Rosemary and Derek wanted a memorable cake for their son’s 60th birthday. They chose a Victoria sandwich cake in the shape of classic sports car. We added personalised number plates and some silver lustre to make it sparkle. I hope it went down well Rosemary, it was great fun to make.
I made a birthday cake for Amy’s mum a couple of years ago and she contacted me again to ask for a golden wedding cake for their important family celebration. This is a layered vanilla sponge with jam and buttercream filling, topped with gold and white blossoms and gold script. She picked the cake up on the way to the family celebration. Hope you all had fun and that the cake went down well.
Kens wife Elizabeth is a keen quilter and he asked if I could bake her a special birthday cake with the sort of applique quilting squares that she sews as part of the design. Inside is a marzipan covered gluten-free fruit cake.
Jackie’s daughter is a ‘Swifty’ and has tickets for her upcoming concert in London. She had to talk me through exactly what was needed for a Taylor Swift birthday cake as I’m afraid Abba and Elton John are more my era. However, I can now recite all the album names plus their associated colours and symbols.. who knew?. Inside this creation is a layered chocolate, vanilla and chocolate orange sponge. I hope this cuts it Jackie, it was great fun to do.
Rachel’s daughter Emma turned 50 last weekend and a cake was needed. My remit was something simple and pretty with flowers, her name, and the number 50. This is what we came up with – underneath is a jam and buttercream filled sponge.
Mary has made a lovely fruit cake for her friend’s birthday but asked my if I would ice it with a golfing theme. The cake looked and smelled delicious when I opened it up Mary, hope it is a success.
