Baked a Cake

“Are you thinking what I’m thinking B1?”
“I think I am B2 – this cake is just too cute!”

What cake do you make to celebrate a landscape-loving drummer's 40th birthday? A snare drum made to look like a tree stump of course! 

I seriously cannot believe that this sweet little girl is TWO!

Miss Alice celebrated her second birthday last month with a fun little party in the park full of climbing, slippery slides, Thomas trains, Cinderella dolls and scooter rides.

I was thrilled to make the engagement cake for my loved up work buddy Kim and her fiancé Mike. These little lovebirds held their engagement party earlier this month overlooking a sparkling Lake Macquarie, wooden ladders and boards overflowing with all the good things in life – cheese, wine, champagne… - and the ultimate paella.

I think Kylie may have been the most laid back bride ever, not even her wedding venue falling into Lake Macquarie just 10 days prior to the big day was enough to turn this lovely bride-to-be into a 100 foot tall, Tokyo crushing, Bride-zilla.

While we're not your typical Valentine's Day couple, when I was asked to make a little Valentine's cake for a sweet couple I had to say yes. After trying Simone’s 30^th cake, Anna tried to think of the next occasion she could for a cake – any excuse for a cake! Fortunately Valentine’s Day was just around the corner.

Pink, blue, multicoloured/cheerful, M&M’s, marvellous creations and chocolate. That was the brief and what the birthday girl wants, the birthday girl gets.

With chocolate overloading the Easter break I decided to make a hot cross bun flavoured cake with a sweet coconut buttercream and super cute bunny ears. Take a look at the recipe by clicking 'read more' :)

The Boy is the by far the biggest kid I know and is always the first one to steal a piece of fairy bread from the table at any kids party we go to. So, it was only fitting that I make him a giant piece of fairy bread for his 29th birthday. 

Happy 29th my love, bring on next year's 30th! 

Last weekend we celebrated the 80th birthday of a very special lady, Mary, the Boy’s beautiful Nan and I was asked to make the cake for the celebration.
