Easter Bunny Drip Cake

IMG_8728

Hope you’re spending your weekend eating hot cross buns, wearing bunny ears and hanging with your favourite people. I’ve been preparing for Easter for about a month now by eating fistfuls of mini eggs daily, icing egg biscuits and dreaming up bunny drip cakes. I find Easter to be one of the cuter celebrations – all baby animals and pastel colours. So I made this

A Most Curious Wedding Fair with Prezola

The lovely ladies at gift registry company Prezola got in touch to see if I would provide some cakes for their stand at The Most Curious Wedding Fair this weekend. I was really excited as I attended the fair last year with Alexia and it was brilliant. It’s full of creative people exhibiting their alternative wedding businesses. If you want a cool wedding this is the place to head. The Truman Brewery is full of quirky cakes, dreamy dresses and Instagramable stationary this weekend. There are a few of my favourite spots from last night’s Press Preview below!

When the girls informed me of the botanical theme I couldn’t wait to dream up some fun bakes to match. I loved their painted look on the event poster so replicated this on a biscuit. I baked some

Guys, I’m a little bit obsessed with this cake. If it wasn’t for the cutest little boy turning 7, I don’t think I would have parted with it. I was so over excited that the brief was Star Wars. I loved the new movie and have been wanting to make a mega Star Wars themed cake ever since. You can see my rough sketch for the cake below. It included his favourite characters BB8 and Chewbacca and, of course, the Millennium Falcon. It also has a Kylo Ren, whose light sabre is also the birthday candle AND (my favourite part) the Death Star, which is also a mini piñata cake. The cake itself is
