As much as I like baking pretty cakes, having a few nephews necessitates occasional "boys" cakes. Sadly they are not into flowers and edible glitter - but rather football, monsters, space travel etc. Here are a few of their recent cakes!
I don't really do cake decoration any more (although I had my birthday cake moments, courtesy of the Australian Women's Weekly book), but these - plus others, earlier and girlier - are inspirational, and make me think I should get decorating. Great stuff!

They look FABULOUS! I bet they didn't want to eat them (for about two minutes!)
ReplyDeleteWho needs to be a boy to prefer those?! I'd love that pirate ship and treasure island myself. :D
ReplyDeleteFreddie has made very specific birthday cake requests over the years. A map of the world was one.....
ReplyDeleteGreat looking cakes! Very masculine! I can't imagine any child actually not being happy with one of those! I bet they tasted great as well!
