In November, my parents’ friends were let down by their cake maker and I got asked around a week before if I’d be able to make something for them. I could do anything – their theme was poppies as they were getting married on Remembrance Day. This was the results of my labour:<\/p>\n

I spent most of the evenings in the run up to their wedding making things for the cake. Due to the last minute request, I had no time left to book any leave from work.\u00a0I ended up making over 100 cupcakes (red were vanilla and white were lemon). I made the poppy toppers by hand cutting out and shaping fondant, and topping with glitter.<\/p>\n

The top of the cake tower was a three layer vanilla sponge with jam and buttercream. It was not quite as neat as\u00a0I would have liked, but the fondant tore three times when I was trying to decorate it, and this was the best I could manage at 10pm the night before their wedding!<\/p>\n

It didn’t turn out too <\/em>bad though – and the bride and groom were very happy with the result:<\/p>\n
