2013 so far!

A black and white theme at The Vintage Wedding fayre in Dublin, we were really loving the 'nude' wedding cake that has been trending on Pinterest!
the ribbon wedding cake is the wedding cake of 2013

Here are a few photo's of what we've been up to so far, I know the blog has been kicked to the side, so I am trying to be a little more pro active about posting!  Even if it's just a few pictures and a few words, with a recipe...  I have had a lot of response to the Hidden Costs blog post which you can read here .
And people are wanting a Hidden Costs part 2,  so keep an eye out for that, it will be a pretty detailed post since I've had 3 more years under my belt... In the meantime I hope you like some of these pictures and hopefully we will be seeing you in the cafe or bakery!
