Two tier cake with building blocks

This cake was for a little girl who turned one.  Cake is very colourful and bright, topped with building blocks that spelt out her name Maya.  The bottom tier cake is a vanilla sponge with jam and buttercream, and the top tier is a chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream filling.

This is a square vanilla sponge cake with jam and buttercream.  I made this cake for an adorable little girl who is a big Arsenal fan hence the Arsenal t-shirt on top of the cake.  This design is also suitable for an adult.

Girly cupcakes

Red velvet cupcakes decorated with a birthday message, heart shapes and cut out flowers.  With cupcakes you don't have to worry about cutting up cakes...

Scrumptious red velvet cupcakes

Scrumptious red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese topping.  The topping gives it the added kick.
Red velvet flavour is gaining a lot of popularity.  I did not realise what all the fuss was about until i tasted Hummingbird red velvet cupcakes.  After that i  set to improve my recipe and after about 4 attempts i created a recipe that tickled my taste buds.  Colour of red velvet cupcakes varies, from a very bright red to a deep browny red, mine is somewhere in between. i add just a bit of cocoa powder some the chocolate flavour is quite subtle.  I have sold cupcakes at work to raise money for various charities and red velvet tends to sell out the fastest.  I am somewhat addicted to red velvet flavour.
