There doesn't seem to be a thread where we post pictures of our home made cakes, so I thought I'd start one !
I call this my Karate cake.

People probably used to posting on food picture thread. Lots of cakes on there.

I don't really eat cakes very often so they're not something I cook.

I made this for my birthday. Pretty boring, but it was yummy -

And then these are my home made Woopie Pies (is that how you spell Woopoe Pie?!) although they don't look anything like proper Woopie Pies. Again, they were yummy -

They won't go any bigger than that

That was weird. Just as I was reading this I glanced at the TV and what was the 1st thing I saw? A VW campervan!

They were something I wanted to try, had made cake truffles in the past, (just left over cake mixed with chocolate ganache) this was left over cake scrunched up with a fork and mixed with buttercream. Put in the fridge to cool and put on a stick. Dipped in melted chocolate, as the cake is cool the chocolate sets fast, so quickly swirled it with a spoon.

These were the good ones, we made 8.

Agreed, Victoria's cupcakes look amazing.

Ohhh they look nice. What sauce have you drizzled on your icing, Victoria ? And is it buttercream or cream cheese frosting ?

It's buttercream and I stuck a nozzle on a Sainsburys Finest berry sauce bottle and drizzled!

You MADE those??!!! They're amazing! So consistent and professional-looking! Have you considered applying for The Great British Bake Off?
