Yesterdays cake went a bit wrong, cake tins too large so samdwich layers were thin, then chocolate cream went wrong, i melted cadburys but that didnt work well and when i mixed with cream went sloppy mess! DD decorated it though!

I don’t bake very often as I’d eat it all and I wouldn’t be able to decorate cakes like some of you have

I do eat a lot 😂 oops!

Practice is all it takes though for the decorating. Some of mine were awful in the beginning!

I also made Mini egg cookies but they only got 8/10 because I did it break the mini eggs up or put any on top 😩

Aw yay!
😍

8 out of 10 is a pretty good score! Well done!

I’ll add some pics - the pie needed to set properly but they were very impatient. I used normal chocolate spread rather than white and 23 buenos - my tin was too big really

I made these for kids to decorate yesterday

And these for a Ruby wedding anniversary

Yum! Makes me hungry 😋 I've made it a few times now and I swear it gets better each time. My kids beg me to make more 😂
