Kids Birthday Cakes

 Iggle Piggle

It was my two cousins birthday party last week and these where the cakes they asked for. The iggle piggle cake was for JD who just turned Four. He loves Iggle Piggle and chocolate which is exactly what he asked for and exactly what he got. He wasn't however all that up for cutting the cake. I can kind of understand why he does love iggle piggle enough for him to want a cake of him made and then we try and slice him up haha. Poor child gave in eventually only because he knew there was chocolate on the inside. I used green and blacks organic chocolate powder for the first time making this cake and have to say that I will only use it from now on. The difference in the taste was incredible and absolutely gorgeous. It's left me wondering why I never tried it before.

 Fairy

This was Katie-Mae's cake. She has just turned Five and loves everything girly and fairy like. She asked me to make a cake of as fairy that had wings and was magic and glittery. The most important part was a sparely wand. I wanted to make it special inside as I knew she would like it (which she did). This is why I added food colour the the mixture before putting it in the tins. I actually love when someone cuts the cake and gets a surprise of the favorite colours on the inside. Although this is not for everyone so I only do it occasionally or when asked. I used four sandwich tin cakes to make this using buttercream in between each layer  Then I carved the shape of the dress and cut a hole and put the doll in. After that I covered it in buttercream and then fondant before decorating it with cutout leaves and frills (this took the longest). A few finishing pieces and glitter (edible of course I don't use the non toxic ones only edible).
