Well I’m having a fabulous rainy Wednesday prepping the wedding cakes I made yesterday. I have used 63 eggs and am too scared to calculate how much the total amount of cake weighs. I have foraged for ingredients, baked, shaped, buttercreamed and marzipaned the cakes over the last 48 hours. So far so good.

Making a cake this big is surprisingly physical, I shall be incredibly beefy by the time I am finished.

Now for icing, assembling and decoration…. but maybe a nap first.
