Birthday cake disaster!

I have made a cake for Kyla's (my great granddaughter) birthday.
As I took the sponges out of the oven, I dropped the first one that cracked the sponge
As I tipped them out of the tins the second one broke
When I came to decorate it I had no Jellytots which is what she specifically asked for
Anyway it's surprising what you can do with some butter cream, icing and chocolate buttons

Hehe, I only dropped it onto the worktop, you can see where the butter cream sticks it together!

It's lovely and she will love it and you are a 'great' great great grandmother for making it!

And it beats hands down anything I could produce.

*last time I tried making a sponge it looked like an old flattened beret someone had chucked on the worktop!

Looks lovely!! she will adore it and YOU!!

Reminds me of a cake disaster I had once, I am normally very good with cakes Thanks to my Mum. Well I brought new tins and I COULD NOT get the cake out of them, ended up with cake pieces, so I crumbled it all up into a bowl, mixed in honey and made little balls, and rolled them in melted chocolate and let them set in the fridge!!

OH MY!!! my waistline didn't thank me for that
