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
Pretty in pink
Amy got in touch last week to ask me for a cake to take to her mum’s birthday party this weekend. A little bit of a scramble to get it done, but here is a pretty pink sponge layer cake, ideal for a family celebration.
Tractor cake
My neighbour Lewis turned 18 this week. He loves driving tractors and adores his dog Bertie. This is a lemon cake filled with lemon buttercream and topped with sugar models of his two favourite things. Happy birthday Lewis.
Double celebration
Linda’s family have a double birthday celebration this weekend. So this gluten free, dairy free chocolate layer cake was iced in two halves, tied with a sugar bow. I hope the celebrations went well everyone.
Peonies and Roses
I made a cake for Margaret’s mum a couple of years ago. Now her daughter Francine has a significant birthday to celebrate. Francine’s favourite flowers are ‘Bowl of Beauty’ peonies and pink roses, so I made this eye catching sugar bouquet to top her layered sponge cake covered in pink marbled icing. Happy Birthday Francine.
