Plants vs Zombies: Fondant Toppers – It was after quite a bit of procrastination (that’s not like me at all 😉 ) that I finally got started on the fondant toppers for the Plants vs Zombies birthday cake. The plants were fun and fairly simple to make, but I only did the zombies head in the end. I get a bit nervous tackling […]
For the love of zombies! – Only a few more days to go until our Plants vs Zombies party. I’ve been busy catching up on preparations, having fallen way behind over the school holidays. You’d think I would have learned from last year and started earlier!

Jungle fondant cake toppers – A while ago I offered to make some fondant decorations for a friend to put on her daughters’ birthday cake. She told me her daughter loved jungle animals, so we went with that theme.
