Birthday Cake

Last weekend was my 25th birthday. It was wonderful for the celebrations to be spread over the whole weekend, spanning from Friday night to Sunday. Every day featured cake of some kind. Lots of different kinds, in fact, so here's a little rundown of the cake-friends that attended my birthday celebrations:

some of my very own :: vanilla & orange combo

seriously thickly coated vanilla with chocolate orange

mini meringues with pistachios & white chocolate

crafted by Mr Dave Evens :: chocolate lake

courtesy of the Hummingbird Bakery :: chocolate brownie with raspberry cheese cake

black bottomed cupcakes

Thankyou hummingbird bakery for enticing me with your spectacular cakes, comfy stools and bright, classy pink decor. You were brilliant.

And last but not least on the cake list, lemon drizzle cake, made by John's Mum. Thanks, Sarah! This one managed to get consumed before I was able to take a photo so you'll just have to use your imaginations...

Needless to say, I was a bit sugared out by Sunday, yet somehow I have managed to gently graze my way through the leftovers this week.
