"Cake" #6

My local Waitrose doesn't stock it.  Ditto Tesco and Sainsbury's.  The local baker said "what for".  The staff in Lakeland looked at me blankly when I asked for this until a "more experienced" lady suggested I looked for it on the internet. 

So from the foothills of Holmfirth and via the interweb and Amazon, this oddly suspicious looking package has arrived at my desk ready for the wonder that is "Cake" #6.

Cake #4

This is what you get when you combine a text from the boss and a powerful oven...

Looks like I'll be in the office kitchen at 0dark:30 attempting round 2 then....

December got in the way...

Oh, it was so difficult to choose from all the stiffened card invitations that lined the shelf above the roaring log fire - all the various red carpet events, exciting dinner parties and glamorous A-list gatherings kept us busy for the whole of the holidays... (or the more than likely reasons that kept us too busy to be badass in December: holidays, buying & wrapping presents, writing cards, visiting family and of course seasonal illnesses like flu and non-seasonal but very strange illnesses like labyrinthitis)  

Anyway, this is the ingredients list for next week:

soft margarine / soft brown sugar / eggs / self raising flour / Bourneville cocoa / soft cream cheese / caster sugar / vanilla ice cream (!) / Cadbury's Buttons / seedless raisins / liquorice shoe lace / lime jelly / blue food colouring / butter / icing sugar / yellow food colouring / Cadbury's Creme Eggs / glace cherries / marshmallows / angelica / bananas / Cadbury's Flake / chopped nuts / egg whites

So it's safe to say we will be back with a bang...

And finally, after nearly 30 years, I will finally get to make the "cake" I always wanted on my birthday - and it's not even my birthday!
