Realised today that my kids have never had what I term, a “mum cake”!
You know the one, the ones our mums would make back in the 80’s/90’s, that was made for every birthday and then wrapped in cling wrap to go in the lunch box the next day, where you’d spend recess licking the melted icing off the cling wrap because ice bricks weren’t a thing back then.
Maybe I’m feeling nostalgic because I’m sick and yearning for that comfort of “back in the day”
So I made my kids one, complete with the no effort icing and sprinkles, although my flu addled brain did forget an ingredient…
Anyhoo, 2 thumbs up from my youngest so it’s a winner!
