Looking for inspiration for The Lounge Bake Off Competition at Picnic in the Park this weekend? The theme this year is Fairy Tales.
I came across this Jewelled Princess Castle Cake in one of our library books. Is this technically cheating as I found it in this amazing book called No Bake Baking? It’s just that I know the esteemed female judge and I wouldn’t want any confusion!

Lego club will be on as usual today but we won't have our fabulous volunteer Joey helping out. He is probably going to be very busy with his last minute wedding preparations!
