Mr & Mrs Easter Chick – Creme Egg Creatures

I’m going retro this Easter with my Easter Chicks. I did this design about 8 years ago and they sold like hot chicks. They were everywhere – up the stairs, on window sills,you name it! I’ll even admit to having the odd conversation with some of them – they were definitely part of the family. 2 more children later and time constraints mean that I won’t be able to make as many this year but if you are quick you can order some of the limited edition chicks for £4.80 As usual, they are made from a Cadbury’s Creme Egg middle and come gift wrapped. don’t forget to say whether you want a Mrs Chick or a Mr Chick. In other news, my Monkey Creme Egg Creatures and Flower Basket Creme Egg Creatures were highlighted in a lovely post by Ruth of the Great British Bake Off fame. Ruth has made her own Creme Egg Chicks too – why not pop over to her place to check them out? Cake of the Week will be back very soon along with news of what I’ve been getting up to. Its been fairly manic (in a good way) – you didn’t think more »

Cheeky Monkey Creme Egg Creature – Valentine’s Gift

A cheery little fellow and a new addition to the Creme Egg Creatures range. My daughter despairs that you can see the creme egg but I quite like showing what he is made of. We have had several discussions about whether his ears should be on top of his head or at the side – I won with the side. Available giftwrapped for a cheeky Valentines gift!

Edible Valentines Gift – Cadbury’s Creme Egg

I’ve been at it again with those Cadbury’s Creme Eggs – This time making edible gifts for Valentine’s Day (or indeed for birthdays/Mother’s Day/Any old day that deserves a treat) The creme egg is firstly covered in sugar paste and then given a chocolate base. The roses are all rolled sugarpaste and the ‘leaves’ are royal icing. They come gift wrapped and tied with a satin ribbon for that bit of wow. I’m really pleased with them and hope to sell a few this spring.

I can’t wait to get on with all the ones I have in mind!
