Springtime in London

We are all suffering the effects of the ash cloud and if you are stuck somewhere and have had your life upended, our thoughts are with you! But if you are on the other end, its hard to be down about it on a day like today. Blue skies, warm sun, flowers bursting out from every branch...and the slow pace. The empty streets, the silence and the peace. I think in a way it's been nice to slow down for a few days and to literally, stop and smell the roses.

So this afternoon, I came home and sat in the garden, had a cup of tea and a truly amazing sweet-tart lemon bar. Really, as close to tasting spring as you can get. The flavour bursts with sunshine and when there is nothing else to do but wait, can you ask for more?

A Very Good Day for Cake

We make cakes all the time for lovely people all over the big smoke, but today we really went all out to make two particular lovely ladies super happy!

Firstly, the super cool Mademoiselle Robot got married today and being the truly unique and stylish girl that she is, she wanted a decidedly unique and stylish wedding cupcake display.







Secondly, the amazingly creative and super talented Emma, otherwise known as Erqsome celebrated the big 3-0 with a super lush vegan chocolate cake!



Doesn't she look like a cake loving super spy?? Oh, yes she does.



Hope you have enjoyed this glorious weekend, even if you are stuck somewhere because of the stupid ash cloud.
