Week Eighteen

This week has given me so many reasons to make a cake. Daughter ran her first half marathon in a brilliant time of 1.51, eldest son took off on his life experience to South America and beyond, and it was mothers day!
So I went with Emmas choice from this months Cuisine magazine and called it 'Marathon Farewell Mothers Cake'.
Not very original really is it?
It tastes quite lovely really, served with blackcurrent couli and marscapone.
We awoke this morning to a text from Adam in Miami on his way to Ecuador and is bag is still in Washington! Ha brilliant! He has been flying since leaving here on Saturday and should get to final destination tea time tonight our time.
Back to the cake....that is pear quarters on the top of the cake and the main flavour is almonds.

  2. From Christine - Thanks for the fantastic morning tea - creatively presented by Emma and very much enjoyed by the whole team at Carter Price Rennie, who are more than willing to share future offerings.

  3. I am glad you put a photo of the piece of cake with the cake as the one alone looked very supersized. Is it too late? Is then any left now or did the PR people each it all?
