Hi, just wanted to post a few pics of my daughter's cakes, she's improving by the week.

This is a Converse trainer cake she did in October,


Toothless the dragon!

one she completed yesterday-a 30th birthday cake for a hairdresser-it had 5 rainbow layers inside too!

Hi all, been reading through the thread as baking is something I want to brush up on and experiment with.
I've only ever made and decorated one cake, for my son's birthday last year, it tasted absolutely awful! :rotfl: I made it using a loaf tin, my mum put the butter and eggs in the fridge so the mix was all lumpy, silly me started making it at about 8pm! Total disaster!
