Last year my aunt asked me to make a cake for her 40th Wedding Anniversary. I wanted to do something special for them so I went back to their early days. They met while Eileen was still training as a nurse and Steve was in the navy.
My inspiration was the famous photograph ” The Kiss ” taken in Times Square on VJ Day in 1945. Although I had used sugar paste icing to make flowers before my skills just yet weren’t up to a true re-creation….however I am still very proud of the cake I created. The bottom layer madeira and the top a rich chocolate cake
Mmmm yes, if you look closely you may see a salt and pepper shaker holding up the couple but these are the things that make an occasion more memorable!!
Well, if the chocolate cake is anything like the one you made for your Mam’s birthday, then I KNOW how amazing it tasted:-)
Looks brill Chaz, and welcome aboard!
Oh that is so well made Chaz! Amazing job!
