ooh Cakes Glorious Cakes

I was told about this fantasic baking accessory shop in St Neots, called Sugar Daddy's, and I think I've discovered heaven! I went in last week and spent a small fortune buying some quality regal icing in red, blue, pink and green, along with some powdery stuff that I had to work into the icing to make it more pliable to mould into shapes. A butterfly cutter and some professional food colouring.

Tonight I used a Nigella fairy cake recipe and I had a go at making some butterfly shapes and wow I'm impressed at how nice these look. But I will be making several other attempts before Emily's birthday as I'd like to use butter icing and some of the food colouring just to see what they could look like.


So yummy looking !
