it's a 21st party.

A few weekends ago was my joint 21st party with my best friend/boyfriend and because I love baking so much I decided to bake a few treats for the guests. I baked jam donut cupcakes, red velvet cupcakes and a chocolate coffee layered cake (as per request by the birthday boy), but with a special twist (also requested by the birthday boy).

I was so proud of myself when I completed the cake as I only had one chance to get it right on the day (although I did practice the icing the week before, JUST IN CASE). It was so pretty that nobody cut it on the night, which was a good thing for us as we inhaled this monster the next morning ;)

The blue icing is just vanilla icing with one teaspoon of blue colouring. The same vanilla icing from my red velvet recipe ;)

I also learnt a very important as I made these cakes for the party - the correct ingredients + the correct amount of ingredients + a good oven makes a world of difference!
