    Wow Bindiboo, your cakes look stunning! I hope people appreciate the effort you've put into them and support the charity generously.

    ETA: Just scrolled back a few pages on this thread - there's some amazing talent here. Well done!

    hi, does any one have a good birthday cake recipe? i think i'll have to make one 3 days in advance (for decorating time). I usually make the all in one victoria sandwich but is there a madeira which is as simple, and can be made with same method? (one that will be firm but not dry etc).

    thanks
