And here it is, behold: the actual cake that last week was the practice for 🙂 Tis a gluten-free apricot jam cake, recipe tweaked a little from last week (and still not perfect, but better than it was) filled and iced with Italian meringue buttercream, flavoured with pistachios, mashed strawberries and rosewater. Decorated, as per […]

This week, a practice cake. I needed to test out the recipe before using it for a Big Paid Cake ™ so here we are. I’m glad I tested it first, as it does need a couple more tweaks. The verdict in the staffroom was that it was great – but notably, there were still

Behold, cake! It’s been a while since I caked last (I’m taking on significantly fewer cake projects this year, both because of the probable-celiac diagnosis and because sanity, I hear, is a Thing), but it was super fun working on this gorgeous birthday cake this weekend. The brief was two-tier in teal, pink and gold.

More cake! If you were playing along on social media, you’ll recall back at the end of November that I had a somewhat sleepless week as I did both a birthday cake and a wedding cake. (Honestly, I prefer to double up on them if I have to; two cakes in one week is fewer
