6 Days to Go...

So Its now 6 days until my Birthday which means I am getting rather excited. One thing I am particularly excited about is my Birthday Cake. Usually my Mum forgets or runs out of time to make me one. But this year, she's making a particular effort to ensure I get a Mummy-Cake. 

I am not a great lover of Birthday Cake so as long as its pretty and its not burnt I am a happy girl, however after my Masterpiece that was Charlotte's Birthday Cake my Mum now has alot to live up to! Particularly since my last birthday cake was a bit of a flop...

I am not a huge lover of Victoria Sponge Cake and will generally choose a flavoured cake when confronted with a cake trolley in a tea room...

The only Victoria Sponge Cake I truly could have scoffed the lot of, was my 18th Cake made by the Brilliant Aunty Betty!

But generally I will choose Lemon Cake, Carrot Cake or an Almond and Raspberry Cake!

Then Icing is a tough choice. I dislike butter-cream and yet I love Vanilla frosting and I dislike tons of Fondant Icing. So I really am a tough cookie for baking a cake for!

I know my Mum is surprising me with my cake but that doesn't stop a cake lover and baker from having a browse.

I spotted this cake on Instagram as it was made for MissGuided's Birthday. I love how it is pastel colours and covered in sweeties! If it were made for me though, there would be a big 'R' on the top!

I love cupcakes - who doesn't!?! And these are particularly beautiful; delicate, pastel spring-like colours and shabby chic style.

Inspired by my future trip to NYC?!

My Love of Shopping - in Cake Form!

Or maybe a friends themed cake?

Or a Disney Cake?

Some of my favourite Musicals are on this cake!

This is simple but Cath Kidston.

I really fancy trying a Cake Pop!

Surely this cake was made for me - Rebecca & 21 & Cute & Pretty & Shabby Chic & Cath Kidston....P.E.R.F.E.C.T. (Almost!)
