Time Out

Hi Guys,

Sorry I've had a bit of time out from blogging. Sometimes, if you make too many cakes for your nearest and dearest they start worrying about their weight!!!  Anyhow, I have recently made a few pretty cakes for various occasions and I thought I might share them with you. 

60th Anniversary Fruit Cake 

Now this cake was made by the customer who also covered it in marzipan (not very evenly). It was a bit tricky to get it as even as I wanted. But the end result was pretty pleasing. She only wanted a simple design and didn't want to pay a fortune on getting the cake decorated. 

Pagan Handfasting Cake

Never one to turn down a challenge I was approached by a couple who wanted a cake for their hand fast. This ceremony is pretty much like a wedding. But don't worry there's no dancing around with no clothes on. They wanted the cake to have a natural theme and not the classic wedding cake with a bride and groom on top. They had already done that years ago! So I thought of various ideas and decided that cherry blossoms were beautiful and in keeping.

Two Tier Fruit Cake 

I hope you like these designs and maybe have caused some inspiration for your next creation.
