when bad things happen to good cakes

To be hereby named the 'lapse in judgement' cake.

It is in fact the very easy orange cake (one of my favourites), iced and also filled with good old butter cream (not the white chocolate icing I've made previously) and due to time pressures, iced and filled while still warm (oops) and transported with icing not set (oops again.)

Hence lopsided and wonky and truly not that attractive.

Luckily it wasn't really about appearances.

It was about this dude's birthday:

Kevin, who makes up half of a couple who are some of our best friends and also Henry's godparents.

  Henry counted out the candles. Kevin told him he was turning seven which Henry thought was about right, but added a couple of extras for good measure. 

And really, who cares what cake looks like?

Nope, me neither.

Hip hooray!
