Lamp, they are printed from a machine very similar to a normal printer. The only difference is that it prints onto sheets of very thin fondant with non toxic ink, so it's called an edible image. :)

Drinking age here is 18. This lady was actually turning 32 I think, but apparently she has never gone past 21 for her cakes. Haha

She looked a little mature for a 21 y.o. to me, but I just assumed that's because kids today are in a hurry to grow up and look older. I'm actually relieved to hear she's in her 30s, because she looks it.

I did this yesterday for my neighbours daughter. It was good to try out a couple of new techniques on someone who was just happy to be getting a cake for their birthday. :)

That's creative and pretty, I'd be inclined to do something like that. Well done!

I don't like those little silver balls, they're too damn hard.
But that's a personal problem, the cake looks great.

Here's a simple one.

There have been some improvements in the cachou department Bruce. They are much softer these days, and you can get them in all sorts of colours. :)

Twinky minions! Haha. Love it.

I showed Mum this thread over the weekend, Ali.
Mum's first comment? I bet she makes a loss when she bakes for friends and neighbours, she's too nice. Which is a backhanded compliment of sorts...!

Underneath that she was genuinely impressed with your talent, saying "If only you had the plane fare, you could really help her out.". Hey, you met her, you know what she's like. She meant to say she thought you were amazeballs.

She asked about your personal circs and I replied honestly that I did not know, not having been around here much recently. We agreed that you would be following your heart regardless, because it's a big one. And that Eva must be growing up a real beaut.

Thanks Sundae. I know she would have said those things in all kindness. I say stuff like that too sometimes, not realising I have actually mildly offended people.

I am sure that if you put your mind to it, you could be just as successful as I have been. There are a lot of online tutorials available.

Oh and no, I don't make anything out of family and friends. Fortunately, they are only a small portion of my clientele these days. Haha

Brains...

Something I found on Caturday.

That snake cake is amazing. I was wondering about it. I wanted to see construction pictures. So I tracked down the baker, and it turns out you can order plans for the cake for only £9.99. :rolleyes:

Jabba.
