Chris's Hunting Cake






It's been 6 months since I have decorated a cake. I get quite a few emails asking for tips and advice on cake decorating.... the biggest trick in my opinion is PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! Cake decorating (for me) isn't like riding a bike.... I was rusty and this cake kicked my butt LOL

This is for my lovely (hunting mad) husband who turns 39 tomorrow. Made with loads of love (a few swear words).

    I am laughing that you said made with love and swearing. Gosh how many of those days I have experienced while playing with flour!

    i was just browsing the web trying to find a turntable b-day cake and found your blog. i love the clean look of your cakes! They have such personalities and I bet they taste yummy too!

    Would it be okay to take some details of your cake to show our cake lady. She will be making a cake for my daughter's 13th b-day; the theme is music/DJ....thanks in advance for your consideration.
