Feeling fruity?!

Today I will be jumping on the 'Handmade Monday' bandwagon. Started by Wendy at 1st Unique Gifts, it's about sharing what we've been up to, on a Monday! Seemples.

I couldn't let Valentine's Day go past without sharing some love, could I? So, here we go...

The brief? A cake with lots of berries and not much sugar or icing...



Valentine's Day Cake. I've no idea how the recipient reacted, but his secretary didn't know what to do with herself!


This isn't actually a Valentine's gift, but it is going to be sent packaged with lots of love from us country folk to my friend of almost twenty years who I don't see often enough.


Oh, and just to update you on the latest installment of the cakes by post saga, the muffins arrived (fanfare please)... IN PERFECT CONDITION! Muffins by post here I come, hooray!

    What a yummy looking cake!! Absolutely stunning and I'm sure the recipient loved it :)

    I love your Devon picture... looks lovely and very heartfelt too, I'm sure this would prove to be a popular line with people who have moved away from their home towns :)

    Wow, thanks Anna! So glad he liked it. The secretary was hilarious- she couldn't work out what to do with a delivery he wasn't expecting, then she was worried because he doesn't go into the office very often. I'm glad she managed to work it out in the end!!!
