So Abi ended up having 4 cakes for her FIRST birthday...
Spoilt brat! I know!
No! Not really! Just lots and lots of reason to celebrate!
If you are after a super easy and scrumptious cake recipe, then give this one a go! Megan made Abi's Sydney cake from it and I made my lady bug from it too!

| Abi's cake we had in Sydney for celebrations with friends. Made by my super awesome friend Megan. (If you are in Sydney and after a cake let me know! I'd be happy to pass on her details. - This is a hobby!) She also made my husbands birthday cake! I blogged about it already HERE |
 |
| Red velvet cupcakes for daycare... I'm going to admit it here and here ONLY... (That's WhiteWings packet cakes...) & they were really really nice! |
 |
| Rainbow cake! Made my Aunty Emma! Good old Womens Weekly recipe! And YUMMMMMMY! |
 |
| The Saturday before Abi's party my sister (Aunty Emma) sent me a text to see how the cake was going... I sent her a piccy of what I think was the prefect colour PINK icing! |
 |
| cakes molded together with ganache! I'd made them a week earlier and froze them. I don't trust our oven. It's seriously crap so headed to my sisters and baked them in her Miele oven... |
 |
| Couldn't find the electric knife... So had to shape with normal knives... I ended up using a bread knife! |
 |
| Happy Birthday platter borrowed from my sister, the 'dome' iced! and home made freckles added! |
 |
| The head was a red velvet cupcake. eyes pink 'smarties' and pink pipe cleaners to make up he rest. |
 |
| Side view. Eyes should have been moved down a little I think. |
 |
| End result. Already posted. I'm very proud! |
They're all lovely. As many cakes as possible is the best way to go, you can't spoil anyone too much when celebrating birthday.
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% with Lila. You did an amazing job Sammie as did your sister and friend (sometimes packet mix is a Girl's best friend).
ReplyDeleteSo much yummie goodness. The cakes are all lovely Sammie. Abi is such a lucky lil sweetheart!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou know the kids of mine would be lucky if I bought them a cupcake. Lol I'm such a horrible mum lol....
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what icing you used for your ladybug cake? I am hoping to make a chocolate mud cake for my daughter's first birthday this weekend and not sure if buttercream would be the best icing to use
jade1234 it's just buttercream! I made it really stiff. iced it the day before the party too and it held up beautifully
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! :)
