My sister's boyfriend is a bit nuts about owls so I have decided to make some owl cake pops to go with the owl shaped birthday cake this year.  I found a guide on youtube and off I went to tescos to buy all the decorations.  To make these you will need chocolate cake, melted chocolate, chocolate buttons for the wings, circle shapes for the eyes and stars for the feet.  I also found some white chocolate shapes for the beak.

And here they are...
















We are all off to the pub tomorrow for a lovely Sunday lunch so I have made Curt an owl cake to go with the cake pops.  It took quite a while but I did cheat slightly by watching a youtube clip showing how to make this cake!

It has been quite a while since my last post (baby George might have something to do with that).  Today my sister and I made a two tier butter cake filled with buttercream and strawberry jam in between feeds and nappy changes!  Hands were washed I promise! 

We covered both tiers in fondant icing and leaves sprayed with pearl lustre.  And here is the finished product...





And another...
