As some may know, we are heading for our 25th wedding Anniversary. We have decided to have a little celebration, so a cake is what is required! I found a very good recipe from the Pink Whisk . A lovely cake but the timings are way out for my cooker, it took considerably longer and alot of checking to get it right but I think it’s worth it.
I’ve wrapped it up in a layer of greaseproof paper and a layer of foil to mature and then Icing….well thats a whole other big deal….anyone with icing tips?

Cornflour is your friend if you are using fondant icing. I would suggest a crumb coat of either buttercream or smooth, warmed apricot jam to get the icing to stick too. Shout if you need another pair of hands!
