cake and crockery clutter

Just a quick post of a vanilla chai latte cake I baked for a friend this week. I've baked it before (see post here) but altered the quantities to make a 6 inch sandwich cake. It was too tiny and cute not to photograph.


It was one of those quickly-plonk-the-cake-down-and-photograph-before-rushing-out situations which actually worked out really well. I thought it looked pretty surrounded by all my crockery clutter on the dresser.


I don't think I'll ever get tired of that shade of green.

    It does look very pretty and sounds delicious too. I'm still envious of your lovely green dresser.

      Thanks CC! I think the best thing about it is that it gives an instant pretty backdrop for photos. I don't have to bother faffing about ironing tablecloths anymore if I don't want to!

    This is so pretty - I love the styling! At the moment at cookery school we make our tarts in a 6inch tin and they make every slice so cute and dinky so I'd love to use them to make a cake.

      I was worried I wouldn't get much use from 6 inch tins but I've actually used them a few times. They make every cake look ridiculously cute. May have to try tarts in them next!

      Thanks Carly! I've been wanting a new banner design for ages and I'm really pleased with this one. Think it'll stick around for a while :)
