I love these cakes! These are part of an order of 30 I did for a girl's birthday and she asked me just to do a range of flavours and colours and I'm really pleased with the way they look. It's really easy with the pink colouring to go a bit over the top - as I've done here! - but then you realise that the calpol pink looks pretty good with blue flower :)

I also love the white swirls with mini chocolate buttons and the white chocolate star decorations. In fact they all look pretty good...

I did my cake decorating classes the other day and they went quite well. There were a few too many children and I realised very early that, if you should ever teach a class of children how to make cakes, it is better to have the buttercream made beforehand rather than to make each bowlful at a time as impatient children gather at your side waiting for theirs. But they all went off with a plateful of crazy cupcakes - however many sprinkles, silver balls, stars or jars of edible glitter you put out for children they will use every single last bit of it. They consider it a waste of a valuable afternoon to not absolutely cover their little cakes in as much decoration as they can hold :)

This week on the market my brownies were very popular - I used very posh Swiss chocolate for some of them but it didn't work nearly as well as the usual fairtrade chocolate or Sainsbury's Belgian chocolate that I use - so it just shows you never can tell. And I've started to make scones too - I really enjoy making them and they sell pretty well too which is good!

Next week on the stall, more brownies, Hugh FW's yummy chocolate cake, sticky toffee cupcakes, scones and much more..
