I love this wedding cake and everything about the process of making it. A friend of mine, Christine contacted me earlier in the year to say she was getting married and would I make her cake. Her only requests were sponge cake and red ...
Tulip and Lily Wedding Cake
Its been a while but Cake of the Week is back. I delivered this the morning that we were going on holiday but was strangely not stressed at all making it. I had the pleasure of a really relaxed bride who genuinely wasn't too concerned ...
Our Olympic Adventure – London 2012
Well, we are back! We have had amazing time (if you ignore the force 8 gale on the ferry on the way back). We may have been in a different country but we still got caught up in the excitement of the Olympics like everyone else. You may ...
The Costellos Go Surfing – The Gallery – Sport

Donkey Christening Cake
Another celebration in the Costello family this weekend. Our nephew, Sonny Patrick John was baptised yesterday and I am delighted to have been chosen as his Godmother. Little Sonny is 6 months old now and REALLY cute - Tara adores him ...

Picnic Spicy Herby Potatoes
I've never been a massive fan of the sandwich - I find that the kids get bored so quickly with various flavour (especially as they take packed lunches to school too), the bread or wraps so soggy so soon and don't get me started on sandy ...
