    Thank you for all the lovely comments on my graduation cake :)
    It went down very well, after our meal I lit a fountain tube thingy on it, and carried it to the table, my sons face was a picture and he said Wow a few times!
    Loved the sparkle fountains, they were impressive!
    Everyone at the table thought the restaurant had made it.


    Couple that with his grad gift, he was one happy son :)

    I'm really hippy, as its been a testing time for us over the last year, so being there today was the icing on my cake!

    Classic cupcakes w/buttercream swirls
    English puddings
    Retro sweets
    Vintage/shabby chic
    Flowers
    Summer

    Thanks x

    Wow they're really pretty. I just put them in standard cupcake boxes with the inserts to hold them in place. They'd be nice for a really special pressie
