I would like to say thank you to some of my readers for pestering me to write. I have actually been surprised at the number of people who I did not even know read my blog and noticed my absence over the last few months. Most of the time when I write an entry, I just assume no one will actually read it. I have always blogged for myself, but it is nice to know people actually like to see what I have been up too baking wise. So thank you!
It has been awhile since my last entry and a lot has changed in my life since then. I have had an amazing summer and had many new experiences (the good and the not so good), but such is life and these experiences are what it’s all about right?
Anyway, today I wanted to dedicate my first entry back to the new Mr & Mrs Wheeler. I had the pleasure of being involved in their big day and loved every minute of it and want to take this opportunity to wish them the best of luck with their life together.
My lovely friend Mel (the beautiful bride) asked me if I could assist Simon's (the handsome groom) mum with the Afternoon Tea. I provided ten dozen cupcakes, alongside the numerous loaf cakes his mum would be baking and as well as proper fruit wedding cake (which I was very excited for, as I love fruitcake). I was more than happy to provide my services and had the well-equipped kitchen down on the farm in Kent all to myself on the Friday to get on with the baking.
On the big day, there was a lot to be done including many meters of bunting to be hung. We did get there in the end, though I was still running around in wellies as guests started to arrive and only my make up done.
I took a few photos on the day to share, starting with the cupcakes...
