Covent Garden Night Market. 21 August 2008. And some other cakes baked in between market stalls…
Everyone has been very sweet about my cakes and I am encouraged by all the kind words I have had in the past week (Thank you to Trusted Places, Living to Eat, A Slice of Cherry Pie, Eat Like a Girl and I Heart Cupcakes). My second time round at the market I was slightly more prepared – and as it was a Thursday it was a bit more relaxed – especially as I was helped by Gemma, her lovely husband Jamie (the amazing creator of my website) and Victor (who is always wonderful) so I got to wander a little bit – and chat with Choc Star and eat white chocolate and chilli ice cream.
The chocolate mud cake was hugely popular – and it seems I can’t make enough mini cupcakes to last the night. I was then up with the sun on Friday morning to bake 48 cupcakes and a birthday cake for Monique – to go with the 60 biscuits (Shaped like Bichon frise dogs, hairdryers, scissors and the number 21) And mid-week 70 butterfly cakes – without paper cases – for a TV ad for the Daily Mirror.
