100th birthday countryside cake

So this was lovely to do. Karen’s dad was 100 this weekend. He is very fit and is still a keen walker, loves the garden and enjoys bird watching. Karen sent me a photo and I did my best to recreate him sitting on a garden bench in his walking boots amongst the flowers with his binoculars on his lap. A countryside scene around the side, completed the picture. Underneath it all is a rich fruit cake which meant I could spend plenty of time getting the decorations right. Great fun. Very many congratulations

Golfing cake

Karen’s dad was 90 last weekend and they marked the day with a little chocolate cake decorated with a golfing theme. There were just four of them so the cake was only 6″ across but we managed to get the necessary detail in. I understand it went down well. Happy birthday

Spanish birthday

Joel contacted me as they were coming down to Milford to celebrate his partner Ana’s birthday. Ana is Spanish and the place she comes from is well known for ceramics with a particular traditional design. We incorporated this design on Ana’s chocolate cake with her greeting in Spanish, sprinkled with lavish quantities of edible glitter. Happy birthday Ana

Computer cake

A little while ago I made another birthday cake for Jack. It has become something of an annual tradition to have a big white square cake with blue and white bunting and a different aspect of Jack’s life modelled on the top. This year it was his computer and headphones. I understand your party was a great success again Jack. Many happy returns
