Jaq, haven’t seen you around for a while!

I know what you mean about busy! I done the accourdian cake yesterday…I hope it lasts for Saturday, I won’t be doing one of those again in a hurry! Then have cupcakes and biscuit favours to do for the same party! Looking forward to getting paid though…so will all be worth it in the end!

I have baby boy shower cupcakes for a friend next Saturday and a chocolate box cake due the same day…eeek!

Have a weekend off, as its V Festival ( ) then have a 2 tier christening cake for 28th…

ETA: and a giant cupcake for 31st!


I really need help actually on mixing your own colour fondant? She wants the christening cake marshmallow pink and lime green with matching gerberas on…I have never mixed my own colours up before and I’m scared…can someone help?

Now i am more than a little stressed, i hve a broken hand!!

*please excuse the state of this post,typing with wrong hand!

 

[craftymum]

can anyone recommend a good icing bag set? I don't get on with disposables at all - would a syringe be any good or are they awkward to use?

 

[Glitterfairy]

Awww Jo i hope you are ok xxx

 

[gemgti]

[Arlandria]

Oh no!! Jo, hope you're OK! How did you manage that?? x
