I'm Back!

Hi Everyone! 

As the title says, I'm back! Did you miss me? 

Sorry i've not been on here for a while, a close family member passed away so we've been kind of kept busy or distant you might say. But I'm back now, slowly getting back into things, god job I have my baking ey? (Bit of Sheffield for you there haha) 

I'm currently typing this up on the Mac and honestly, I prefer using my windows laptop, they keys on the board are a bit meh, whereas the ones on my laptop (Lappy) are much speedier and free to move! 

Anywho! There has been some things happening since the last time I posted but not much, when I say that I mean there isn't a lot of back log - Which is GREAT! So onwards and upwards with the updates! 

So here is the second rose I ever made for college, it was supposed to go on my cake but I gave it to my Nan :') Which she loved, I wanted to give her the first ever roses that I made, but sadly she might not of been here when I would get my moderation date. 

Speaking of Moderation! It's in May! May!! Ahh I can't believe I finish my first year soon, god that's gone so quick even to say it's one lesson a week, it's still gone super quick. I will be sad to go. But when it's my last lesson, I shall do a post with EVERYTHING I have made in that year, which will  be good as I can see my progression.  Don't worry though, I'll be doing level 2 and 3!

So yeah, that's my rose! I've been looking forward to making these for a while, I'm still not perfect with them but I'm getting there, love making them though, it's so relaxing! 

Another thing from college that I made was Mike Wazowski! I mean look how cool he looks! Doesn't he just look fab? 

I love him to pieces and enjoyed making every bit of him, it was great fun and a new thing I learnt. I will attempt to make Sully one day! Plus Monsters Inc. Is my favourite film in the whole wide world an love it to bits! Would love to make a little Boo - Sugarpaste that is! Haha

More posts to come soon, may be a little bit of a spam - Only a small one! But I will try my best to keep them down. 

Much love, as always!

Adventure Time - Jake the Dog Birthday Cake

Hey everyone!

So so so sorry I haven't been posting in what seems like forever, I have been busy with work experience, college (Which I will tell you about soon!) and Volunteering at the Library recently. But I will inform you all that I have been doing LOADS of baking of cakes, cookies and puddings! Even bread :) So I will post all of these things up as soon as possible. 

The above picture is the birthday cake that I made for my brother last year for his 17th Birthday. If you can guess who it is, well done! :D If you don't know who it is, it's Jake the dog from a TV show called Adventure Time :) 

So this is Jake the Dog, which is the character who the cake is based upon. 

I really loved making this cake and Jake, I know that the modelling isn't the greatest but it was my first attempt at it and I was well chuffed, and still am looking back in it. Probably not so much now though haha But I really did enjoy making him. 

The cake was lemon, and it was decorated using fondant icing including Jake, which looking back again he probably should of been made out of sugar paste, but oh well! The stars we're made with fondant too and cut out using a star cutter :) 

I love Adventure Time so much :D
