Cakes By Georgina

I realised yesterday, that I haven't shared any cakes I have made recently. So I thought I'd post some today! 


This is a princess castle cake I made for a friend's little girl. The cake was toffee flavoured and apparently a big hit. It's not often I stray away from the standard vanilla or chocolate flavours! I might do it more often. 


Everything on the cake was edible - the castle was made from fondant.


 I made a mystical cake for a friend's birthday - involving a dragon on top of the cake. Unfortunately whilst I got a quick snap of the dragon I forgot the actual cake, and it was eaten in quick time so no photos of the actual cake exist!


A friend asked me to make a simple no fuss cake for two of her relatives. Hence the above cake was born.


And I made a school mini bus cake with what has to be the biggest slices of cake ever!

Some good news...

A few months ago I was approached by an Italian patisserie magazine, Pasticceria Internazionale,  to use one of my cake images for an article on royal icing and decorating techniques.  They selected my run out teddy bear picture (no. 8) as well as other images from other contributors.  I had forgotten about the request until I received a copy of the article that was published in February this year so I thought I'd share it with you below.

And yes...the  article is written in Italian.
