Birthday Cake

I made a cake for my husbands birthday, he was pleased with it and so was I. It was really easy to make the most time consuming part was colouring the fondant. There is a fairly new book out called Party Cakes for Kiwi Kids by Annette Hislop and Linda Ross the design came from this and I just adapted it to suit, making the figures adult instead of kids............its a really good book and inexpensive for those starting out in cake decorating.......

Diabetic

Found out I was diabetic about a month ago in slightly dramatic fashion, ended up in Hospital am now on insulin etc, so until I get my head around it there will be no more goodies produced by me, all I have made in a month is a banana cake for the family I have just lost the desire to bake as I can't enjoy it. I know I could still produce stuff but its not the same. I've lost 10kgs so thats the plus!!!!, when I get back into this blog they style of it will probably change.........untill then.................Jan
