ICED SPARKLE CHRISTMAS CAKE

A Christmas Cake with all the usual sparkle we can safely get away with at this time of the year.

It was my first visit to Cake International at the NEC Birmingham this year and I have no idea why I have never made the trip before. Fortunately, I have a very understanding husband, who made no comments regarding my purchases, only to say, did I get everything I needed for my Christmas Cakes, bless!

Back soon.

Iced Reindeer Christmas Cake

A Reindeer Christmas Cake for my two small grandchildren and their Mummy and Daddy! I know it's unusual for small children to like fruit cake, but they both really enjoy it.

A very easy cake to decorate using Christmas red icing, two sizes of reindeer cutters, a Christmas tree cutter, red glitter, small red and gold stars, a dusting of snowflake sprinkles, and two different ribbons. Some of the items were purchased on my day out to Cake International in Birmingham last month, and as you can see I used my time well!

Back soon!

A Great Day Out - Cake International NEC Birmingham November 2011

I spent a fabulous day out on Friday, courtesy of Renshaw, and thought you might like to see a few photographs of some of the wonderful cakes on display.

It was really busy, lots of smiley faces and everyone was really enjoying themselves. My purchases as usual consisted of edible glitter, cutters and even more edible glitter and I bought things I didn't even realise I needed - sshh don't tell my husband!

Thank you Hannah and Renshaw for a wonderful day.
