Busy times

Sometimes life is just running its own course and that is just what happens here at ours.
Towards the end of a school year there are so many end of year performances, parents meetings with teachers and class parents (camping trips have become very popular at our school at the moment), summerfairs and shows to attend - work has to take a step back.
We have also celebrated two birthdays in a month of two of my children...so those are my reasons of abstinence to this blog.
Now I am back and I though I share at least some of the cake creations we (my children and me) worked on!
You can probably guess who chose what cake....yes the social media cupcakes for my 12 year old son who is social media fanatic and the minecraft for my 7 year old. The rainbow cake was an add on for the gay pride weekend when the family came and visited to celebrate.


 Social Media Cupcakes

My son loves Instagram, You tube, facebook and yes - twitter. 


 Minecraft Cake
Both my younger children helped me with this cake - it took us 4 hours to complete as not only we baked and iced the cake but Steven, the creeper and the pig had to be shaped out of the sugar icing. We added some sparklers at the top to finish the TNT (dynamite) together with some birthday candles.
