The Cake and Bake show 2014

Last weekend my dad and I took a trip up to London to visit The Cake and Bake show. This is an exhibition that happens every year, in which there are hundreds of stalls, and also demonstrations by celebrity chefs. As I am an avid baker this was a very exciting and fun afternoon! There were many amazing cake designs, of all different themes as well as tasters (yum!) at many of the food stalls, ranging from bread to fudge.

We also got a chance to watch Rosmary Shrager's demonstration, which was to say the least hilarious because of her fun, bossy nature, as well as Rachel Khoo, Frances Quinn and Jo Wheatley. Although, to my disappointment this years contestants of The Great British Bake off attended the show the day after.

To top it all off this year there was a stand dedicated to the TV show Cake Boss, which I absolutely love. If you have never seen the show (you should!), it's about a bakery in New York owned by an Italian American man called Buddy Valastro. At this bakery they produce some of the most amazing cake designs, such as a mechanical bull cake, which is what inspired me to have a go at challenging my cake decorating skills earlier this year.

Thank you for reading! :)
