For Aonghus’ 11th Birthday (a Swallows and Amazons theme) I made him a ship cake. This was pretty simple, just a bowl cake covered in chocolate fingers and icing, with breadsticks and paper sails stuck on. I also made a few flags out of foil. This was the third cake I’d made (Finnian’s Pi symbo cake and Hamish’s aeroplane) so I was quite pleased with the result.
