On Saturday I threw a combined birthday slash cake party for myself and Miss James. My idea was to bake a whole lot of cake and then have a bunch of friends over to eat a whole lot of cake. So that’s exactly what I did, I baked for a day and half straight and I tried my damndest to fill our dinning room table with as many icing covered goodies as possible.

I managed to make a Strawberry Cheesecake, an Apple and Pear cake, a Red Velvet cake, Oreo cupcakes, Boston Cream cupcakes, a Brooklyn Blackout cake and a dark Lindt Chocolate cake. I actually baked the Red Velvet twice because I wasn’t happy with the first one. So I think it’s safe to say that I baked my behind off, but it was worth it because it was a lovely afternoon spent with lovely people and I’m happy to report that there were no sugar coma casualties on the day, but I’m almost positive that I may have awakened diabetes in some people.

Today is my dad’s birthday and him and my mom arrived yesterday from Zimbabwe to spend a few days with me in JHB. Last night I decided to bake him a chocolate cake for his birthday. He hasn’t seen it yet, I hid it away because I knew if he saw it last night he would want to cut into it right then and there. My dad is just like me when it comes to cake, he can’t ever resist. Ha.

So yesterday my friend Davis had his birthday party at George Lea park. as a present I baked him an extravagancer of awesomeness and future toothache. The cake you see before you was a chocolate/vanilla/caramel treat/whipped cream/buttermilk chocolate icing/chomp/smartie tower of awkwardness, that tasted like a very super sweet cake, I guess ha. We lit the flag and sung happy birthday to davis and as we finished, the inevitable cake fight broke out. Cake faces all around. Fun.

PS: there were more than 4 of us at the party, in case you were wondering.
