Designer Handbag Workshop

June 30, 2010 By 2 Comments

Haute Couture comes to Lindy’s Cakes… in the form of handbags! This new workshop, designed by Lindy, was a ‘runway’ success today! Whilst we love our regular workshops, and there will always be themes that are old favourites, it is lovely to work in a new direction. And ‘fashion’ is definitely a new direction for Lindy. Edible handbags…food and fashion fusion…surely that’s the ultimate!

Lindy started the workshop, as… Continue reading

Cutwork Mini Cakes Workshop

June 4, 2010 By 2 Comments

If there’s one style that, to me at least, epitomises Lindy’s style it’s ‘cutwork’. The iconic ‘cutwork’ wonky cake is,  in my opinion, her finest example. Take this concept one step further… a mini ‘cutwork’ cake and voila you have something quite special indeed! I love little cakes. Dainty and pretty. Perfect for one or two… sometimes you just don’t want a big cake.  As we tighten our belts and… Continue reading
