Cakes Glorious Cakes!

You may be starting to realise I love cakes, eating them, making them, looking at them, buying them, the lot!!

For my daughter's last birthday she decided it was going to be a horse themed birthday, she had a horse riding party, so of course I had to give a horse cake a go.

I made the castle cake for my daughter's 4th birthday and then attempted it again for it to be auctioned at a charity event.  I was very glad with how this cake turned out, it certainly pays to practise, as this second attempt was much neater, straighter and looked more impressive.  Perfect cake for any little princess.

Beautiful bouquet of flowers cake, which I made for my mum, so very simple to make but very effective.  I would like to recreate this cake but by using a ceramic pot plant as the base.

I made this very special cake for my mum's 65th surprise birthday party.  I was under pressure on the day to get this completed with kids running around my ankles, but I am so pleased with the final look.  There is lots of intricate handmade decorations on the individual cupcakes that I also made.

Anyone fancy a slice of cake? x
