Thank you for watching sir, I really think it's worth the extra effort to make both the icings yourself. You really can taste the difference.

Thanks Dani, I occasionally slip into full Yorkshire mode 😂

Again, sorry for the late delay. I would put the decorations on just before the cake is to be unveiled to your audience! Let the icing set and fully dry out then add the decor, especially if you are adding something like ribbons.

Hi May - sorry for the late reply, I really appreciate your interaction. I have never used a Kitchenaid stand mixer (Santa still didn't bring me one!) but I would guess it would actually be better and easier. Hope your cakes was a bit hit!

I waste very little. The almond icing scraps are still in the fridge - it lasts for a long time. Scraping bowls I do as fast as I can for the filming, but I try to get everything out.
