A selection of cakes for a 40th birthday. The request was for colourful cakes with a shoes and handbags theme. And for approximately half the cakes to be egg free!
No problem – the vegan society have some great recipes that definitely passed the family’s taste test. The chocolate recipe may just become my standard one in the future!

Very beautiful! The detailing on the purses is amazing! How long did the entire order take you?

Thank you both! I spent a happy afternoon making the shoes and handbags, along with the flowers (though there were plenty of flowers over for another order too!)
Baking, piping and covering the cakes probably took me another three hours, finishing them and piping the message plus the clearing up probably two more. So in total I imagine I spent a full eight hour day on them. I thoroughly enjoyed this project but working it all out like that makes me realise they were exceptionally good value at £80.00. Do other bakers have this challenge when pricing goods? xx
