SOS

I may have more to show off tomorrow, as I'm presently running back and forth to the kitchen baking sponges to make a birthday cake for Darren (32 tomorrow) Ive decided to go for a Celtic football shirt design seeing as he is a big Celtic fan, and also looks reasonably easy to achieve (note: not really decorated cakes before but it cant be that hard.... can it?) so far Ive cooked 2 rectangle sponges for the main shirt and 1 loaf sponge for the sleeves I also managed to burn and singe my thumb nail while lighting the oven...... nice!



Just now have to attempt putting it into the shape of a t-shirt filling and icing it :-O this will be fun and so much for it being cheaper, the one I was going to buy in Tesco was about £8 I think, this little lot cost me over £13 and I have to do all the work. I'll be chuffed if I pull it off though. Now onto my SOS photo, I took this earlier on in the week while we were out walking the 'meadows' I then converted it to black and white in photoshop.
