I used to bake from home, but now I work as a baker, so this blog is more a record of what I've done, than what I'm doing now. Please visit me at my new blog though: http://abc-ablebakercharlie.blogspot.com

Cocktail Hour
Caramelising lime slices in a sugar syrup.
The cakes were brushed with some of the lime-flavoured syrup (from making the caramelised limes)
Vanilla cakes, brushed with lime syrup and topped with 'Margarita' buttercream: flavoured with lime juice and a pinch of salt.
Edged with crunchy, coloured sugar and topped with a twist of caramelised lime.
Vanilla cakes with a Strawberry 'Daiquiri' topping: brushed with lime syrup and iced with strawberry buttercream.
Decorated with a fondant cocktail glass, silver balls and a maraschino cherry.
The ubiquitous cocktail umbrella
Chin chin!
Kristina (who was the recipient of the fashion-themed cakes last month), must have been happy with her cakes, as she ordered 6 cocktail cakes for her friend's birthday.
I made 3 'margarita' and 3 'strawberry daiquiri' cakes. However, no alcohol was involved in the making of these cakes (sorry)
