Enough of the rain already!

Monday, June 11, 2012
Apologies to all of my readers from more exotic climes for the following grumble, but here in the UK we are under the weather...mostly rain clouds. Ironically we are also living with a hose pipe ban because we are suffering a 'drought'. It hasn't stopped raining for weeks! And it has been raining constantly, for over twenty-four hours!
Anyway to cheer myself up I thought I would post some pictures of my holiday in Tunisia, only a few weeks ago..but oh how those weeks have flown.










Kerrang 2012

Friday, June 8, 2012
 I was very excited to be involved in a dessert table for the Kerrang! awards again. (You can see last years here).  This year there was a Royal theme, with a medieval banquet vibe. As I only had one free day to make goodies we had to get lots of other talented cake makers involved. I only made the fish cookies, but was the art director and food stylist.
The chicken feet cake pops are from Lou Lou P's Delights.
The Conjurer's Kitchen made cake filled green eggs, marzipan fingers, arrow pierced hearts, and a magnificent roasted swan cake.
Cake for Breakfast made chocolate slugs and a chocolate frog complete with frog spawn.
The chrystalised flowers were from Eat My Flowers. I had asked especially for not perfect flowers as it was Kerrang, so I would like to point out they are normally perfectly beautiful.













Shabby chic wedding cake

Thursday, June 7, 2012













































This is last weekend's wedding cake. It was based on fabric that the bride used for bunting and jam jar covers.



















 I really enjoyed painting this design as it took me back to my textile designing years.
