Sweet overload

Rather a last minute request from Oren’s mum for this Victoria sponge layered with jam and buttercream and smothered in Oren’s favourite sweets. It was the centre piece for his 7th birthday party – nothing like providing a major sugar rush for a room full of excited 7 year olds!

Two tier chocolate

For Sally’s big birthday she had a fabulous party at the yacht club this weekend. She loves chocolate and bright colours and gave me a list of her favourite chocolate bars and sweets that absolutely had to be on her yellow and pink cake. Inside are lemon sponges layered with fresh lemon curd and buttercream with a decadent dark chocolate ganache drip over coloured buttercream icing. I am so glad your celebration went off well Sally – I hope the cake helped.

Sweet explosion

I have been making Margot’s birthday cake for a few years now. This year she has gone for an outrageous explosion of sweetshop sweets on top of a layered red velvet cake. Don’t eat it all at once Margot!
