40th Anniversary Cake
Having made Karen and David’s wedding cake it was lovely to hear from
them and receive an order to craft a 40th wedding anniversary cake.
The cake was for David’s parents who first met at a cricket match where his Dad
played and his Mum helped with the classic cricket teas. By carefully worded
questioning David managed to find out what his parents were wearing when they
met and these details along with some stealthily removed family photos enabled
me to create caricatures which conjured up the day they first met.
I recently
met Karen again and she told me that they managed to keep most of the items
from the picnic except the teapot which was sneakily eaten by one of the
younger guests!
This is the email they sent me:
“I just wanted to drop you a note to say a BIG thank you for the cake. Everyone loved it. We had a lovely day and the cake was the talking point!! Karen and David”
