Thanks for popping in - I think I am winning on the Christmas Baking front as they say. I made a batch of sausage rolls and mince pies, some of which were gluten free. However, what I wanted to share with you today were the Christmas cakes I have just finished.

| All three family cakes |
and here they are individually:
 |
| 8" Royal Iced Cake |
 |
| 8" Sugarpaste Cake |
 |
| 7" sugarpaste cake |
Originally I was going to top the cakes with Nordic Gnomes, but having been feeling under the weather, I opted for something simple instead; and for once I decorated all the cakes the same. I had a production line going when I made them!
If I had been able to get out I probably would have bought some ribbon to go around them, but I am sure the family won't mind - let's face it you can't eat ribbon. I also cheated slightly this year, and instead of using cake drums, which would also have required ribbon, I used double thick thin boards at my daughter's suggestion.
