Why did no-one tell me about the joys of plastic figures earlier? I spent years of my life that I will never get back making teeny sugar figures and now I discover how brilliant pre bought figurines are. When I was asked to make a Scooby ...

Ice Age Cake
I've got a confession - I've never seen Ice Age. In fact, there's tons of children's films I have never watched. I've never seen Shrek either but I can more or less repeat the script word for word thanks to my girls watching it on the iPad ...
Numberjack 4 Cake
A bold coloured cake can either be a complete success or a complete disaster in my experience. I had major doubts about this cake before I made it. The shade of blue and the shape of the 4 had to be spot on to do the number 4 ...
Harley Davidson/JCB Cake – Cake of the Week
Another crazily busy week but am so much chirpier than last week's Cake of the Week post. A lot of smaller cakes this week (including some Jubilee cupcakes that I forgot to take pictures of! Gasp!) It seemed that each of the cakes from ...
Raa Raa The Noisy Lion Cake – Cake of the Week
A totally new cake for me this week (Yay!) and the reason that Cake of the Week is running slightly late - Oops, we were out partying and then out with friends last night (Yep, we have some!) Anyway, on with the cakes - I have to admit ...
In The Night Garden Cake
Of all the characters, I make, Upsy Daisy has got to be one of my least favourites. There's so much that can go wrong with her (her spikes can break if you just look at them funny) and there's tons of detail that takes forever. Every time I ...
Camel Cake – Cake of the Week
A much less stressful week for cakes this week so why on earth was I so last minute finishing this camel cake? I was due to deliver it on Friday at 2pm and at 1.20PM I'm still putting the last minute touches on it. I always have been better ...
Disney Castle Cake with Mickey and Minnie
I wasn't going to post about this Disney Castle Cake. It was a really difficult cake to make - not just because it was massive and Disney characters are really hard to get right but because of what the cake meant. I got asked to make this ...
Very Hungry Caterpillar Cake
There was no choice to be made about what would be Cake of the Week this week - Baby T is One and this is her cake. A Very Hungry Caterpillar cake. It is an absolute miracle that there is any semblance of a cake as this week has been so ...
Simple Princess Castle Cake
Ooh I love a girly cake. My brief was to fit in with a Princess Party. I wanted to put my own stamp on it and not just make a princess but somewhere for her to live obviously! It was REALLY windy around here yesterday so I only added the ...
