I have made my cakes, and attempted to decorate a couple but have a limited colour palette, may need to go out AGAIN and get some more stuff.

I'm getting excited again. I will be commencing warm up stretching and mental imagary again tonight.

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 19:15

So will you be prematurely uploading again LL?

Or holding back to keep the competition guessing??

Good, I want to see what the competition is like :D

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 19:51

Ooooooooooooh Ladies, a cake threads gone nasty (LDC one). It was only a matter of time. Let us all stir our stumps and await some horrid person to dare and come and slag off our cup cakes.

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 19:53

cor look at the completed rosette set.

[very very impressed emoticon]LL

FrannyandZooey · 22/06/2007 19:54

Will people laugh and point if they are not symmetrical and all that? Mine are full of love but not usually very aesthetic

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 19:55

There was an award of pity at the Victoria Sponge comp F&Z.

FrannyandZooey · 22/06/2007 20:08

I don't need your pity

just because my cupcakes are of different stature and consistency to other cupcakes

tigi · 22/06/2007 20:14

Those rosettes are gorgeous! Must have taken you ages!

Ooooh LL, very pretty! Nice cake-song linkage there. (maybe a few more than 6 there though....... They look very edible!

F&Z. Aplogies. Of course there will be no pity. Your asymetrical cakes will stand strong and proud and they will be welcomed.
All cakes ar equal here.

(Your kitchen though is another matter. If you happen to accidently get any of your kitchen appliances, tiles or flooring into shot, prepare for it to be commented upon and ridiculed as necessary).

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 21:14

apologies. why cannot I spell that word properly?

MrsFish · 22/06/2007 21:16

I'm going to make sure I show off my kitchen

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 21:20

LL...more cake love here (acting as an antidote to MN nastiness).

Did you decorate all those one handed (with DS being held by your other arm)? One handed cake decorating earns bonus points.

UCM · 22/06/2007 21:24

Awww LL don't get hooked in by it. I had death threats last night and I am still here Now, theme is 'in the garden' isn't it

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 21:31

Cake of Tranquility for LL

UCM · 22/06/2007 21:33

LL, you said a maximum of 6, now I am not nagging, but............

UCM · 22/06/2007 21:34

Blimey Slubs is that one of yours, I may have to call in sick for this one

Slubberdegullion · 22/06/2007 21:42

naaaaaaaaaah, I am still trying to work out how to upload piccies onto the profiles. Then you'll see some I made earlier

Thought a cake Budda would calm you further LL but actually it looks like a turd in tupperware

I think you should send a rosette to yourself anyway, for being very good at making rosettes.
