I've bought 20 new cake stands for the business to hire out. Pretty 2 tier pink glass and I think they are going to look wonderful at vintage style tea parties and weddings.
I've decided to have a New Years Resolution afterall.......Make Time For Teatime
In the tradition of this resolution Cherub & I baked today some lovely fairy cakes....yummy

170g caster sugar
3 medium eggs from your chickens
1/2 t.spoon vanilla extract
150g self raising flour
1/2 t.spoon baking powder
2 tbl.spoons milk
Butter Icing
Sprinkles & all things yummy & pretty
Preheat oven to 180c/350f/gas 4.
Put the soft flour, sugar, beaten eggs & vanilla into a big bowl
Sift the flour & baking powder into the bowl
Add milk
Mix thoroughly to make smooth, thick cake batter
Spoon into paper cases, about half full
Bake for 12-15 minutes (you want the batter to spring back when touched)
Remove & leave to cool.
Decorate with all things yummy
Find your tea cups and pretty cake plates & enjoy
