I was pretty short on time to put together a cake for my Mum’s 60th birthday party, and it travelled on a plane so had to be pretty simple. I couldn’t decide on a theme, so just ended up making little representations of things about her around the side of the cake. A blue quad bike (she has one), a ‘made in Australia’ logo (she’s an Aussie), gardening, a pavlova (she’s known for them), travel signs, a sewing machine… stuff like that. Not my favourite cake, wish I could have spent more time and made it more special for her.
