    They have a farmers market in Cullompton yeah but, believe it or not, i have never been! We have lived here 18 months now (lived in Bristol before) and i keep meaning to go but never do.

    Don't panic - i'm no competition for you. I'm just making for friends and family at the mo and am just *thinking* about possibly going into business. :)

    Wow I haven't stopped since Thursday!

    Thursday - baked 48 cupcakes and two 9" cakes. Decorated 12 of the cupcakes.

    Friday - my sister went into labour and messed up my super organised plans! (very proud aunt to a gorgeous baby boy :D) Decorated 30 cupcakes before I collapsed in bed!

    Saturday - decorated the 2 9" cakes, I put them together to make a football pitch. Put the 30 cupcakes into boxes and tied them up with ribbon (my niece helped with this bit!)

    Sunday - baked an 8" chocolate cake & 36 chocolate cupcakes. Decorated the cake and 12 of the cupcakes.

    Monday - decorated 24 cupcakes. Took 36 cupcakes to the cafe, they ordered another 12 for next Tuesday :D

    I've got to bake a cake for my dads birthday tomorrow, will do that later. Haven't got to bake anything til Thursday then!

    Having a very early night tonight and a nice long lie in tomorrow! :rotfl:

    OMG! when did you sleep and was it all worth it. the cakes are looking FAB!

    I bought a little snowflake plunger cutter in Julian Graves a couple of weeks ago. Think it was £2.99.

    I was most excited to see they have just started doing a 'baking range' with bits and pieces of cake decorating stuff. :)
