-
Amazing cake Wonder, and what a big smile from your DS!
-
Thanks everyone. I hadn't noticed what a great photo it is of DS, he certainly looks proud. The cake board came home with just the spine left on it so not much left over which is great, we aren'g big cake eaters and I also made our cupcakes for the kids lunches for the week so any leftovers from this would end up in the bin.
-
Wow great cake Wonder
-
You are clever to do that Wonder.
I don't think I can move just that post, only whole threads. Maybe I can copy and paste.
-
Nice cake Wonder - he looks so proud! :D
-
That's fine Cookie, I can upload just the cake photos onto the other thread when i'm home. I was just a little worried that this thread was just meant to be for comments not the actual cakes.
-
It's nice to have a cake here. ;)
-
Great job Wonder, your son will remember that for years to come.
-
This is a question from Wonder

-
Loving all the fantastic cakes!
Maddy, I adore your 'bouquet' of roses. So clever.

-
Looks great ES
-
First time I have ever seen a pool cake, love it ES.
-
I saw a lovely 7 layer cake yesterday, a rainbow cake in the true sense of the word. I told DD I wanted it for my birthday :).
-
Will she make it or buy it Cookie?
-
Thanks everyone. The boys were all impressed with the cake.
The cake was an egg free marble cake, iced with buttercream, surrounded with kit kats, with a blue jelly pool & decorated with lollies.
-
Judy I hope she makes it. I even have the recipe.

DH has a birthday in April and I am considering having a go at Adriano Zumbo's V8 cake. 8 layers if vanilla heaven. Mmmm
-
Love the look of that rainbow cake Cookie, can't wait to see your DD's version ;) ;D
Kimmy, I think I saw that V8 cake on masterchef a couple of series ago. It looked very hard to make :o
-
Yes it would be a challenge Amy. Still thinking about it. No decisions yet.
-
It would be yummy even if it was a mess :-)) ;D
-
Thanks Amy for the encouragement ;)
-
Oops, I put my foot in it there didn't I? :o :-X
-
Tenina has a recipe for that in FFS. April people are wonderful Kimmy. Perhaps your DH and I share a birthday.

The 14th. And you are wonderful regardless of your birthday cookie ;)
-
Oh you are too nice Kimmy. My brother's birthday is the 14th. Mine is a bit after that. I have to start thinking about a gift so that I can keep reminding my DH. Last year I received my ipad which has been wonderful.
-
Maybe we are the same cookie... ;D
-
OMG Karen. Just seen the Lego man cake and it is awesome. One very talented friend you have. The cupcakes look fantastic too. Wishing Connor a happy 6th birthday xox

Happy Birthday to Connor!!! :-*

Wonder, you and DD should go into business together. That is a fantastic cake. You are very clever.
-
Those cakes are amazing. The Lego cake even has the little bumps on. Such clever people.
-
Amazing cake Wonder, well done to you and DD. I bet DD's BF was impressed ;D
-
Great cakes Karen & Wonder. Karen sometimes it's easier to let someone else do their thing, lucky you having such a talented friend. I bet Connor loved all his cakes, he sure got stuck into them when we were there.
-
Amazing cakes Karen and Wonder :o

It's Louis first birthday tomorrow,27th May (where has that year gone :o) and my daughter asked me to make him a cake.
Not the greatest creation compared to some of you talented ladies but I had fun making it.I'll have plenty of years ahead of me to practice on more cakes, as I reckon it will be my job from now on :D :D

Not a celebration cake but one for a party. Compared to some on here it is very plain.
Martha Stewart's yellow celebration cake recipe made in kenwood mixer. A sponge mix with added milk. Baked in two tins and split in half.
Cream cheese frosting. Cake frozen for ease of handling and assembled while frozen. Fridged overnight to harden icing.
4 layers of cake, two with fresh cut strawbs and frosting, centre one with strawb jam and frosting.

Ummm. excuse me! I don't think so, DJ!! If it's not a celebration cake, it sure looks like a cause for a celebration!! It looks fabulous!! Thanks for the tips on the freezing/refigeration etc. . . . have made a note of that!! (I'm a rank amateur in the cake making dept - come to think of it, in a lot of other depts. too!! ;D ;D)
-
I would love a piece of that. It looks delicious.

So would I Cookie.
Gorgeous cake DJ. 8)

Hardly plain DJ. ???
It looks absolutely fabulous. Whoops, I'm starting to dribble. :D
-
Lovely cake DJ, how about a slice?
-
Lovely DJ. I would love a slice too please.
-
yum a slice 4 me 2 thanks
-
Thanks all, it was a big hit, we had it at the end of the races with a welcome cup of tea.
There were only two slices left and we have them away as couldn't bring home on the train :D
It lasted fine too and I'd made a cool box out of foil in a cardboard box and chilly packs as it was a sunny day and made from cream cheese.
Next time I'd put sliced strawbs on all 3 inside layers. The jam and frosting layer sort of disappeared.
I didn't use my usual non TMX sponge as I needed a strong sponge to cope with four layers and fresh strawbs.
It's so good when an idea works.
-
Yummy, makes me hungry..
-
Yum DJ :)
-
Gorgeous cake, dj!! Drooling.....
-
Apart from buying from a person who makes cakes, does anyone know where you can buy cheap cardboard cake boxes (in different sizes). And approx cost?
-
CP google just came up with heaps, and wholesale too.
-
Thanks obbie ill have a look. I won't need a huge quantity as its just for when you need to take a dessert etc somewhere and don't want to worry about having to remember to bring the plastic container home ( such a hassle)
-
Don't I know it CP, still trying to get DH to remember my best tin from his new work place, trouble is he's only there occasionally. Hope he remembers before we move! :D
-
Karen, your DH's cake is amazing. Wish him happy birthday from me.
-
And a happy birthday from me too Karen. Great cake xox
-
I love that cake Karen and can't wait to show DH tomorrow - he has his own little tank corner in our lounge, he just loves them.
Was yours a surprise for your DH?
-
Fabulous cake. A very happy birthday to DH.

Great cake bonsai, very clever.
-
Wonderful cake....is it a fave book?
-
No idea, got the photo from their Facebook page as they do these cakes on commission - probably for a friend/relatives birthday. DD19 says they can't face eating the cake as they are " so over" cake and icing by the time they've finished the project. They have done some 3D models as well, most recently a character from Pokemon, but prefer flatter projects. I'll have to post a photo of the cake they put together for DD's 18th birthday. - an alien v zombies theme. So much fondant!!
-
Karen, what a great cake for a little boy, I bet they had plenty of fun. ;D
Marie
-
Karen, your construction site cake is wonderful!! Absolutely perfect for your DS!! I'll bet they had a ball driving through all that soft "mud"!!! Just perfect!!! ;D
-
Great cake Karen, hope the birthday boy had a lovely day - snow today must have made it extra special for him as well.
-
What a lovely cake Karen - showed DH who's a truckie and did lots of road works in his younger days and he said "don't kids these days just have the most awesome birthday cakes" :D
-
Thanks for your kind comments everyone ;D The cake was really easy, once I had found the decoration set on ebay.
Judy - he had the best day today. Snow in the morning, party in the afternoon with diggers and fudge and his little friends here to play with him. Gorgeous to watch.
And tonight we get leftovers ;D ;D
-
Couldn't have had a better day, Karen! :)
-
Lovely cake Karen.

Wow, Johnro! What a great idea! What kind of cake did you make? I'll bet the children were over the moon!! :D

Great cake Robyn, the height of the individual cakes alone is amazing let alone the decoration. I want to know which recipe you used too ;D
