Liam's 1st birthday cake
The turning point in my cake decorating passion and the start of things to come.
I loved doing this cake!!! I remember seeing a kids programme called Big Cook Little Cook and the article showed how to make a balloon cake. I had this idea in my head. The lady had made a blue cake. SO I made a blue cake. SHe had modelled balloons out of icing but for some reason I then got distracted and copied Steve's salt dough Saints football man and made one out of sugar paste and painted his shorts, shoes and stripes. I even borrowed a real pin badge for the crest.
Again I made the plaque but this time I trimmed the edge in a sausage of red. I vaguely remember using icing pens to write Happy Birthday Liam but don't know where I got the lettering from to trace over. HOwever, I was bitten and had the bug... the cakes then came thick and fast.
