Another cake for another party, though for an adult this time 🙂 I was pretty happy with how this one turned out – not only did the decorations end up super pretty (and the violin didn’t break, woohoo!), but the cake itself was nut-free, dairy-free, egg-free, refined-sugar-free and gluten-free, but it still had a lovely

Birthday cake for a dragons-and-knights-and-princes-and-princesses party. The cake was a five-minute quickie type thing, but the dragon took a good three hours the night before to sculpt. It was fun, even if it did mean a much later night than planned, and it was totally worth it all to watch it breathe fire when we

It occurs to me that due to sketchy and sporadic internet access the last three weeks, I haven’t done a 2018 wrap post. I’m not sure anyone particularly *cares* about this, but hey!
