The Christmas cake is eaten and tasted great even if I do say so myself. Sense of pride gleaming in my eyes.
Today my wife Lel asked me to make a Birthday Cake for one of our friends as she did not get one for her birthday which lands on Christmas day. As I know the person who the cake is for, which makes life a little easier. I know she likes cows and even takes a cow soft toy with her on holidays. This cow is placed in the scenic photos she takes. Sweet =].
I had a great time with this cake. The cake itself is a Victoria Sponge Cake with a Vanilla Buttercream filling. All of which I made myself. I kept some of the Buttercream to spread thinly all over the top and sides of the cake. I then rolled out some bought pink Regalice and placed it over the cake. After that I made the cow which took me a little while because I kept coming up with little ideas, like the daisies and ladybirds.
After the cow was finally finished (and all the daises and ladybirds were placed), I put him in the middle of the cake. I then used a garlic press and some green Regalice to make the grass clumps. After I had finished I look at my first fully homemade cake. I smiled at the result and felt quite proud of myself =] =] =].
Giant bugs and flowers or a mini cow? |
