[proud] emoticon - look at the cake I made...

[mamama]

Please!

I've never decorated a cake before so the whole thing was very stressful, but I think it turned out ok.

It should be in my profile.

Farmyard on top, Marslady's choc cake inside. Yummy.

Very impressive. Well done.

[mamama]

And should have said, big thank you to Mars for the recipe and to all the people who helped me find images when I was stuck! Thank you all.

[bewilderbeast]

that's fantastic

[flowertot]

How do you get on profile to see it?

[mamama]

Thank you! To look at the profile, I think you click on the person's name. Or the little tag at the top right of their post.

The icing was just tubs of the fluffy white stuff - I think Duncan Hines - whatever they had in Safeways. I was going to make it myself, but I gave it in the end!

Baseballs will be fab. My friend said she made baseball cupcakes for her son's birthday but she couldn't get a good orange colour - it was more peachy but as they were 2 year olds, they didn't notice. I'm not sure how you make a good orange colour but I want to see pics when you've done them, Califrau!

[mamama]

Oh, and the barn (and animals) were from Target

[UCM]

It's wonderful

[oooggs]

very impressive

[mamama]

Sounds fab, Califrau - you will post pictures, won't you?!

[BreeVanDerCamp]

Impressive.

[mamama]

[Hulababy]

That's fab. Well done!

You should come over and join in our village shows, recipes I think. The one with 2000 messages!

[smoggie]

v impressed!
Well done

[janeite]

It's great. Well done you!

[mamama]

You know, I didn't think I was ready for a village show, but I think now I might just be!

And, I just arranged some flowers so all that is left is joining the WI and making some jam and I'll be at the show.

Make way for mamama!

[1dilemma]

yum yum

[mamama]

Shameless bump for the overseas crowd

[colinandcaitlinsmommy]

I'm impressed. I do a lot of baking, but never, ever venture into decorating.

[mamama]

lol CACM - I'm usually the same way. The problem with decorating is that everyone can see if you make a cock-up!
