Yummy Cake Time

Mmmmmm !!

My daughter had to choose a place for Work Experience

and didn't have a clue where to go.

If the children couldn't find a suitable place to go to, then

the school would choose a hospital or school for them to

do their work experience,

So DD choose Celebration Cake Shop called Sonia's in
Crosby, Merseyside...and was a great pick it turned out

to be.

It was her birthday the second day she was there and the

owner, Sonia made her a cake.

Which I thought was really sweet of her...and it was filled with

cream and jam, too!

It didn't last long with only a few crumbs left.

She had to design and make her own cake. So she based this one on Wallace and Gromits Big Bunny.

It was a super chocolate cake and

that too soon disappeared.

Here's a little baby, surrounded by roses that she modeled

while she was waiting for me to pick her up.

Definitely very talented
