Here we go !!!!

OK my first post ! Since my success with the Mickey cake for Robyn's birthday I've been bitten by the baking bug. It's Sarah's birthday today/tomorrow and I'm going to bake her cake myself. I got the Wilton Icing Colouring set sent over from the US and can't wait to try out all the different colours for icing.


Only thing is why oh why do I do this to myself - it was 4am when I was icing the Mickey Mouse cake the morning of the party and now I'm sitting here at half two in the morning and I have no idea of what I'm making Sarah ! She's quite picky so no fancy flavours just vanilla I think with a buttercream and jam filling. I'm going to cover it with some fondant icing but I am trying to think of a design and colours. Suppose I'm going to wing it ! I find that sometimes I work best under pressure maybe living in a house with a 9 month old, preschooler, primary schooler and secondary schooler is teaching me something ! 


Right so, I'm off to my leaba and maybe I will dream up some inspiration - watch this space and hopefully I can create a masterpiece to show you tomorrow.
