The girls had the most wonderful time decorating their little cakes, and were even let loose on the big birthday cake, rolling lots of little roses and sticking them on top to create a gloriously girly cake for the birthday chick.

Here is the result:

A cupcake party is totally up my street - what a great idea ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a lot of fun. I'll have to keep that in mind for my girls when they get a little older.
ReplyDeleteWOW! How much fun, I've seen these made in shops but never thought it would be easy to do yourself. Great idea....better then spin the bottle.
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea they look great I could have one with my cup of tea right now they look that good.
