Get thee to Ikea . . .
. . .and snap up one of their fabulous glass DOMED cake stands. Indispensable if you are afflicted with cats that sniff (and lick) cakes. The varmints always jump up if they catch a whiff of butter icing. Blee! This brings the number of cake stands in this house to five. Actually, I can justify this purchase totally as it has already done a good job of keeping Roland's birthday cake safe last weekend. His lemon cake turned out a bit blobby but tasted very nice.
Have a good Easter everyone and I hope the Easter bunny is good to you!






Happy Easter to you and your family. Ikea is just a bit too far for me to nip to at the moment but I want one of those cake stands now!!!

Varmints! Spoken like a true Mr McGregor...only with less vegetables. The cake dome looks fantastic.

Hi! Just found your blog. Wow! What lovely things you make. So pretty! I just finished drooling over your website, making a mental wishlist and downloading your Pixie Pets for my little one to color (and one for me). Finding you just made my night!
