Christmas presents

This Christmas, i love cake teamed up with Magnetic North to make some super cute presents for their clients. 

Each spangly gold box had almost everything you need to make i love cake's Christmas cupcakes - a very secret recipe (shhh), piping bag and nozzle, even spanglier cases, Christmassy sprinkles, chocolate...cinnamon sticks...the lot. What a lucky lot.

A Winter Wedding

Ooo Christmassy wedding cakes for Marie. I like these. I think these photos look a bit shabby but these cakes looked a real treat in all their silver and red finery. I just love those little sugar flowers too. They just seem to make the perfect little cake.

Christmas Eve yeah!

Actually it's not Christmas Eve at all - we're a little behind with these last few posts. Got a bit tangled up with Christmas and all that and suddenly it's 2009! Happy New Year!
Anyway, where was I. Here is our last batch of cupcakes all boxed up and ready to go. Finally phew!

A Glorious Christmas

These cakes were specially made for Glorious Creative to send to their clients as Christmas presents. They chose gold cases for some extra pazzaz.

Apologies for the tacky title on this post - whenever I tried to think of anything else it just kept springing back to mind. Terrible.

Christmas at Knutsford Market

Brrrrr!! It was a cold start to the weekend for i love cake. Wrapped in as many layers as we could manage without disabling ourselves, we set off for Knutsford Farmers Market (in the dark - eek) . It was a chilly old day but the sun shone and after a good few cups of tea we were ready for action.

This months earnings went on tea, tea....a nice hot cup of tea, a delicious pain au raisin from the bread stall and a most delicious indeed steak and ale pie, which I have just polished off with a dollop of mash and a big glass of wine (to keep out the cold of course).

Anyway aren't we meant to be talking about cakes?

Don't forget we will be at Piccadilly Gardens, Manchester next Friday and Saturday. Please come and keep us busy or we might just freeze to death!

i love cake loves Christmas!

Now we're not usually ones for celebrating Christmas in November but here in cakeland things are different. For one, a celebration of any kind is an excuse for new sprinkles. But more importantly you need to get your orders in before we run out of mini snowflakes.

i love cake have been experimenting with some new flavours to cheer you up this winter -

gingerbread, chocolate orange and mint choc chip. They're so tasty it seems a shame to say goodbye after Christmas!

On another note, we've had a change of heart when it comes to icing as you might have noticed. These yummy big fat swirls were made with our brand spanking new piping nozzle, and we think they look irresistable.
