Christmas Cakes


The baking of our Christmas cakes has already started, so they have plenty of time to mature and be at their best for Christmas. Alice & I spent today taking the iced cakes from the kitchen and finishing the decoration with hand glittered stars, as well as tying ribbons and tinsel around them. Next we greaseproof and bubble wrap them for protection. I love this sort of work, as each is done by hand its a calming process if a little odd when its July and roasting outside - the Christmas smells come early here!
