Birthday Cake Photos


As promised in a recent blog, here are photos of David with his birthday cake. The candles spell Happy Birthday, and he blew them all out. YOu can see Katie and her mum Jo in the background helping. He loved the Buzz & Woody picture on top.


It was a lovely moist carrot/hummingbird cake, without the walnuts. I put fresh grated nutmeg in this one and it really made a difference. I had made a couple of practice cakes (always a good move) and this was the best of them - a nice fairly flat top for the icing picture. It was going to be covered in cream cheese frosting ,but the icing picture needed a flat slightly damp surface for best results, so I changed it to cinnamon butter icing, and as you can see it worked splendidly.


What's more, David, Dad & I really like the cake.
