It's mum and dad's diamond wedding tomorrow, so i had to make the cake.
First batch of 3 went to the hens, consistency wrong, too puddingy, fell apart, tasted great, but not suitable! Tasted great but impossible to hold together.
Second batch turned out ok, then came the icing.
First batch, mixed up in the kenwood and for some reason the beater despite being straight out of the washer, had a black powder on them, so i ended up with grey icing.....not a good time to discover no more icing sugar and nearest supermarket is 1 hour away.
Second lot worked ok, and have just finished them off, ready for tomorrow.
