Austin Healey and not a car crash!!!

The Austin Healey Cake

This Austin Healey cake was my first attempt at any sort of decorated cake and was made for a friends birthday.  I was not really sure what it would turn out like but I impressed myself and certainly Peter who I think thought he'd come home to more of a car crash than the above!!!

I learnt a lot whilst making this cake and one of the most annoying things was that I couldn't find silver icing anywhere so I had to paint all the silver bits with edible paint.  So if anyone out there knows where to buy it please let me know.

I'm back to baking cupcakes today ready for Chipping Show at the weekend.  If you are planning on a day out please pop in and see me. :)
