Beautiful butterflies

A few months ago I had the pleasure of making a wedding cake for one of my all-time favourite people. She was having a sci-fi-geek-butterfly theme. We went for simple and elegant for the main cake. Flavours included simple sponge with jam, lemon drizzle and toffee cake.

(I do apologise for the backgrounds in these photos - I didn't get chance to give them a proper photo shoot before they made their way down to London, but better photos are on their way.)

She also wanted a surprise grooms cake for her new hubby, so we incorporated Star Wars and Lego. Chocolate and toffee cakes layered together with toffee sauce. Yum. 

St. Catherine's Cakes

I'm about 2 years late posting this, but better late than never! I made these cupcakes for the St. Catherine's 'yellow fate' a few years back, with all proceeds going to the hospice. 

I think I made these the night of Eurovision, so the kitchen was full of the smells of fresh cake, and the sounds of terrible European pop. Good times.

Please 'like' St. Catherine's hospice on Facebook, and donate what you can. They are an amazing organisation who get a lot of their funding from public donations, and they help so many wonderful people. 

Hello again, it's been a while

Hello again, cake fans. I've been on somewhat of a hiatus for the past few years, but I am coming back slowly.

As anyone that knows me will tell you, I've been through some pretty sad times. My wonderful Mum, and kitchen helper, very sadly passed away 2 years ago. She had a nasty battle with breast cancer and eventually lost. She put up a bloody good fight though, and I miss her every day.

She was with me for every cake, was always giving me good ideas, solving problems and helping me with deliveries. She was my cake-rock.

So for 2 years I haven't been baking much. I've been getting on with my life.

 It's hard when you lose your partner in crime.

With the help of my amazing family and friends, I have been slowly building back up my cake-confidence. I've even moved into wedding cakes! So without further a do, welcome back to Frostylocks 2.0. I've changed some things around, please have a look around and leave some comments. 

Thank you for all your continued support,

Lovely Birthday Cupcakes

Very simple post today. Some lovely birthday cupcakes made for a friend. Colour-coded, strawberry pink, mint green, lemon yellow.

I think mint green makes a great looking cupcake!

Another birthday explosion

So it's the big 30. Everyone needs an explosion of stars on their thirtieth, right? 

Cakes and explosions go so well together...

Oh, yeah, there was an explosion at the nearby glitter factory.

Kitty cake

My fella's sister turned 18 recently, and loves anything to do with cats, so a cat cake was the only way to go... Meow!

Cute Christening

I was asked to do a christening cake with a lovely girly theme. So of course only pink and lemon would be fitting!

Some details for you
