Retirement Cake

Retirement Cake on Cake Central

Nothing in the least bit exciting about this cake. It's a cake with an edible photo for a lady who is retiring. The photo is of the Barnardo's Church, which is in the 'Barnardo's Village' - very, very near me. The lady is retiring from Barnado's and the customer requested this for her. I found the photo on Flickr and the guy who took it kindly let me use it for the edible image. The customer who ordered must have caught me at a weak moment - I found myself agreeing to do this cake for almost half price! Don't ask!! But he said he only had ?x budget and as Barnardo's is a charity and there would be x number of people there, isnt' there anything I could do. Anyway, I found myself saying yes. Had he been paying 'proper' price I'd have used a lightly larger cake drum and done a rose or two on the cake drum. I also didn't buy any ribbon espcially - I just used some I had in stock. So a rather bright pink! Cool And then did the inscription in the same sort of colour.
