could you make a cake you don't like? Or trust yourself to have a tiny slice and no more? What ever you do send and left over cake (if there is any) away with the birthday girl/ boy! And good luck.
Have cheated and bought scones, clotted cream and jam. Tea and scones. I do love them, but easier to resist than a cake, plus easier than cooking a nicecake, that I know I will want to eat!
I'm glad I can't bake, but I have ordered my sister a beautiful bouquet cake made of cupcakes, that look like roses and gerberas wrapped up like a bouquet of flowers and bottle nice wine. Pity I can't have any.
I'm at a 21st tea tomorrow with haribo cake. I know I will struggle and the birthday boy will get the hump if I don't have a piece of cake so might go for just one piece instead of half of the cake like I normally would.
