Double Birthdays

Leilani's Sailing Cake

Mat's Golf Course

My weekend was rather busy with having promised to make 2 cakes for work tomorrow.

I had to change the design plan for one of the cakes so it became rather plain since I didn't have enough time to bake another cake today, ganache it AND decorate it for tomorrow morning.

I was originally supposed to create one cake this weekend but I was asked by a colleague to bake a cake for another colleague's surprise morning tea tomorrow morning so that made it a rather busy day for me today.

Leilani loves to sail so I decided to create a cake with a yacht and put her initials on the spinnaker (or sail? I can't remember which is which after a long day!) and the golf themed cake is for Mat. The original cake for Mat was to be a boxing ring but I had a wee bit of a problem so I had to improvise. With the help of my sister-in-law, the creative wizard we had some coloured sugar for the 'grass' and I created the little golf ball and flag. If I had more time I would have put some details around the side of the cakes.
