The last time i baked a proper cake, complete with fresh cream and decoration was a year ago, which was for my sons' birthday.
Now that i'm baking a proper cake again after 1 year hiatus, is also for the same reason. And i think the next time round would be next year, for my baby's 1st birthday! Lol.
Frankly, i don't quite fancy decorating my cakes with cream etc.
i- to save on the calories
ii- to save cost
iii- to save time
Kekeke.
Anyway, below is this year's birthday cake for Shuoze :)
Pic taken the next morning. Argh, didn't know M&M's colour were gonna run and stain the cake this badly :(
I almost killed myself for smudging the side, not once but twice during decoration. I couldn't touch up/repair because the fresh cream was all used up. I'm such a klutz sometimes.. or rather, most of the time :P
Luckily, the birthday boy was too thrilled with the cars to noticed the smudged cake. Grin.
We celebrated the first birthday cake in school yesterday -- got brought forward coz next week is school holiday--. The next cake will be baked on Monday which is the real day, for celebration at in law's house.

wow, cute cake! your boys are real lucky to have home-baked birthday cake all the time :D
and don't worry about the smudges on the side, they look like the 2 toy cars rolled up the side of the cake to get to the cocoa powder track on top.
Thank you dearie.. Hehe *blush*
Very wild imagination u got there girl! Hehe :P
Your kids are so cute! you must be a supermom with three boys and still find time to bake a beautiful cake.
