WELCOME

Welcome to Cakes By Sammie. I have started this blog to keep a note & pictures of my new hobby. Everything I've learnt so far I've taught myself, along with a little help from one of May Clee Cadmans (of Masie Fantasie) books.
All photographs are taken by myself -I enjoy photographing the cakes as much as I do making (& eating) them.

Trying a handmade rose


So I was playing around and thought id make a handmade fondant rose. This was my 1st attempt at it, was quite pleased with the result! (icing and edges of rose have pink edible glitter on)

Chasing Butterflies


Pink sparkly buttercream on vanilla sponge with handmade edible butterflies. I think these would be fab for a wedding.

New piping bag!


Got a wider nozzle for my piping bag (eventually - I have no idea why these things are so hard to come across!) so thought Id try it out along with my new flower cutters & pink foil cases!

Pink Blossom


These would be perfect for any girlie party or wedding. Or even just with a cup of tea for an afternoon snack. Pretty handmade sugarpaste flowers on white fondant icing.
