It’s been a few months since I made a birthday cake…

This one is for Miss Daisy’s 4th Birthday.

I named this cake’s recipe after her, when I discovered it’s allergy friendly ingredients and went on to make her 1st birthday cake using it… I can’t believe we’re on cake number 4 already 😱🥰

This ‘Daisy’s Chocolate Cake’ was decorated using her latest obsession, Barbie, and as it’s July… of course Barbie needed to be at the beach.

It was finished in chocolate frosting, tinted vanilla frosting and crushed digestive biscuits.

This bake was a joy and honour to do…

For the marriage of my sister-in-law, and her fiancé, Steve, I was asked if I would bake them 72 cupcakes for their wedding reception.

I won’t take credit for the main cake, as that wonderful 4 tiered fruitcake was made by my amazing mother-in-law, Angela.

The cupcakes were x24 of:
Lemon sponge, with a lemon curd centre and lemon buttercream.

Vanilla sponge, with a strawberry jam centre and vanilla buttercream.

Red Velet sponge, with vanilla buttercream

These were all topped with handmade fondant sunflowers.

2nd Christmas Cake.
I made and gifted this to my sister… who absolutely loves Rich Fruit Cake.

This cake was made using the Mary Berry’s Rich Fruit Cake recipe.
I adjusted the recipe to make a smaller 6” version.

I decorated with marzipan and white fondant. Finishing with red star fondant decorations, edible silver beads and a cupcake case to form the design of a festive bauble.
