Alfie was 9 a couple of weeks ago and had a very exciting adventure party outing at the weekend. Jam and buttercream sponge and a giant number 9. Happy birthday Alfie

Golfing 80th
Marie-Claire’s mum is 80 today. She should really be out on the golf course on a beautiful spring day like this but a big family celebration will be much more fun. This is a vanilla sponge filled with jam and buttercream. Have a lovely day.
Easter bunny cake
For Beth, a caramel layer cake, white chocolate ganache drip, pink hundreds and thousands, a white chocolate Easter bunny and millions of Mini Eggs. Happy Easter everyone.
Spitfire cake
Jenny’s brother is visiting the UK for the first time since before lockdown. It is his birthday and he is a spitfire aficionado. So Jenny asked me if I could make a cake with a spitfire ‘flying over it’. Hmmm, not quite suspended but here is my version of the sugar plane soaring above the clouds. Hope you all had a lovely day.
Learning to drive
Rufus is 17 today and is all set to learn to drive. Here is a cake to celebrate the milestone and of course, no cake for Rufus would be complete without his trusty Irish Terrier Jumble. Hope you all had a good day.
Spring daffodils
Here is a cake for Jackie’s spring birthday. Lemon sponge layered with buttercream and fresh lemon curd lies inside this pretty cake with hand made sugar daffodils. I know your dad couldn’t join you but I hope your delayed celebration went well.
Canal Holiday cake
Gardener’s vegetable plot
This birthday cake for a gardening enthusiast was enormous fun to make. Lots of tiny sugar vegetables in a grated chocolate vegetable patch decorating a layered jam and buttercream sponge. Hope you had a good day Robert.
Paw Patrol birthday
Last year Fearn had Peppa Pig on her cake, this year it needed to be ‘Skye’ from Paw Patrol. I checked it out with my own four-year-old grand daughters who confirmed it was a good idea and must be ‘lovely and pink’. Add some sugar hearts, bones, paw prints and sparkles and hopefully this two tiered jam and vanilla layer cake will meet the approval of the birthday girl.
Formula 1 retirement
Linda’s husband had his retirement party this weekend. He is a keen F1 follower as well as a photographer. We captured these in sugar model form and added some other aspects of his life in sugar ‘photos’ on this chocolate fudge cake. Plenty for everyone. Hope it went well
