Minty Snowflake Marshmallows!

Take a look at the tasty mint snowflake marshmallows we are making for the The Evian Alpine experience, which is taking place during January on the South Bank in London. The marshmallows are a collaboration with Rare Food, fantastic caterers based in North London. The marshmallows are nestled in gorgeous glass cloches and surrounded by a beautiful alpine mist transporting you for a moment to the snowy alps- aren't the Husky's beautiful!

If you are interested in the experience you can apply for you and six friends via the Evian Facebook page.

Hope you are all having a good week!

Inspiration

 We've been having a look at the latest fashion catwalk shows for spring/ summer this year and WOW do they look edible! We are particularly liking the pearly pastels and shimmery under the sea effects seen at Chanel, Louis Vuitton and the madness of Meadham Kirchoff. Feeling very inspired! An exciting start to the new year!

                                                                                                                                                                                Take a look at our Madeleine Wedding Cake featured in the May/June edition of Brides Magazine. We are very happy with the final shot, it looks so delicious!
We also have it on good authority that it smells pretty divine as well, with the freshly baked madeleines. In lemon and almond the cake is a refreshing change from chocolate and vanilla and would look so elegant at a relaxed informal celebration with all your friends.

Pat-A-Cake featured in June/ July Wedding Magazine!


I was very happy to see the postman this morning delivering the latest edition of Wedding Magazine! Which featured one of our new designs peaches and cream, a sweet little hexagonal cake,( a shape I am particularly loving at the moment) iced in pretty peach with cream details. I love the 'Majolica' roses on the top tier from the lovely folk at Pollen Nation. Perfect for a summer wedding and very reasonable at £295 .

Have a nice week!

Cake Break, A Cake and Coffee Morning to raise money for The Multiple Sclerosis Society











On Friday 21st May, I invited the girls round to decorate some cakes. To raise money for the Multiple Sclerosis Society, a brilliant charity who do great things for people and their families suffering from the affects of M.S. We had two types of cupcake to choose from, carrot cake with a silky cream cheese buttercream and lemon cupcakes with fresh lemon buttercream and plenty of zingy lemon zest. I taught the girls how to make little orange carrots to put atop the carrot cakes and pretty spring flowers to decorate the lemon cupcakes, which they went wild for! The ladies had a lovely time and I loved seeing how creative and different everyones cakes looked, very inspiring!
We managed to raise £200! Not bad for a mornings fun and natter! I'll let you know of future charity events and our coffee and cake mornings, please send me your e-mail if you are interested in attending the next one.

Best Wishes

Kate
