Shop til you drop for Telford – Last little reminder
Shopping is often a last minute kind of thing and certainly it’s no exception here at Lindy’s Cakes with the BSG International Sugarcraft Exhibition 2012 at Telford looming. The van is ready to load and we’re as always happy to bring you up whatever you may need. That way, you won’t have postage costs and we can also get to have a chat!
Whether it’s a sugarcraft spacer or a particular stencil or a cutter you’re after, let us know by 2.30pm today so we can get it from our shelves and bring it to you personally.

Cake inspiration
Also it’s worth knowing that at Telford you can buy your tickets on the door and we’ve made sure that there is as much as we can bring for all you last-minuters who may just have managed to escape and see us on the day!
Happy Shopping!

Flagging it up …! Lindy’s Cakes flag cutters and stencils
Fabulous flags and beautiful bunting! Just as Her Majesty would launch a ship, Lindy is launching her new flag cutters to complement her range of Union Jack flag stencils. As much as we will be adorning our jubilee celebrations, Olympic supporter’s parties, summer birthday parties and garden party get-togethers with flags and bunting, it is great to be able to put them on our cakes and cookies.

We’re counting down to the BSG International Sugarcraft Exhibtion 2012, Telford. Only four more sleeps to go and we’ll be there!

Edible sugar buttons perfect for vintage style cakes
What is the secret of a successful sugarcraft design? There’s certainly no set formula but design is not just something that catches the eye but also that pulls on the invisible, very personal soul strings of our memory … and so it is with buttons.
Do you remember twiddling the buttons on your childhood clothes (perhaps you remember your mother telling you not to!), or sifting through your granny’s… Continue reading

Lindy’s Gorgeous Chocolate Ganache Recipe
Recently I blogged about my Chocolate and Red Wine cupcakes – a true wonder food, if ever there was one! I topped those divine little creations with my yummy-scrummy-in-my-tummy-chocolate ganache that I have used many times before, on my sublime Animal Print cupcakes or these elegant Zen Garden cupcakes, for example.
Lindy's Chocolate Ganache is Zen!

Cake Couture – a designer handbag cake carving class with Lindy
Ah the handbag… such a statement piece… the accessory that defines your style. Do you tote… or are you slouchy (me)… do you like a clutch… or a simple shopper (Lindy) classic brown or black leather (me – always) or something colourful (Lindy) green leather (Jane).
MNO (money no object) what handbag would you buy? Valentino (Lindy)… Chanel perhaps… Vivienne Westwood (Jane)… Prada… or perhaps something a little less… Continue reading
Hungry Teenagers….try this Mary Berry Muesli Cookie Recipe
Do you, like me, have teenagers in the house? Are you always hearing “is there anything to eat?”. If so I may have a solution. Mary Berry’s Muesli Cookies from her Ultimate Cake Book. This is a recipe I use if there isn’t “anything to eat”. They are great little cakey/biscuits that fill a little gap when the children come in from school, and are really easy
