Eliza's birthday cake. |
Been a busy few days at the Bakehouse. I started with Eliza's 2nd Birthday cake - all pink, girly and pretty. Who can resist pink birthday cake?!! It's a flavourful vanilla sponge underneath the gooey pinkness. Simple yet tasty. A perfect combination if you ask me.
I followed this with, what I believe to be possibly one of the best after dinner birthday cakes, a chocolate mint cake. Made to feed a crowd for a 40th Birthday. Suitably chocolatey with a subtle minty buttercream - who can beat that?!

And this morning's fun and games has been cupcakes. Made all the more interesting with the addition of a powercut!!! Fun! Fun! Fun! I've done very chocolatey fudge ones decorated with lovely swirls of fudgy icing and tiny chocolate stars. And, my current cupcake preference, the coconut & lime taste of tropical heaven. Made all the sweeter as the sleet batters against the windows and the temperature plummets again. Thought it was Spring!? It's a lovely coconuty light sponge with a swoosh of citrusy lime buttercream speckled with tiny flakes of lime zest. Yummy!
I've planned well and have a few extras left over to enjoy with friends, wine and pizza tonight!! Has to be a wee perk to the job you know!
