Muppets wedding cake


What a wonderful idea for a wedding cake, Rowlf from the Muppets playing the Piano.

This cake was wonderful to sculpt and I particularly enjoyed sculpting the piano. The cake was delivered to The Berkeley Hotel in Mayfair, I wonder if they have ever received a wedding cake quite like this one!

Kerrang! Music Awards 2011

Finally I can blab about my top secret job! I was making cupcakes for the Kerrang! Music Awards 2011 this week. VERY exciting and big thank you to Miss Cakehead who master minded the whole thing, click on her name to see the carnage from the Awards on her blog. The audience were handed the yummy cupcakes whilst sat at their tables.

Who knows, Alice Cooper may have eaten one of my cakes... that is the dream.

Here are the cupcakes, miniature versions of the actual awards given out this year.



If you want to see the 'other' cupcakes I made for the Awards then check out The Butcher of Caker Street blog - please please do not look at this if you are easily offended, the cakes are rude and lude...

Ben Ten meets the Humungousaur...

Which is better, a Ben Ten cake or a Humungousaur cake? We couldn't decide so there was only one thing left to do...

Bring out the Ben Ten humungousaur cake.
If you're thinking 'Who?' 'What?' then you clearly don't have kids.

First there was Ben Ten

Then there was the Humungousaur...


It went down a treat...

Bring on 2011

Happy New Year everyone. I had a surprisingly good one hosting a party round at ours, playing games and being silly. 'The Chocolate Game' and 'Crappers' are a must to bring in the new year...

So I'm back and raring to go. It was so crazy over the holidays I totally forgot to upload a giant cake I made so here's a flash back to before Christmas!

Fresh zesty lemon sponge, enormous amounts of cake, and for the first time... Rice crispie treats!
I used the treats to make the presents and the high top trainers... they took forever but it was worth all the effort.


The birthday boy really loved the cake so I went home happy.


Stay tuned for some more cakes! Newsletter goes out Monday so if you haven't signed up click here and I'll be sending one your way.
