Peppa Pig Cake

P1010732


It was lil A's best friends birthday today and I baked and decorated this peppa pig cake which is his favorite cartoon character for his party.This was my first attempt on Fondant cake and fondant figurine(peppa pig) ,I am glad that everybody liked the cake and appreciated my effort. I am pretty new in Cake decoration and lil A's birthday cake was my first attempt on cake decoration and ever since few of my friends encouraged me to take it up seriously and I thought of even attending a cake decorating course but the price of the courses were too expensive so I gave up the idea and thought of learning it myself. So here I am presenting my first fondant cake !! I made the peppa pig with fondant so it was edible and soft unlike the one which we make with Sugar paste,so kids at the party wanted a share of their favorite pig too.

Wishing you all a Happy Holi !!

I miss all the vibrant Holi festival that we had when we used to live in Pune,the whole flat used to come down and paint each other in colours and if somebody decides to stay home and not get messy they were wrong,the gang used to hunt such people ,ring the bell and pour colours on them...it was nothing but pure fun !

Lil A is down with chicken pox ,so I am pampering him with all the food that he likes , and this cheese omlette is one of his favourite,to make it more healthier I add some spinach and carrot aswell.

Ingredients

Egg - 2 nos
Onion- half of a small onion
Spinach - 1 full ( cereal) bowl

My first guest post ever..I m so thrilled !! Sobha is one of my close friend in virtual world with a wonderful blog Good Food.Those who havent been to her space please take a peek,She has a good collection of vegeterian recipes and eggless cakes ! Her eggless oats muffin, guacamole and Avacodo milk shake which I tried was simply delcious :)
Chocolate Mocha cake is now one of my favourite cake,Eventhough I made it for the first time for the guest post after that I have already tried 2 more times as we all love the flavour :)The taste of coffee is subtle in this but it kind of enhances the taste of plain chocolate cake.
