So Gemma has reached the big 40. what better way to celebrate than with a glass of champagne? This is a vanilla cake filled with jam and buttercream topped with a sugar bottle and glass. All edible, cheers!
Champagne birthday
Month: June 2022
Space Ship
For Henry’s 6th birthday party, Natalie chose this vanilla sponge layered with buttercream. On top is midnight blue fondant and a scene from outer space with sparkly stars and a full moon. Hope the party was not too boisterous – enjoy a well earned glass of wine afterwards.
Sailing boat
Karen was meant to be taking Kevin on holiday this week to celebrate a landmark birthday. Unfortunately the holiday was cancelled so we had to do a very quick turn round on this gluten-free lemon sponge layered with fresh lemon curd, so that at least he had a cake to cheer him up.
Golfers cake
Tiffany’s dad is a keen golfer and is over in the UK from his home in Tenerife to celebrate his big birthday with his children and grandchildren. Underneath this golf green is a vanilla sponge layered with raspberry jam.
Family Book Cake
Gill asked me to make a cake for her daughter Jo’s 50th birthday celebrations. She saw pictures on this page of my old book cake and liked the idea so we have gone with something similar. The family are split in their cake tastes so underneath the sugar pages, I made one side of this book chocolate cake with squidgy chocolate ganache filling and the other side a vanilla sponge with jam and buttercream. Jo’s family is the centre of her universe so a little picture of them (plus the dog and cat of course) went on the frontispiece.
