She wanted a pink Dora cake.
I spent nearly 3 days scouring shops trying to find decent Dora cake-topper stuff.
Dear friend Bek came to the rescue with some Dora & Boots accessories.

thanks Jenna - the icing was out of the packet mix that the cake bit failed! but it was very yummy! we did all enjoy it. xx
Nothing better than a homemade birthday cake :) Oh, and I need to get me one of those giant cupcake tins!
The point is, Karen, your little princess wanted a Dora cake and you went out of your way to make it happen! Not all little princesses have a mummy that would try!! You are a fantastic mum ( in case you were questioning it!!!)
I bet you all had the best day anyway! Happy birthday Megan.
PS they tell me baking is all in the precision of following a recipe. I like freestyle cooking so it doesn't work for me. We can't all be Domestic Goddesses!
