I don't think it looks bad at all. The one I made for my sons birthday last year was WAY worse, and I still served it up to the whole party  :-)) Nobody really care as long as it tastes yum  ;)

Thank you everyone, you are all being too kind.

Kids love cake so its going, but will try and hde in a box so not nany adukts see it. :)

Love the idea of foil, too late now but that would have been easy.

I find I often need to use foil Hally particularly if I make one cake using ILB choc cake mixture and the same applied last week when I made the choc cake which I posted.  :)  :)

Hally I love your cake. It is obviously home made with love. It will mean so much more than a store bought one. I'll bet the kids adored it and the student teacher would have taken photos of it.

Of course she would have appreciated it Hally, how often does that sort of thing happen just out of the blue.  You brightened everyone's day today when you took it in - may your generosity be returned in many ways. I bet DS was so proud of his Mum.

Thank you everyone,
Yes she did take photos as I cringed.

Yes she really loved the cake and appreciated what I did.

She is getting married in December, we have all been invited to the church.
Ds really wants to go.
