To be honest, I don't really like baking. So why I take up orders you wonder? Well because I love designing them actually. Hehehe. Cakes especially. When customers gave the magic sentence "I leave it to you for the design", fooohhh that is my favourite!
I get inspired by some angmo bakers who design so pretty cakes! I love looking at pretty cakes hence I follow afew from Instagram. Those pretty cakes make me feel erm pretty. Hahahaha!!
My ideas in designing are always there. The drawings are inside my brain already but when the empty canvas aka naked cake is right infront of my eyes, alot of other ideas came in. Hence, they are never gonna be the same as how I've drafted.
I can't say that my designs are nice lahhh but still acceptable right? Huahuahua! Though I always thought that I can do better. But no, I'm not the kind that will redo if I'm not happy. Afterall it is my own piece of "art" too so I gota love my work righttt...
I have changed my "business" name recently about a couple of months ago. I think it was in September. It is now called Si Kidal Bakes. Si Kidal is "the lefty". Yes I am a lefty. And so The Lefty Bakes. Yep.
When I changed my name, I gota change my logo too lah right. When I was in poly taking my diploma (tak perlu eh haha), I took Idealism (or something like that) during 1 semester for my extra class. I forgot what these extra classes called. Ok nevermind.
So 1 of the topics was about logos. Companies do their logos according to their business and resembles something that gotta do with their business too. So I thought I shall make use of the "knowledge" I had. Hah!
1st thing came in my mind, pink. I love pink accessories, cutleries, etc. Hence my kitchen items are mostly pink and that includes my Kitchenaid mixer which I named her Kimberly! Got it? K for Kitchenaid, K for Kimberly. And Kimberly is the pink ranger. Hahaha!
The original photo of that mixer is actually the mirror image but I mirrored it because I'm a lefty remember so it has gotta face the left.
I Googled for pink cutleries and place it at the corner to avoid a messy look. Put a whisk into the mixing bowl to make it less empty. And I make sure my business name is bold and visible to see even if I put a light watermark at my photos. Not forgetting my Instagram page and hashtag! Important you know that 1. Hah!
Noticed something about SI KiDAL BAKES? Yep the 'i' for the Kidal is not capslock. It is becauseee my LEFT wrist has this mole that is quite big and dark. No lah not bigggg with bulu haha. A dot lah but big. Erm 5mm big? I used to want to remove it but my mom said that mole is something unique which I should be grateful about. It can also be a sign of rezki. Ok lah I must be grateful atleast it is not huge with bulu right. Heh. So to feel honoured, I shall implement it into my logo, at the word kidal to be precised, to remind myself that some imperfection makes people perfect. Sapppppp.... Bangga mak!
I take weekends and Mondays orders only. To be collected on Saturdays to Mondays only. I used to take weekdays orders also but ehhh tiring lah nyah! I cannot. So I stopped lah. Focus on weekends only.
Ok lah so don't forget to support me. I do normal vanilla and chocolate cakes only. No fancy tasting cakes. Tak kuasa akak haha. And I also do rainbow cake lah which I don't favour in doing. Banyak colok lah ni baker. Hahaha!
