It's my daughter's first birthday next week so I'm going to make her a cake in the shape of her initial and ice it and generally be a bit Jane Asher-ish.
I wanted to do a chocolate cake but I'm swayed by the Nigella recipe from Domestic Goddess as it sounds the right amount of solidity for an iced cake. Wondering if anyone had made it or if I could add cocoa to make it chocolatey?
Or any other ideas? Suggestions on how total klutzes can become adept at icing also v welcome.

Anyone tried Nigella's Buttermilk Birthday Cake - or have another birthday cake recommendation?
