I made a cake for Emma’s Dad last year, and now it was his partner Lil’s turn for a big birthday. I had a very particular request for a chocolate sponge covered in chocolate buttercream. On top is Lil herself in her bowling kit surrounded by gardening paraphernalia and her favourite white and purple flowers. Emma managed to transport it over to Swanage without incident and it lasted until it was needed on party day. Happy birthday Lil.
