Tomorrow is my birthday, but I'm working, so today I am having my girlfriends & their kids around for a high tea to celebrate. I've been baking pretty much non-stop since Friday, so I thought I'd share the results with you all. On the table are:

My birthday cake (the blue & gold 2 tier - there is a close up photo in my gallery that I posted yesterday - please take a look!). 6in lemon & 9in strawberry with matching buttercreams, fondant covered.

Real English scones with strawberry jam and whipped cream

Vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream

9in carrot cake with cream cheese frosting

9in chocolate buttermilk cake with chocolate buttercream

Everything made from scratch (inc the fondant!) - I'm exhausted but pleased with the way it has all turned out!

Really wish I could have my CC girlfriends around to enjoy all this baking too - there would probably enough to go around lol!

Thanks for looking icon_biggrin.gif

Your birthday cake is gorgeous! Isn't it funny how we have to make our own birthday cakes - if anyone else made it, it wouldn't be the way we wanted icon_smile.gif. I hope you have a lovely time with your girlfriends! I am sure they will love it! Happy birthday!
