With Louis' fourth birthday fast approaching I've been honing my cupcake technique. I say honing, when in fact I have very little experience with cupcakes beyond eating them. Anyway, yesterday I dug out my apron and dusted down the Kitchenaid. Et voila!
Ok, not quite Hummingbird Bakery standard, but the kids couldn't quite believe their luck and demolished in no time them with the help of their friends. Boozlebox kindly directed me towards these shark cakes so I'm going to have to do a bit more practising.
Louis is having a traditional British seaside themed party (yeah, yeah he'd probably rather have a Power Rangers/ Ben 10/ superhero party, but I reckon I can get away with doing it my way this year) and I was at a bit of a loss when it came to ideas for a birthday cake until I saw this. Perhaps ridiculously ambitious for somebody like me, but I'm going to give it a go. Plus, I got some fancy cookie cutters so I can try out making these.
