My youngest daughter loves animals and she has a true passion for cats. So, this year, she chose to have a Kitty Cat party to celebrate her 5th birthday. I had seen some Playful Kitten Cakes around the web before and I immediately decided to try my hands at one, as they perfectly fitted the…
Troll Cookies
Today’s post is about turning a failure into a success story. I had seen some beautiful cookies on Pinterest that looked just like snowballs. They were covered in icing sugar, which gave the illusion of fresh snow. So, I had no doubt that I wanted to make them for my daughter’s Frozen party and they…
Frozen Cake
Like all little girls her age, Victoria has a fascination with princess stories and the latest Disney movie is no exception. She fell in love with Frozen (and so did her little sister)… movie, songs, costumes… everything. She knows parts of it by heart, I am not kidding! So for her 7th birthday party, she…
Olaf Yogurt Cake
Here goes the first of the 2 Frozen themed cakes I made for Victoria’s 7th birthday. She took this one to school to celebrate with her friends. The base is a simple eggless yogurt cake: quick and delicious! I love how it turned out. It looked impressive (people were asking where we had bought it…
MIFFY CHOCOLATE COOKIES
I made these cookies for my daughter’s 4th birthday party. If you follow this blog, you will already know that the theme was Miffy, the little bunny. I made some Mini Carrot Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting, some Miffys/Bunny Marshmallow Pops, a Miffy Cake and these cookies. They were quite successful and they were all gone…
MIFFY CAKE
My little Georgia loves Miffy. She has had a Miffy doll since she ws very little and has never separated from it. She sleeps with it and takes it everywhere she goes… it even came with us to Tahiti! So when I asked her what cake she wanted for her 4th birthday party she had…
TINKERBELL CAKE
My eldest daughter Victoria loves Tinkerbell… she has all 4 movies and watches them endlessly together with her little sister. They sit together on the couch, under a blanket and watch these movies with great pleasure. When the time to choose her birthday cake came, she requested a “Tinky Cake”. I immediately decided to make…

CHOCOLATE COOKIES WITH ORANGE AND MINT GLAZE
A little while ago, my friend Diane from Muppys asked me if I wanted to take part to this year’s Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap. I checked it out and immediately said yes. The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap brings together food bloggers from around the world in a big cookie swap: you sign up, receive…
PEPPA PIG CAKE
My little Georgia is in the Peppa Pig phase… she adores it and would watch it all day long on TV if I let her… So choosing a theme for her 3rd birthday party was quite easy! I immediately decided to make a fondant cake with an image of Peppa Pig on the top. I…
THE LITTLE MERMAID FONDANT CAKE
As I am sure you have noticed, my eldest daughter loves The Little Mermaid so she requested an “Ariel cake” for her 5th birthday party. I must admit, I was a bit worried about it as making a human form out of fondant is not as easy as making an animal… in fact, it could…
THE LITTLE MERMAID YOGURT CAKE
Today is my eldest daughter’s 5th birthday. I cannot believe it’s already been 5 years since I first held her in my arms… she was so small! And now she’s growing to be a beautiful and sweet girl. I will be very busy in the next few days as we will be celebrating her birthday…
BABY SHOWER SHORTBREAD COOKIES
I made these shortbread cookies for a friend’s baby shower. Her baby (a girl!) is due anytime when I write this and we can’t wait to welcome her in our little circle of friends. The baby shower colours were pink and yellow, so I decided to make some ducks, some baby clothes and bottles in…
