Simply Modelling - May Day Morris Men

Fancy dress is always popular for children’s parties and Kathryn Kelly has designed a fab two tiered birthday cake with lots of hand modelled children in fancy dress.

Fairytale Engagement
Expert royal icer Lyn Rees has used her skills to create a gorgeous heart shaped cake with lacy fairy wing pieces to challenge you.

Cake Boutique - Olive Green Orchid
Omali Abeyratne has created a three tier wedding cake with a pretty piped lace overhang.

Home Baking
