Vanilla & Flaked Almond Birthday Cake

A returning customer requested a cake

for a gentleman who doesn't like fondant/sugarpaste.

She wanted a square Victoria Sponge,

filled with jam & buttercream

and with fresh cream on top.

But because of the weather being pretty humid

and the fact she had to drive it up to London

I was a bit worried the cream wouldn't

travel well,

so we agreed that I would cover the cake in buttercream
with a high content of cream mixed through

and the sides were covered in flaked almonds.

Then if she desired, she could add a little fresh cream

when she arrived at destination.

Whilst putting the flaked almonds on the sides of the cake

I felt it looked a bit messy,

so I desided to place them on one by one

which has given this beautiful and neat effect.

As for the plaque,

it can be quite hard to design something for a man who you know

nothing about!

So I added a few ornate curlycues for decoration

just to give it a special look for his 70th Birthday.

The client loved it when she collected it

and said that I always go that extra mile with my work!
What a lovely thing to say!
