The mix tasted AMAZING! So sweet and fruity, and although the colour was a bit dodgy they came out of the oven looking great. I decorated them with whipped cream and fresh strawberries

Fathers Day Adventures
Normally I don't try a new recipe for the first time if my cupcakes are for someone else, but as I ran out of time to practise I decided to make Strawberries and Cream Cupcakes for the first time for my dad's Fathers Day present.

Paid Adventures #3 - Cupcakes
My friend who I made the Monsters Inc cake for really liked it, and asked me to make some cupcakes for her other son's birthday!
They were plain sponge, with vanilla buttercream and multi-coloured sprinkles
Adventures in Novelty Baking #2 - Casino Cake
For my fiance's birthday, I decided to make him a casino cake as he loves playing poker.
I made a large circle cake, which I iced white and then decorated around the edge with red and black icing balls. I then made 2 small square cakes which I iced white and decorated with circles of black icing so they looked like dice. I put those on top of the cake, and used cookie cutters to cut a diamond and a heart out of red icing and a club and a spade out of black icing. I used poker chips and playing cards to finish off the cake.
