The 4 year celebration

The cake was picked out about 6 months ago - the Dolly Varden cake in the Women's Weekly. This involved the investment of a cake tin, as well as some careful cake planning by the cousins and Bronte. One of Bronte's birthday requests was a sleepover by the cousins - and they were invaluable in cake design and pass the parcel tasks and wrapping.

The cake! A winner in pink and purple with blue and silver beading and marshmallow flowers. The photos don't really capture how good it looked in my memory. Very much a winner all round.
