Whoop, whoop, yes me and Linda were off again to the lovely Slattery's for a nosey at all the masterpieces they have on show and for a birthday/working lunch for me.
Once we managed to find a parking space (which is somewhere where we shouldn't have technically parked but hey ho), we made our way to the window of the
Cake shop. There to greet us were these lovely creations displayed in the window.
As the weather was a little cold, we made our way inside to the next display; here, we found an array of designs to suit all requirements.
Firstly was this cat in a basket, I cannot believe how lifelike the cat is, it's happily snuggled up in the basket.
Next were your simple and effective birthday cakes, just showing small amounts of celebration but definitely enough decoration to make an impact. I especially love the present one; it reminds me of the one I fell out with a couple of Christmas's ago.
This cake reminds me of one Buddy did in Cake Boss, it's a lovely fun-filled Christening or Baby shower cake and isn't actually that hard to re-create. I love the toes on this one.
We then moved onto similar themed Christening/Baby shower cakes in different designs. I adore the shower piece on the baby bath one it's fabulous, I think the baby is adorable.
We then spot the Princess Leia Minion cake which is absolutely fantastic, Linda then asks me if the minions are starring in Star Wars to which I giggle and reply no, I can see the confusion on her face as she's trying to work out why the minion is dressed as Princess Leia, after a few minute discussion she finally susses out that somebody has come up with the creation to blend the two together. We have a good giggle about it.
I then spot these wedding cake; they are straightforward in design but very elegant by the same token. They just scream 'Class' to me.
We then move over to the Man cake section and come across these beauties. The Watch one on the top shelf looks really heavy.
Now we move onto more tiered variety wedding cakes that include chocolate...
The below 4 tier wedding cake reminds me of a Princess Dress, and the Valentine cupid cake looks amazing. I showed the picture of the Valentine Cake to my Dad, and he thought they sculpted each cherub individually. I then let him in on my insider knowledge that they are just made with moulds and not hand carved as he had previously thought.
In the middle of all these wedding cakes is the naked wedding cake with the fruit on, I've been looking to make one of these for a while albeit on a smaller scale so when I get a moment, I will definitely have a go.
I so want this bubble cake; it's fab!
