Autumn cake

As we draw nearer to winter and have to close the doors of summer, we get the stunning colours of Autumn and I love the amazing combination of leaves and stalks that the beautiful season brings! Therefore, I loved the chance to be let loose on my paint and go mental with colour! I certainly love this type of cake!

Tottenham Hotspur cake

What a tough cake this was. I can certainly say that making scarves is not my favourite thing! Through excitement to make my first cake of the new academic year, and the fun concept of another football team, we mistakenly overlooked the complexity of this cake. So, when we had made the scarf and everything else was done, we ventured into the task of placing it on the cake, at which point everything collapsed. However, after some much-needed repair, the cake eventually came to a hopefully presentable one.

Fruits in the forest cake!

Although Nigella Lawson may be my favourite, Lorraine Pascale has to come close behind, and I thought I would FINALLY do this cake, as I've admired it for quite some time. This particular cake is slightly different, as it is a red velvet cake with creme cheese frosting and all sorts of berries, but the concept is originally hers and I give her all the credit! And although it used a lot of the chocolate swirls, there were enough left for us to  gratefully munch on!

Cheesy but sweet!

A cake, that at a first glance, may seem extremely cheesy, but upon reflection, might be concluded to be relevant. When asked to make an anniversary cake for the combination of two anniversaries, I decided that it would not necessarily be so awful if I made it cheesy, so with all the colours and hearts, it truly looks like an anniversary cake. And also, I have to thank my mum and sister for cheesy creative input in this one!
