First birthday of little fairy princess

Oh dear! I seem to have put aside blogging for a wee bit of time.

Perhaps, to get on a good start this year, I'm sharing one great milestone in our family. Our daughter turned one on September last year. Yes, time flies so quickly. She's now out and about, jumping and dancing just like any toddler's daily grinding days will be.

But this entry is all about another milestone -- that's for myself. What's more special with her birthday is her birthday cake. I baked and decorated her cake all from scratch. So proud of myself right now. hmmm...

Her birthday theme is fairy garden. I tried my best to come up with a cake that will copy a garden setting.

The cake is made up of two layers of chocolate cake and a vanilla cake layer in the middle. I used almond-flavoured buttercream. The decorations are mostly dried icing and fondant.

I have my fingers crossed to bake more. =)
