[User543212345]

I finished ours today - a bit early but we're having a party this weekend and it won't get eaten otherwise. Has anyone else done theirs yet?

[TheBadgersMadeMeDoIt]

I gave 5yr old DD a silver icing pen and some star shaped cookie cutters and let her get on with it.

[DrowningInPoop]

Great cakes ladies!


No one here likes Christmas cake so I will be doing a chocolate Maltesers cake (looks like a Christmas pud) and for DH a creme pat tart

[User543212345]

Wow badgers your dd is very creative!

Looks like it's just us being organised though

[Backingvocals]

oooh, lovely. I haven't made a cake but really want to see what you've all done. I could show you the packet of shop-bought mince pies but that's not really in the spirit, is it?

[Izzy82]

These are my offerings. One for my mum and one for my Nan

[Backingvocals]

Love those. DS was looking over my shoulder and was v impressed. He's wondering why we havent got one...

[Awoof]

I'm icing mine tomorrow so will be sure to come back. Dr has asked for a frozen else cake so breaking from tradition this year

[dementedma]

Icing mine today....

[Welliesandwings]

This is ours

[KingJoffreysRestingCuntface]

I don't have a cake to share so here are some chicks warming themselves against a mug.

You're welcome.

[Trumpton]

This is the one my DD did in honour of all the starry nights she has seen since the baby was born.

[Trumpton]

And to carry the theme through our sunroom where we will have Christmas dinner.

[WiltingTulip]

They're all lovely- are they fruit cakes or regular cakes?

[Chottie]

Wow! what a lot of beautiful cakes.

DS will be decorating our cake today. It is a traditional Christmas cake with royal icing. The decorations on the top will be FC and a reindeer wearing shades and riding a jet ski, a Christmas tree and a red post box with a snowy top and a robin on it.

[User543212345]

Ours is a fruitcake Wilting - I never thought I liked them as my parents make a really dark heavy one but mines quite light and quite moreish.

[CoffeeMad18]

Here is mine.

[InTheDessert]

Mine is going to be plain white fondant iced. I tried to use the scraps to make a tree from stacked stars. It looked great (by my standards) when first combined, but over the past 2 days has melted and splodged into something I think is best for the bin

[Chottie]

Even more beautiful cakes! DS is icing ours as I type!

[flapjackfairy]

I went for traditional snow scene reminiscent of my childhood!!

[rhuhbarb4]

welliesandwings that is lovely I am absolutely obsessed by gingerbread men and your cake is making me so jealous.

[3penguins]

They are all lovely, but I like kingjoffreys irrelevant chick photo best.

[YourFace]

Mine. Fruitcake, laced with brandy, topped with marzipan and brandy buttercream.

[dmell13]

Does this count? My Christmas wreath cupcakes

[flapjackfairy]

[ImYourMama]
