Sorry Hally, here it is.  You step out for an hour or so and when you come back there are heaps of postings  ;)

Yes, it was a great effort Hally.  Now to get it to school in one piece - looks enough to feed the whole class.

I imagined something a lot different to that Hally - yes I would definitely take it to school. I am sure the kids will love it

Hally, anything made with lots of love ALWAYS tastes good.  You are a good sport posting your cake for all of us to see.  It looks terrific.

Hally it's lovely.  Please take it.  Have you ever seen a kid turn down the chance to eat cake ?  :D

It looks amazing and made me smile (in a good way I mean)! :) I think your student teacher will feel very special.

I used a tin like this and had the same problem - so I just pleated some tin foil around the base half to look like a silver cup cake wrapper. Voila, and no icing of sides required ;D
