I iced Jon's birthday cake this morning, he decided he'd rather have pudding at Iglu than a cake on his actual birthday. This is the Birthday Custard Sponge from Nigella Lawson's Feast
. The Magimix made the whole process very easy and I produced my best buttercream ever. Along with the chocolate icing on top, it's very thick and naughty. I've had one slice and no IBS problems so it's even more of a winner.
Here are all the birthday cakes I've made Jon since we've been together:
