My sister's Easter 30th!

So this Easter bank holiday weekend was taken over by my Sister's 30th celebrations. For someone who suggested she had no friends(!?), an impressive 49 people turned up to help her celebrate her departure from 'young life!' -  lol sorry just winding her up, she's my sister after all!
My sister attacking me whilst I was baking her cake & treats! :O)
As it was her birthday I made her some tasty treats!! Firstly a huge batch of Chocolate chewy morsels , a Blueberry zest cake with a twist ( added 100g blueberries & 100g raspberries), a three tier Blackout Cake which I made on a previous post but didn't give you the recipe :-o. And finally some ubber posh JELLIES!! I've been meaning to make some jellies for my blog considering it's in the title. They were spiced mulled wine jellies with 24 carat gold in them! Yes I suppose Lou's worth it :)

So here are a few photos from the celebrations and the yummy creations I made (I'll post the recipes in the next couple of posts).

Everything seemed to go down well. There was no choc muchies, Blackout cake or Lime drizzle cake by the end of the night. The Spiced white wine gold jellies didn't seem to get the same reaction as the rest...


My cousins compared them to 'Deep Heat' rather than wine flavor and as for Mr Nigel, well you can see his reaction below! Not quite the look I was hoping for?!
Hmmm, back to the drawing board I think. Don't worry I'm not one to give up!! The search begins for the best Jelly recipe I can find. If you know of any let me know.. please......

Hope you all enjoyed your Easter weekends too!

Jelly Teatowel!!


The other day, whilst at work, I received this mysterious small parcel (one I hadn't ordered myself!). One of our clients at work, who knows about my "Never Eat Wobbly Jelly" blog had sent me a teatowel with my logo on it!!

How cool is that!!!
Lacey, was out and about when she spotted it and said she just had to get for me. How nice is that :O)
Pete decided that it should go pride of place in a frame. So I've just got to decide what cake I should bake her to say thank you..... any ideas?

Logo Stamp arrived!



I had these made at 'Blade Rubber' which makes stamps to order, they've been about since 1993.
Here is their link http://www.bladerubberstamps.co.uk/
I emailed by design over on the Tuesday and the following day I had a call saying that it was ready to be collected!

Here is what it looks like:
