I've been a bit slack with my blogs lately- mainly because I have had lots of cake orders and my son seems to be going through the terrible 2's a bit early!

The Father's Day Cupcake special went really well- especially considering the business is so new. I have had heaps of positive feedback which is really encouraging. 

I have also had some really fun birthday cakes to make lately as well with lots more coming up.

I'm including my Chocolate Ganache recipe this blog, because I had so many comments about how yummy it is. Its dead easy and you can substitute milk chocolate with dark or white. I will also include my basic Butter Cream recipe too, because it is so versatile and can be used on absolutely anything...plus its just as yummy!
