Birthday Cake

A few girlfriends came round for lunch today including birthday girl Linda. We had a very healthy Salad Nicoise, followed by a chocolate and beetroot BIG cake. It was gorgeous.

I used a Lakeland recipe, the icing was too runny so if you make it don't add the double cream is my advice.

    Yum! cake! I can't wait to move house (back to our old house with a good oven) and start a baking powerhouse!

    I think I would like the icing better like that. It is a beautifully tall cake!
