Baked a Cake

I can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow too. Sharing our birthday is not the only thing that Wilson and I have in common - he totally shares my love of Grug too! Grug books were a childhood favourite of mine so I was excited when Wilson decided on a 'Grug and the rainbow' cake for his 3rd birthday party.

I loved this colour palette and felt like a bit of a tiler creating this little cake for my lovely friends 40th ????

Hand-painted roses for a special little girl's christening. I love being asked to make cakes for special occasions and how much more special can a day get than the naming day of The Boy's God Daughter.

Nyeema's wish for her 10th birthday was a Disney themed backyard party with her family. Not a family do do things by halves, we all dressed up in our Disney best with appearances from Snow White and Prince Charming, Elsa, Pinnochio, Minnie and Micky, Tinkerbell, Mary Poppins and Bert and twin Rapunzel's.

This quote could not be truer than true for Ayla. She is such a creative soul and to anyone that has spent even just a moment with Ayla senses that she may have been on this Earth more than her age suggests.

So I'm finally getting around to sharing my last cake from my Styled Shoot with MJK Creative and Autumn Kisses Floral Design from last year. It's been a whirlwind few months after getting back from overseas, Christmas and getting back into the swing of things with the day job and caking again. Looking forward to creating some pretty special cakes over the coming months! 

I think Henry James said it best - "There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea". Especially when an afternoon tea looks as pretty, and tastes as delicious as these three cakes. If you also get to enjoy your afternoon tea with two talented friends, it is even more agreeable in my books. 

It's certainly been a little quiet on the cake front hasn't it! With a couple of months galavanting overseas and then throw in Christmas and New Year for good measure, there hasn't been much time for me to bake, let alone blog about it. To celebrate 2017 is spectacular fashion, I thought it was time to show of this shimmering beauty from a styled shoot with MJK Creative and Autumn Kisses Floral Design from last year. 

Oh this baby is going to be so unbelievably loved! Kim and Mike will soon be joined by their little ‘Steggy’ and I can’t wait to meet him/her. 

Octonauts, to your stations!

Barnacles, Kwazii, Peso, Dashi, Shellington, Tweak and Tunip… If your like me and don’t have little ones at home, you will have next to no idea what I’m talking about.
