Back in January, it was my husband's 50th birthday. We celebrated with a lovely meal with friends. Mr Pat-a-Cake said he didn't want a cake - didn't want me to go to any more trouble, seeing as I was already making dinner for 10 people. But how could I not? Now, when we go out, he will always choose a cheese board over a dessert. He LOVES cheese! So it was an obvious choice for me. I decorated the cake board to look like a wooden board and then I baked 3 small cakes and decorated them to look like cheese - the Camembert was champagne & strawberry; the Edam was chocolate-orange; and the Swiss cheese was lemon. I finished it off with some sugar grapes! What was fun was how we passed the cake around after dinner and people were actually taking a little bit of each - like one would with cheese!
Happy birthday to my darling husband.
