Happy Anniversary...

This adorable 4 Inch Cake was made for my son's teacher. She wanted a cake for two for her anniversary, the only thing requested was that she wanted a grey teddy bear on top and that it should say l love you somewhere.

I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

Well some exciting news, yesterday l went for a job interview at LET THEM EAT CAKE for anyone that does not know, this is the leading cake shop in Melbourne. They have the most amazing cakes, cupcakes etc. their designs are so creative and their work flawless.

After showing him some of my work, he said to give him a call in December as there will be some work for me in January. What a way to start the new year,I can't tell you how excited l am let's hope l don't disappoint them!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe is very special to me, for my Hens / Kitchen Tea Day my beautiful friends organised everyone to bring their favorite baking recipe. They then made me my very own book filled with some beautiful recipes, come to think about it maybe they did this so l could make them their favorites whenever they visited!

I got this one from Jane, she was my matron of honor.

1/2 Cup Butter

1 tblsp Peanut Butter

1/2 Cup White Sugar

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar

1 Egg Beaten

1 tsp Vanilla Essence

1 3/4 Cup Plain Flour

1/2 tsp bi-carb soda

1 Pinch Salt

1 Cup of Chocolate Chunks / Chips

Preheat Oven to 180'C

Beat Butter and Peanut Butter

Add both sugars and mix together till lighter in colour and fluffy

Add beaten egg and vanilla, mix

Fold through sifted flour and soda and salt

Mix in Chocolate

Roll into balls

Place cookies on a lined baking tray with enough room in between for the cookies to spread.

Best eaten as soon as they have come out the oven!

Enjoy!

Baby Jack

I was asked to make this cake from one of the Fathers from Cooper's Pre Prep Class, he organised this to celebrate the birth of their son Jack. His wife just love's cake, unfortunately she suffered quite badly from Diabetes and was unable to have anything sweet. To get her through labour he promised her a cake filled with lots and lots of Chocolate! Is there nothing chocolate can't fix?

I was given free range at designing the cake, l am really pleased with how it turned out.

I should also mention that baby Jack is just gorgeous!

Enjoy!
