Mum's Birthday Boxing Day

I spent a lot of time yesterday making a cake for my mum. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, and I must admit, it didn't end up looking how I had imagined it would, but I was quite impressed with the finished product.

It was a lemon and vanilla sponge with buttercream icing covered in fondant and I decorated it with handmade roses (made from fondant). Yummy!

Today we took my mum out for lunch seeing as we didn't spend much time with her on her actual birthday. It wasn't much, but we had a nice time :)
