In contrast to the wedding cake which took a few hours to decorate, this was a very quick birthday cake and cupcakes that I decorated in 15 minutes yesterday (the fact that I had overslept had something to do with the speed!) With some green butter cream rapidly piped over the top and the left over decorations from the wedding cake, my ordinary toffee sponge was transformed into a garden! It goes to show that even if you don't have much time, you can still create something quite pretty! With the cupcakes baked in my new American pink cake wrappers and the little ladybirds from a shop in Vienna - these cupcakes are very "International!"

OMG,that is so beautiful.I can't believe it was merely" thrown" together. It would have taken me hours to achive anything approximating that ;-)
ReplyDeleteExactly what the last commenter said Hannah. Your skill never fails to astound me. These cakes are so beautifully decorated and the idea so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHope the book is going well x
The cake turned out very pretty Hannah.
ReplyDeleteGASP! Oh yes. I should whip up stuff like that all the time!!!!! HAHA! Except if I did it would look more like an explosion on a compost heap! That is a MOST beautiful cake! And toffee sponge too! My favourite. YOu see - I would have to look and look and look and then eat the lot! t.x
ReplyDeleteB e a u t i f u l !!!!! I salute you! My birthday is ..... :)
ReplyDeleteStunning. I can't believe it only took you 15 min. It would have taken me a great deal longer!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea that you have an ordinary toffee sponge - how do you make it?
ReplyDeleteLove the decorations, and really loved the wedding cake, what a special way to celebrate ....

ReplyDeleteI have been following some food blogs as I arrange for Abel and Cole products to be sent to food bloggers and I was wondering if you would be interested in trailing some free goodies.
