sharalee99 Thanks. Only the 2nd time I have iced, so pretty pleased. The pink ones are 1M and choccy ones are 2D.

Sharalee99: Lovely jubbly then. It's been awhile that's why I forgot what nozzle was that. Thank you for letting me know. I'm thinking of getting one, where did u get yours from? It's rare that I bake now cos of work just for special occasions. I also wanna share some of my cakes... xxx

I'm loving the toilet cake:rotfl::T

I use stork (or the supermarket's own version of stork) and have never had a problem with it seperating or anything. i tend to make it up while the cakes are baking then refrigerate it for a while as it tends to get quite warm and soft from being mixed (i do it in my kenwood chef and beat it for quite a long time so its very soft, light and fluffy).

There are 2 types of stork - block and tub. Which do you use? I imagine block works better than tub as it is less likely to separate.

I know where you're coming from Nat, I'm like you that's why I had a hard time thinking of inspiration for my hubbys birthday cake but finally made it and made a big laugh from him. :j(knowing his humour worked a treat!)

Best of luck! x

Makeyourmummyproud - your cakes are ace! Well done!

Right, here is the hubby's cake. It wasn't what was planned, but, thanks to Nanamia for saving the day with her suggestions and support from afar, I think I managed to pull it off! Thanks to everyone else too, you're a supper bunch!
