Ok - I officially LOVED that! Over 450 comments this time which is awesome. And you have all got a lot better at this. I was genuinely worried for quite a while that I wasn’t going to find any comments that were un-emojied!

But one person - Jo Hunt - clearly didn’t have much else on this afternoon and she managed to get a whopping 7 comments through the net earning herself 7 entries into the draw! Some of her comments were also hidden for a while as FB thought she was a scammer! 😂 There was only one other comment that was unemojied - well done Rachel Vienna for earning one entry.

Honorable mentions to Helen Ann who earned herself a made me laugh entry with her ‘I can’t believe it’s not cake’ post and also made me laugh a lot with her phone battery dilemma! And also to Dee-Dee Rast-Lindsell who earned a made me laugh entry with her post about me keeping my husband - I do need to keep him as he does all my invoices!

Thanks everyone for taking part….looking forward to next time already!! Watch the video until the end to find out our worthy winner.

STOP!!!! No more comments or emojis please (hopefully I have changed the settings to stop any more!) Wowzers….results will be in once I’ve girded my loins and gone through the 400 odd comments looking for any that have snuck through!!!

*Update - this bad boy is not disappointing!! Nearly 200 comments so far and from a quick scroll only a very small number have escaped un-emojied!! I’ll stop commenting at some random point this afternoon so it’s all to play for!! 😂🌸🧁

GIVEAWAY* - I’ve not done a giveaway for months so as a thank you for indulging me with my Summer Series, I thought I’d get my finger out and do one!! And because I SO enjoyed the ‘zero likes’ challenge I ran earlier in the year, I’m going to do another!

It’s very easy - all you have to do is make a comment on this post (this post only, others won’t count for the challenge) and if your comment remains unliked (or any other emoji-ed) when I close the challenge some time tomorrow afternoon then you win!! If more than one comment is un-liked then I’ll draw a winner at random. You can comment as many times as you like and obviously interact with as many comments as you like to foil your competitors! I won’t interact with any in the name of fair play!

And because of the pure hilarity of some of the comments last time, I will give a bonus entry into the draw to the comment that makes me laugh the most!

And if you win, you can choose from a 7 or 12 cupcake bouquet or a 24 mini bouquet. Collection only from North Abingdon at a mutually convenient date/time!

Off, you……GO!

Summer series!

25. My final post of my summer series - I’ve had such fun reminiscing!

This one is a bit of a cheat as it’s more than one cake, but these bouquets were all gold medal winners in the Buttercream Bloom Awards of yesteryear! The competition doesn’t run any more which I’m sort of glad about as it did cause me to spend a lot of my summer holiday scratching around to find new votes! But I still think these bouquets make a lovely set and I’m very proud of them!

Giveaway post incoming over the weekend! 😀🌸🧁

Summer series!

24. The humble 7 cupcake bouquet - she may be small but she packs quite a punch! And this is one of my favourites of all time. No idea why I piped it - I think it might have been one of many Mother’s Day arrangements. I’ve been asked to recreate it a few times but have never managed to get it is good as the original.

Summer series!

23: Just a few of these left now. Hopefully you’ve enjoyed my look back over some of my favourite bakes of the past four years….remember to stay tuned for a giveaway at the end of the week - interacting with my posts helps you make sure you won’t miss any!

Here’s another of my most requested cakes - luckily I really enjoy making them! This one was, I think, for a wedding and the subtle heart shape in the middle a happy accident.

Summer series!

22. Couldn’t have a favourites series without this little gem! I have literally no idea what possessed me to make a cake in this style….except maybe that I was asked specifically to make bluebells and I could think of no other way of doing it!

I love how different it is to most of my other work and not sure I’d ever do one like it again. Although even as I’m sitting here typing I’m thinking I could make a pretty awesome foxgloves cake using the same technique…..any takers?!

Summer series!

21: Love a mini bouquet and this one is no exception. I know this was made for a wedding, literally have no idea what the brief was but I think the colour combinations are so pleasing.

I have certainly learned over the course of this series that it’s colour that makes or breaks a cake for me. Choosing the right colours and pairing them successfully is so important in any art form. I’m actually planning a colour theory class, possibly to roll out at home or at the Cake College or maybe even online!! Watch this space!

Summer series!

20: One of my favourite cake stories, if not cakes!

This one was made for one of life’s best people. I’d like to say her husband commissioned me to make it but that would be a big fat fib - what actually happened was I guessed he may have been too busy running the building industry to organise anything for her special birthday so I offered to make something. We knew what flavour she would would like but had no idea on design.

So…..I ran a little poll on my page with nine cakes with different designs to choose from - I was 100% confident she would comment as she always does, and she did not disappoint! And this cake was made in the design that she had chosen as her favourite!

Summer series!

19. Appropriately a 19 cupcake bouquet. Definitely my favourite size to make….if you can eat this much cake they make such a great centrepiece for a special celebration.

No idea when or why I made this one but the colour combination is one I come back to time and again - the pop of vivid blue; the dark accent in the cream flowers; the dusky pink roses. 😘

18. I think this is my all time favourite of these tiered cake/cupcake set ups. I got such a clean finish on the cake, the colours are beautiful and, for a little added joy, it was to celebrate not a wedding, but a 60th wedding anniversary. As I’m sure I’ve said before, any old fool can get married but it takes a special kind of fool to stay married for 60 years!! 🥰🥰🥰

(Disclaimer: none of my wonderful customers are fools, I think they are all eminently sensible for buying my cakes!)
