Vision in blue.

I made this cake for my daughter's 5th birthday, she loves the colour blue. It is a fairly simple cake with the bow made out of fondant, rather than gumpaste.

I made these cookies with the initial of each child that attend the party, as you can see they were last minute and pretty much rushed!!

These cupcakes were also a last minute addition, I have really got to work on my piping skills!!

Daisy Delight!

This is a Birthday cake that I made for my elder daughter ( I have two girls) It is very simple, but I was happier with the way this one turned out, at least it doesn't look as if it is about to collapse.

Beginnings

I thought I would share one of the first cakes that I had baked and decorated, though there were many others before, i do not have any pictures. Note the unevenness of the cake, I've since learned that there are many techniques to ensure nice level cakes some of which I have acquired through reading and some that I have developed myself, which I hope to share in later posts. Also it is very evident that the cake is about to buckle in at the side, again due to uneven bases. I used buttercream to decorate this cake and fondant flower cut outs. I knew very well at the time that this cake was anything but amazing, but my family liked it, especially my daughter who was 2 at the time! ( The tray is pretty cool though!)
