AGray that might work, if it's really thin it 'll come off with the cigarello's won't it?! Please tell me you're joking about the chickens!

Here it is 

Now back to the golf bag!

Grey I once had a request for bride & groom, dog, bike and wait for it....orville the duck! 

AHello just thought I would update you on the start of my fisherman cake !! It's not perfect but it's a start, hope your all ok really don't have time to read between posts as been busy with work, school runs, birthdays, baking, and now modelling figures my worst thing eek !

Congrats on bell jar cake BTW. .

AOh stupid phone stricks again can't post pic!

Great cakes BTW every one ! Tiddy I could climb in that bed ;-)

A

ALove the bed cake tiddy :-)

Gray, I think the answer is clear. You need to get another job, far, far away from bride of crazy town!

Maisie, can you not fill and ice the top tier with ganache? It's really lovely in a vanilla sponge. Either that or vanilla buttercream and ganache cover?

AAw that is just blinking great tiddy and all in a day!!!

Tiddy, you're such a fast worker! Fantastic cake!

AFab cake Tiddy! I love the valance.

Is ganache really nice with sponge Lizzy? I love sponge an I love ganache but didn't think they'd be nice together.

Who suggested chocolates on top of m4rvelgeeks emergency cake? Was it roxy? Anyway, whoever it was I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea? I was going to put maltesers around the base of the top tier and on the top too. Posh chocolates will be much nicer and grown up tho won't they? Besides, I don't like maltesers much! :-D

A

You sneak ahead by 1 point with that one brilliant! Lol

Fabulous cake Btw I really love it!

AMy two wedding cakes had a bride and groom with bums in the air with ducks and pigs, very odd!

APeople have the strangest ideas sometimes!

ADefinitely maisie, it's lovely :-) You could always give the sponge a splash of Cointreau sugar syrup as well for an orangey hit, but I like it as is. It goes down well at the wedding fairs too so it's not just me :-)

It worked lol

AWhat are you making Jo?

AFisherman themed cake !! Not sure yet how the fisherman going to turn out never done a person yet !

AOh yes you did say. I recently bought person mould, not tried it yet tho.

AWell just got in from my nan's birthday so just going to start icing board then making man with a rod and line, who knows what he will turn out like the lady said he must have green hat and grey hair like her husband whose cake it is !!!

ASimplest Jo???

ASimples I meant Jo!

ASimple is key on my cakes ;-) !

Thanks Petitecat 

Maisie vanilla cake and chocolate ganache sounds good to me and I think brown fondant would look good on top to if you need a plan b. Yes it was me who put posh chocs on top of the cake here is a pic so you can see what I did.

 Grey OMG that women sounds a nightmare.

Tiddy cake is fab as always I love what you wrote on the board. I don't know how you do them so quick.

Hi Jo like the boat and duck really cute.

I don't think I've missed anyone but sorry if I have.

AOoh, that sounds lovely Lizzy! Trouble is I've spent so much already I don't really want to buy a whole bottle of something I might never use again. Shame I've already made actually, I could have just made orangey flavoured sponge couldn't I. I've got posh (by posh I mean expensive!) orange extract tho, could I make a syrup with that and squirt it on them?

Love your boat Jo.

ASorry roxy, didn't see your post. That cake is lush, we've seen it before haven't we? I'm sure I remember it. Hope you don't mind me stealing your idea?

I think I did post it before but couldn't find it in the thread photos, steal away it was actually a cake from my Carol Deacon book but I changed it quite a bit to posh it up and added the posh chocs.You could make an orange sugar syrup to use on the cake.

ANo wonder you couldn't find it roxy, it's probably about 12000 pages back!

Thanks everybody, got a couple of ideas and a plan b now, still nervous tho, never made a cake for a proper party with inlaws, outlaws and strangers before!

Off to the kitchen I determinedly go! G'nite everyone. :-)

Night Maisie and good luck I know it will be brilliant.

Oooh Roxy I love that cake! note to make one soon added to the never ending list!

Ive almost finished the golf bag too  all the fiddly bits left........I officially hate zips 

Prep is key with me but god knows why as my whole life is organised chaos 

Besides which I had to keep myself busy as the virtual stalking may have taken over haha! I shall be bored once these have gone :)

Thanks Tiddy, I'm sure you won't be bored for long
