January

Can you believe that we are already in February? It's a short month too so before we all know it we will be in March. 2014 seems to have got off to a busy start in the bakery. After our Wizard of Oz cake at the beginning of the month, we were straight in to baking and creating for our busiest weekend yet (and most stressful). We were commissioned to create a Mike the Knight Castle complete with Mike and a Dragon. At the same time we were also asked to make a delicious raspberry and almond birthday cake to celebrate a special 40th birthday. All of this needed to be completed and delivered the same weekend!

We don't mind a bit of pressure and a looming deadline always makes us work that little bit quicker, but when Phoebe developed excruciating toothache we weren't sure if we would make it on time. So, with some helpers on standby (just in case) Phoebe headed off on an emergency trip to the Dentist. A whole lot of pain killers later we made it...without helpers and with Phoebe feeling slightly away with the fairies, la la laaa! Phew!

Proud of our efforts and with Phoebe making a recovery we've now been able to take a deep breath and have a look at the year ahead, which is looking very exciting so far...have a look for yourself!
