Nine in a bed
This is a 8 x 10" fruit cake. The brief was a grandad reading a story to his 9 grandchildren. I was a bit daunted at first, but once I got going it was fine. First time using Karen Davies face mould and I am really pleased with them, just need to perfect my face painting.

Christmas cake
This is a very quick christmas cake for some guys that I work with. It is a 8" square fruit cake that has been marzipanned & regal iced. The holly is made from green flowerpaste and the bow from regalice with CMC added. The banner is grey flowerpaste, embossed with a patchwork cutter and then sprayed with PME Pearl lustre spray.

Santa Cupcakes
These were quick and easy cupcakes that I made for my kids school Christmas party for tomorrow. I bought the cakes from the co-op today to make it quicker. I saw these being made at the NEC in November. It is basically a circle of pink sugar paste, then a semi circle of red. Cut a larger scalloped circle out if white and then cut a moon shape. Then add Santa's nose, pipe his moustache & hat trim. Finally add a wedge of red to be the hat bent forward and a ball of red sugar paste rolled in disco red edible art glitter.

Metallica Cake
This is a 12" HD sponge cake filled with Jam & buttercream. The Metallica logo was originally done as a runout but it cracked just as I was putting it onto the cake so I quickly remade it from paste and them sprayed it with PME pearl lutre spray. The Metallica writting on the side is a royal iced tun out while the lettering on the front ofthe cake is cut from curly tappits with the curls removed. Again it is sprayed with pearl lustre.
