Cake and Card

It was my Mum's birthday last week and in addition to getting her a present I also made her a cake and a card.

For the card a roughly drew a flower and then cut out all the parts with a scalpel.

I put a piece of coloured paper on the inside to highlight the cut-outs.

The cake was a standard Victoria sponge.

To decorate the top I tried putting a plastic doily on the cake and sifting icing sugar over it.

It kind of work, but I piped on some extra icing just to define the pattern.

And I put the cake on our 'I love you Mummy' plate.

Oh yes.
