Mums are usually all too happy to admit how incredibly amazing bringing a child into the world is, I decided that for my dear colleague and friend Zenobea, this happiness and joy needed to be properly celebrated with an equally special baby shower.
She is having a baby girl and has told us that her colours for the little one will be soft and light shades, I used that for the theme for her party.
Her gifts included both edible and not so edible treats...
Every little girl needs a party dress, personally in my 'early days' a pretty dress (fully equiped with itchy bouffant petticoat, stockings and ofcourse jack and jill shoes was a necessity, so my frist presie was a purple cupcake dress, with a darker ribbon around the 'waist'
I used a basic vanilla cupcake recipe with purple buttercream icing
Some treats dont need to be eaten to be enjoyed, these cakes were especially for the little one.
Nappy cakes are easy and fun to make / assemble. and best of all they dont need oven time
In planning any event (however big or small), there is sure to be TEA, coffeee and things to eat
I had loads of fun planning this and had even loads more help from Pren and Cathy, so thanks you two !
More importantly, after all the fun and cake, I would like to wish Zenobea and her familyall the best in this new chapter and cherish all the happiness that her new bundle of joy is sure to bring.
Love
Sam

Step 1 Assemble using various sized cake tins to get your shape and fasten with string |
Step 2 Decorate as desired using ribbons, wrapping paper, even fabric |
In planning any event (however big or small), there is sure to be TEA, coffeee and things to eat
The cuppies are vanilla sponge and lime green buttercream icing |
