The weather is continuing to be beautiful, so warm and sunny, perfect for a lazy day in the garden. I am just about to slap on the suncream, put on my sunhat and relax on my sun lounger. I am ready for a rest after two busy days in the kitchen - very hot for baking, my icing would just not behave itself.
My friend Barbara had asked me to make a cake and some cupcakes for her grandson's christening - another baby Jake he is adorable and has just started to crawl. I decided to make a few extras as a little gift from me, some chocolate dipped marshmallows and some little sweet favours for the children.

ReplyDeleteHello Sue,
ReplyDeleteI really should have skipped this post as its drool liable but temptation was too much.
It all looks absolutely delicious and I love the little packs of sweet bits that you've made up too. You definitely deserve garden quality time after all this baking.
