Last weekend I attended my first ever Clandestine Cake Club (CCC). I joined 2 London clubs for a while but never made it due to other commitments. So when I moved to my new place, I decided to see if there was one near me. In fact there were 2 nearby but one was due to meet in a few weeks so I quickly signed up. The theme was "Spring Fling" and there were 12 amazing cakes on display. The cakes were Lemon cream, coconut and lime, orange and almond, springtime on Madeira, citrus layer cake with pastel sprinkles, Lavender and Lemon, Spring bunny carrot cake, orange daffodil almond cake, violet festival cake, chocolate mini egg cake, spring flowers cake, orange and lemon layer cake with limoncello frosting. It was a very enjoyable morning of tea, cake and chat. We also got to take cake home which meant I could sample all the cakes :) I can't wait for the next cake club!

ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a mixed citrus cake and think the layers look great. I am not a fan of exact precision, as long as the taste is there, I am happy!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you agree with me on precision! I do always admire those perfect cakes and think why can't mine turn out like that!
DeleteClandestine Cake Club always sounds so much fun! Love the idea of three different flavours of cake with complimentary colours and your frosting looks lovely.
