Hi, Welcome To My Blog

I love various different types of crafts and have had a dabble at most over the years, some with greater success than others. I believe that apart from loving and giving, being creative is the next most important thing to do. There is something about being creative that taps into something deep within us that makes us feel good with the world. But then we were made in the image of God, God The Creator... so I guess being creative will be second nature to us if we allow. The problem is that many people will not have a go because they make the mistake of measuring themselves against others... and that is just not a good thing to do. I create because I like to create, not because I have to impress anyone else or be better than anyone else. I created this blog with a lot of help from my son-in-law, as a personal scrap book that I am happy to share with others if they wish to take a look.... Enjoy <><

Books of The Bible Cake

We were having a finger buffet to mark the occasion of our leader (Ann's) 'special' birthday... we aren't allowed to say which one!

Asked to provide food I had to offer to make a cake didn't I.. but then wondered how best to present it when it needed to be picked up fairly easily.

I came up with the idea of covering the top of a cake with marzipan and a variety of coloured icing, and then piped the name of a book of the Bible on each one.  I have to admit to choosing shorter names because there wasn't much room.

I wonder if people went for their favourite book or the colour they liked?

Each slice was placed inside a muffin case. I know it didn't fit properly, but at least gave some protection for each slice and something to pick the cake up with..  Happy Birthday Ann!
