Christening Cakes



Thanks to Stephanie I have some lovely photos of the Christening Cakes I made last week.  I hope you like them x

Little Roses


I love making these little roses, they are fairly easy but look really beautiful on the top of cucpakes (or big cakes for that matter).  They are for 30th Birthday cakes that I am making next week.  The great thing about these flowers is that you can make them in advance (as long as you keep them in an airtight container).  I will be making and posting a video on how to make them in the next week or so (we tried last night but the video skills need a little attention before we go live!).  lots of love x

The Big Baking Weekend!

Lots of cupcakes this weekend with button and butterfly cakes for a christening, cake pops for a childrens party and cakes for the first fair of the season!!!! Its great to get back out on the Fair circuit and meet all the other lovely stall holders.  Cobham was the location today and made lots of great connections and met a fellow baker which is always good to swap a few ideas.  Anyway here are some photos of this weekends creations........xx
