Mickey Clubhouse Cake

The sun came out again today - just in time for Zakariyya's 1st birthday. His mum had booked a lovely local hall and had a Disney balloon arch to go over the cake table (which was a 2 tier vanilla sponge filled with jam and buttercream and then covered with marzipan and sugarpaste... character figures provided by the customer) and filled the room with play mats, toddler toys, etc. She certainly went all-out to make this a really special day!

Going Back To My Roots....

When I first started seriously thinking about cakes, I thought I would do children's cake decorating parties. However, I quickly discovered that I was getting more and more 'proper' cake orders and very few of the parties... so I had a quick re-think and decided that, actually, cake making was the choice for me.

However, it was my niece's 8th birthday 2 weeks ago and she REALLY wanted a cake decorating party... so out came the aprons, rolling pins and cutters and a cake decorating party she had!

The girls all had a wonderful time and if I'm honest, some of their creations FAR exceeded my expectations! Perhaps I have some assistants-in-training for the future?
