Hello. I'm Mouse and have some weight to lose. The amount changes all the time but hey! We're all like that aren't we?

No rules. No clique. Just ladies trying to keep the winter bulk at bay!

Come meet the rest of the LIGHTer ladies, they're lovely.

Creme fraiche or double cream? For icing a chocolate cake?

Double - Seriously!?!

Brian - a lot of hospitals and doctors won't take soft toys cos of germs etc. As I said before, but Double chose to ignore, they can't be wiped clean.

Well, BCH and Shrewsbury children's ward won't. Same with our GP and dentist. Worht checking though. Local playgroup/SureStart scheme?

School fair is a good idea? They can sell them and make money for the school? Christmas fair?

You have talking PJs Double? Neat!

Hey Mittz - can one of you please answer my creme or cream question!!!!!

If it for decorating the cake then Creme Freche, but if the cake is decorated and going to be eaten with a spoon then drowning in Double Cream is the way to go, especially if afore said cake is slightly warm.

However making Apple Pie is even more preferable..

There isn't much I wouldn't do for a nicely made Apple Pie....

Er, surely icing is just butter and icing sugar? Where does the cream come into it?

I want to sleeeeeep.

I. Hate. Stuffed. Toys.

I apologise profusely to anyone on this thread that is drawn to them but I fantasize about lining them up on a wall at a military base and unloading a huge amount of my angst of the furry little feckers with a big loud gun.

I have ishooes!

Thank you Double. I love you really and knew you weren't ignoring me.

I just wanted you to post to me, that's all.

Brian, if you send me those toys, I will give them to the village school for the fair. BUT it will cost an arm and a leg to post them so best not eh?

Oh blimey there is confectioners cream an' alsorts, I was a moderately competent sweet chef thingy many moons ago... can't make packet custard now.

Speaking of which, I have a tin of custard, I could eat that without feeling like my throat is being shredded.

you lot are really weird.

i thought iced cakes were icing sugar and water too bitter.

whats the harder crunchier but soft in middle icing made of, is it buttercream icing? whats in that then?

Burtter and icing sugar. Whipped cream and jam I would make an exception for, but otherwise just butter and icing sugar.

It's a special kind of icing for a recipe that MrM is making and it said creme fraiche or double creme, not me.

I'm with you lot, butter n sugar. Simples!

Double - you X Factoring or SCD later or do you have a life?

Cream cheese icing is ok.

Mmmm carrot cake topping

In fact a bowl of ice-cream, custard and proper whipped cream - not the stuff out of the can muck...

Because Mouse wants to commit some kind of icing travesty with creme fraiche.

Confiscate it and I shall endeavour to commit some other misdemeanor with it..

NOT ME!!! HIM!!!! THE DH!!!! I'm having profita roles. YUM!!!
