STP's Birthday Train Cake

My little ‘un, SWP was two this weekend. So we had a family tea party, which was good fun, particularly the Train Cake made by Grandma Jenny (see the Grandma Jenny Cakes collection).

The train had nine separate carriages, each of which were decorated lavishly (mostly with sweeties) and was then lovingly placed on tracks made out of liquorice, with a bed of ‘grass’ provided by a splash of green food colouring and some dessicated coconut.

Fantastic cake, Grandma. What’s lined up next?

    BTP has requested a Dream Castle cake for his birthday later this month- if it comes out OK it should have a staircase, pointy turrets and a crushed glacier mint moat! Wish me luck !

    it was our young’uns first birthday on sunday.
    had about 40 family round, most in fancy dress.
    our lass has started making cakes. my gran has finally found someone to pass the torch to (or should that be spatula?).
    problem is, she doesn’t make them until about 8pm the night before the party, so she’s usually up until 2-3pm in the morning decorating them.
    it’s her own fault.
    at the minute she’s just doing round cakes but can make people out of icing.
    i want her to make one like that skoda off the telly.

    Congrats to the lil’ Pickard on reaching a second milestone in his career as the son of a blogger. :-)

    WIfe and I celebrated our birthdays this past weekend, too. Me on the 6th and she on the 7th. We’re both 40 now. How did this happen?

    Anyway, for years now, we pass the birthday baton between us at midnight, that is until we turned 40 and we could no longer stay up until midnight.
