Earlier this year, myself, a couple of friends, and my beautiful daughters, decided it would be nice to meet and spend time with each other doing something creative. So I thought it would be nice to make 'lovecakes'. We decorated heart shaped almond and chocolate cakes to give as gifts for Valentine's day. We drank wine (thoughtfully provided by my hubby)(the kids drank juice!) we chatted and laughed and had moments of silence when we were completely engrossed in the task at hand. It was a wonderful time and I thought I'd share some photos of the fruits of our labours.
So if you fancy giving the gift of a love cake, find a cake recipe that you like, make heart shaped cakes by pouring the cake mix into heart shaped cases. You can actually buy heart shaped cupcake tins or silicone ones, from a cake decorating shop. Decorate the cakes with fondant (ready to roll) icing, sprinkles, sugar roses or whatever takes your fancy, and spread the love! xxx
Wow! You're married? And a singer? And you have two girls? Wow, I've discovered so much about you already from your blog and I look forward to discovering more :)
ReplyDeleteThese cakes are beautiful! I've never made heart shaped cakes before and after this, I really would like to!
I'm so glad you've taken the blogging plunge and I look forward to reading more from you :) See you on Sunday!
Yoyo, the cakes are gorgeous. You are so talented. I didn't know you sing too. Now, I have to remember if you used to sing when we were in school. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to blogosphere!
Thankyou ladies for your kind words. xx
ReplyDeleteI didnt know your name meant 'to return well' - I have learnt something important and worthwhile today. Beautiful. I think it is so important to have name with real meaning. Loving your blog and the fact that you have time in your busy, busy life to share with others. Unfortunately, I dont have sound on my laptop (joys of technology that I know very little about), but am working on it. I want to hear that clip! Much love to you and Yours. Sx
