Fearn’s family love owls and this year her birthday party has taken on the owl theme. Fearn’s grandparents always organise her cake and asked me to make this one with a rather solemn looking but endearing sugar owl perched on the top.

Beth’s mum is a keen gardener and fills her garden with beautiful flowers. Here is her birthday cake – a jam and buttercream filled vanilla sponge decorated as a pretty garden with pink roses climbing up the sides. All edible and a treat for the family party
Richard’s vegetable patch
Richard is 80 this weekend. He is a keen gardener and his wife Liz asked me to make this surprise vegetable patch cake for their weekend away with the family. Inside is a vanilla sponge layered with jam and buttercream. On top are sugar vegetables (yes even sprouts) set in chocolate soil with a pair of wellies, a spade and a jolly robin on the top. I hope you all have a lovely time.
Scottish Birthday
There is a double birthday in this family so Jenny ordered a gluten free vanilla sponge filled with jam and buttercream so that everyone can celebrate together. Decorated with tartan ribbon, thistles and flags and of course a jolly highland cow in the middle, I hope this is Scottish enough for you all!

Cake for a cancer research champion
It is Hannah’s birthday today. She has had a really rough year dealing with a diagnosis and then treatment for breast cancer.

Here is her cake festooned with the iconic pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness. Happy Birthday Hannah, you are a star.
The Gruffalo
Twins Evie and Harry are having their second birthday party today. The Gruffalo is a firm favourite of theirs so here is a chocolate fudge cake topped with all the familiar characters from the story. Hopefully no roasted fox, owl ice cream or scrambled snake today. Have fun

On top are some delicious macarons (courtesy of the sugar glaze bakery) and a handful of strawberries, Yum. I hope it was pink and stripy enough Iris!
