A Little Bit of Bragging.....

So first up I have to apologise for being absent for the past week but things have been extremely hectic around my house lately and unfortunately blogging had to take a bit of a back seat.

Anyhoo, I just wanted to do a really quick post to brag about one of my finest creations in a long time. It's in no way beauty related but I just couldn't help but share:



Behold, the cutest cake I have ever made so far in my life. This was for my little man's 2nd birthday party last week and is seriously one of the most amazing things I have ever done!

You need to know that I don't bake, period. I've always been a savoury eater and am never really excited about sweets or cake but made a promise that I would always try and make a decent cake for our little guy for his birthday because I never got to have a cake or a party for any of mine when growing up. I could literally count the number of cakes I have tried to make in my life on one hand.

I did make him one last year but it was more of a toe-dip into baking and was just a plain number 1 cake that was pretty simple, but this year I wanted to challenge myself a bit so decided to do his favourite animal instead of just the number 2.

My entire kitchen was coated in blue coconut by the end but I'm still proud as (if you can't already tell :-))

Has anyone else done any achievements lately you'd love to share?

Have a great week.

    1. This was one from the Women's Weekly cake book as well. There's no way I could have done it without a pattern of some sort and that book is just awesome!
