#tbt: Bean's Beach Fun Birthday Cake

Throw back Thursday: taking a look at stuff I've made in the past.

I made my sandpit loving boy and beach cake for his 2nd birthday. 
The sand is made out of digestive biscuits, the shells are white chocolate set in shell shaped moulds and the tools are marzipan I believe.
Awww, can you tell the number two has been used before? Bless the second born, for they shall have hand-me-downs ;)

#tbt: Hobbit Hole (Bag End) Cake

Throw back Thursday: taking a look at stuff I've made in the past.

Exactly six years ago (it was actually his birthday yesterday), I made my fellow Hobbit loving Dad a Bag End cake. It didn't quite turn out the way I wanted but I was pleased regardless. Mum put some amazing sparkler candles on it and told us all it was Gandalf's fireworks <3

 I can never get the red sauce quite right, but for a first attempt, this was amazing.

#tbt: Ed's 3rd Birthday Cake

Throw back Thursday: taking a look at stuff I've made in the past.

You've probably guessed, but Ed had a pirate birthday.
The metal work is just marzipan. Looking at it now, I should have either coloured it or painted it, but hey ho, it was tasty and he loved it. That is all that matters after all.

#tbt: Mum's Rose Birthday Cake

Throw back Thursday: taking a look at stuff I've made in the past.

Another marzipan creation (because we love it), this one was for my Mum's birthday and was my firts attempt at freehand lacework (if that's the right name) with dribbley chocolate.

#tbt: Ed's First Birthday Cake

Throw back Thursday: taking a look at stuff I've made in the past.

The picture quality is terrible, but it's all I have.
This was Ed's first birthday cake. The stars are made from marzipan dipped in white chocolate and by golly, I did not make enough of them...

Tempting Tuesday: Pizza Cake

Tempting Tuesday: trying not to kill my family with my experimental cooking.

 

Bean turned 7 on Sunday, so we had a pizza party on Saturday.

Hence the pizza themed cake. When I told him I was making a pizza cake he was horrified, especially when he found the cheese grater in the wash.

My obvious issue with this was that I couldn't get the 'pasatta' butter icing to go tomato red, despite using an entire bottle of food colouring.

I poured it on a large single layer of basic sponge cake.

Grated marzipan and a sprinkling of sweets, and ta-daaaa pizza cake.
