The Naughty Cat Cake!
Mark's 42nd Birthday Cake
I wanted to have a go at a gravity cake! This took a lot of chocolate to decorate - 2 boxes of Cadbury's fingers, 1 tub Betty Crocket chocolate fudge icing, 1 bag of Maltesers 121g and 1 bag of Maltesers 230g. It was constructed with a knitting needle which was inserted through a straw. To hold the empty bag of Maltesers the bendy part of the straw had a wooden skewer inserted in it. It was all then wrapped in tin foil to make it food safe and inserted into the cake. The cake was a marble cake.

Roman's 8th Birthday LEGO Cake
This was the cake I made for Roman's 8th Birthday. The Lego "Happy Birthday" topper was ordered from e-bay as the theme of his birthday this year was Lego Avengers. The background to the topper is the same as Roman's blog wallpaper! I also ordered a silicone mould from e-bay to mould sugar paste icing - the red and blue icing I already had in the cupboard and I coloured the green and yellow icing myself using my Wilton Icing Colours (really excellent product, would recommend).
Anais' 12th Birthday Cake
This was Anais' 12 birthday cake. The inside was also coloured pink. I made hundreds of icing flowers and then stuck them together and put an edible sugar pearl in the centre of each one. They were then dusted with edible pink glitter.

Mark's 40th birthday cake

I did a cake decorating course earlier this year (2013) and learned how to make sugar paste roses, this was my first attempt at making them at home and I am quite pleased with how they turned out. They were dusted with edible glitter.
