A 70th birthday cake for a lovely gentlemen last week. The design follows a photo provided by my client.

Too much black food colouring can produce an artificial taste or potential staining of the teeth. So what did I use?

Black cocoa powder.

It is a game-changer for creating deep, dark buttercream. It’s ultra-alkalized cocoa that’s been processed to achieve an almost charcoal color - think the darkness of Oreo cookies.

This gives you a rich, sophisticated black while adding a subtle chocolate flavor that actually enhances rather than masks your buttercream.

Not cake related, just a little shout out to these two brilliant girls, Chloe and Daisy. Doing odd jobs to earn a bit of £££. Facebook won’t let me tag their page but you can find them as Oakham Helpers. They are fully supervised by mum. Highly recommend.

A & J knew exactly what they wanted for their wedding cake when they enquired. They sent me a photo of one of my cakes and said ā€˜This one, but with ivory roses and calla lilies’

Swipe to the end to see the cake that inspired theirs āž”ļø

Sugar flowers are time consuming and detailed, but that’s part of why I love them. It is such a challenge to make each one as perfect as it can be.

And when I receive a review like this, then I know I’ve done a great job!

Buttercream Basics class where beginners leave the class piping vintage Lambeth like this. Yes, really!

The blank canvas. A plain cake waiting for magic - exactly where every student starts

Learning the basics, mastering buttercream consistency, getting comfortable with piping bags, finding your rhythm

First attempts. Remember, every expert decorator started with wobbly lines, yours will be steadier than you think

The moment it clicks - watching my students realise they can actually do it

Adding little blossoms and details

From ā€˜I have never piped’ or ā€˜I have never decorated a cake’ to the finished masterpiece. Your cake at the end, decorated entirely by you, ready to wow everyone at home

Congratulations L & C šŸ¤

They chose :

Apple & Cinnamon with Salted Caramel for the top tier
Vanilla with Biscoff for the bottom tier

I didn’t think I would like this as much as I do but I do and I love it! The design follows an inspiration photo sent by my bride. Unfortunately I don’t know who the original cake artist is to credit. The cake display came together so well with styling and champagne tower by Bethany Your Luxury Wedding Venue Stylist and beautiful flowers by The bloom project // Emma

I’m a very lucky girl! Somehow things just fell in place and I found myself in Glasgow for a few days for my birthday 😊

I knew exactly what I wanted to do for the first two days, hunt as many Scotties on as I could. There are 92 altogether and I knew I couldn’t collect all of them so I just concentrated on the big ones. My Scotties collecting adventure took me to so many beautiful places, parks and even large shopping centres. I now have a list of places to revisit and tours to book for the next time we’re back in Glasgow.

Of course I couldn’t leave without a day trip to Edinburgh, I love it so much. Everyone was talking about the Fringe festival so I had to go. The city was absolutely buzzing! Such a great atmosphere, I just soaked it all in walking down the Royal Mile. Then I was off on the tour bus to Dean Village which we missed the last time we were here, the Royal Botanical Gardens (definitely revisiting) and a walk along the sea in Newhaven stopping for fish n chips.

I’ve had a wonderful 3 days without my iPad and by the time I got back to the hotel I was too tired to even pick it up!

Home now and ready to be back in the studio from Monday! Have a fabulous weekend ###
