the front is 壽, carved into chocolate rather than piped on. Ordered for an eightieth, and cut in front of four generations.
Good fortune, by the tray
The character on every lid is 福. Made in batches for a new year, and the run is counted twice before it leaves, because nobody wants to be one short.
The candles going out
A family in red, three generations of them, and a granddaughter who got herself into the photograph. This is the only part of the job that matters.
To my teacher
A stack of books and an apple, engraved and boxed. Ordered every year around Teachers’ Day, usually by a whole class putting in together.
The club crest
Cast from a mould cut to the crest, then painted so the raised lines catch the light. Ordered by a wife who had run out of ideas for a fortieth.
Korporat & pesanan pukal
The logo, pressed in
The logo was cut as a mould, so the mark is in the chocolate itself and not on a sticker. A dealership handed these out across a launch weekend.
A hundred and twenty of them
The whole department in one room on Nurses’ Day, and enough chocolate for every one of them. The count on an order like this has no margin for error.
The open book
A cake built as an open book, both pages readable, set up on site under the balloons before the team came in. The printing on the pages is chocolate too.
One for every nurse
Nurses’ Day at a private hospital. The crest, the company name and the greeting all on one heart, and enough of them for every shift.
Selamat Hari Raya
The script is raised off a woven ground, both cut into the same mould. Festive runs like this get booked weeks out, because everyone wants the same week.
Six to a box, a hundred boxes
A tenth anniversary. Six pieces to a set, the anniversary mark on one of them, packed and counted against the client list.
The award, in chocolate
An appreciation night that wanted trophies nobody would leave in a drawer. Filigree across the crest, the event engraved into the plinth, and every bit of it edible.
Framed, not boxed
A gift meant to sit on a desk rather than be eaten that afternoon. Chocolate mounted and framed, and it keeps for months if it is kept out of the sun.
The guitar
Cut to the shape of the brand rather than a square with a logo on it. Shaped moulds cost more to make and are the reason the piece gets kept.
