    Well cause we're having a scottish theme I wanted this cake i seen that has wha looks like a piece of tartan cloth draped over it but its actually made of icing so its edible but h2b has said he want one of these novelty cake toppers (knew i shouldnt have let him go into hobbycraft with me) and its the only thing he's said specifically that he wants.

    I'll put a pic on my profile later of the one i want and the topper he wants

    I think sadly he will win as its the only thing he really wants, although it would save a bit of money getting a plain white sponge add our own ribbon and the topper as opposed to the £325 (ouch) for a 2teir cake

    I'm making a three tiered cake, top layer fruit, middle lemon and bottom chocolate. I'm still playing around with frosting and decoration, but want either marzipan, ivory icing or white chocolate.

    Ouhh all these cakes sound yummy!!

    We're having madiera cupcakes with whipped icing on them in yellow, and having a 6" top tier carrot cake, covered in yellow/green marble icing to cut. The cupcakes will be decorated with little hearts & butterflys cut out of the marble icing & we're having the same on the top tier but bigger as out cake topper, if that makes sense?
