Would I be mad to even attempt it? Should I just buy the tesco one? Anyone got any thoughts?

No but I want to! Do you have a design?

If you made one it would be FAR nicer. I made a cake with the Chelsea Football Club badge on it this year (for his 7th) and I surprised myself how good it looked! I didn't make the cake though - I cheated and bought some ready made chocolate ones from Tesco and joined them together - A good way to cheat and it tasted great too!!

A friend of mine bought the set of Garden figures and then decorated a sponge in green and made flowers etc - it looked lovey and her DD got to keep the toys.

Squiffy, that's an inspired idea. Don't know why I didn't think of that! Tell me more about the green cake and flowers etc please.

If my memory serves me correctly it was just a round sponge, iced green with a ribbon around it. She then made some icing flowers, arranged the figures and iced on her name.

I've made something similar for dds 2nd - was fifi inspired but could be upsy.

made maderia cake rather than victoria sponge - slightly harder and easier to ice. covered in green roll out icing. bought chocolate daisies from local posh choc shop and took a picture of fifi to the local cake shop and they made a replica of fifi out of marzipan for the top.

sure I linked to it many moons ago, will go and find.
