A close relative's lovely daughter turned one this week and I had wanted to do a cake for her and promised a while back. As usual, even though I had already asked what they wanted long ago back and actually designed the cake on the computer ( which I don't usually do ) , I only ended up starting something concrete last week and had to cut out some bits from the design cos of time and some unexpected events.
Now coming to the design, the little lady loved Five little Ducks to bits and she was going to wear a gorgeous white dress with bits of purple and bright pink in it......so we have a theme now........
Had to do quite a bit of baking for this one , tried a new medium for parts of the cake which tested my patience till the last minute (weather didn't help either) and finally finished it at the last minute with a bit of physical collateral damage.........oh no.... no....not to the cake but moi....... So here is my Happy cake..... with the ducks having a swim on a sunny day..........hope you like it :-)
