Celebration Cakes

My Friend's little boy Jo is obsessed with lego, I counted 9 new sets that he had for his birthday this week which should keep both him and his Mum busy for a while! We were all invited to his superhero adventure party which was lots of fun and very noisy, Jo loved his cake and added a few of his super hero friends for good measure.

I just baked 2 x 20cm square sponge cakes and cut them both in half and then one of the halves in half again. I sandwiched the cakes with butter icing and raspberry jam and covered them in regal ice, I used a 4cm round cutter for the circles. I measured and marked out the board and then used rolled out regal ice for the lego effect. my 6 year old son Robby cut out all of the circles. I would recommend making this cake as it is simple but effective.

I made this wedding cake for my lovely friends Nick and Fay, their reception was held at the Beach House on Mudeford spit amongst all of the beach huts.

The cakes were a mix of chocolate and vanilla sponge and I used soft brown sugar stuck on using a layer of butter cream and some softened raspberry seedless jam to get the sand effect.

This was last years school raffle prize, a round cake with a rolled sugar paste wrapped and draped to make it look like Santa's sack.

This 40th birthday cake for my husbands cousin was a replica (kind of) of his Porsche. I used a basic car tin with vanilla sponge and then carved it to make it look like this!
