Royal Wedding

We all love a good knees up and next weekend will be no exception!
Prince William and Catherine Middleton will finally be tying the knot here in London and we will be reaching for our Union Jack flags and having a tea party.

What will you be doing on the big day? Let us know!

Preparations are under way for the big day near Buckingham Palace



On the day they announced their engagement.

The Royal kitchens have been busy preparing for the wedding breakfast and functions that day.



Fiona Cairns has the task of creating the Royal Wedding Cake.
McVities (of biscuit fame) are also creating a special chocolate cake which 
was commissioned by Prince William.



We wish both of them much happiness and a glorious day on April 29th!

POP bakery

We have fallen in love with POP bakery based in North West London.



Clare O'Connell, POP founder, is a genius!



POPS are small round chocolate cakes on lollipop sticks which are then dipped in icing and decorated however you like!








Just a small selection of the creative POPs that Clare and her team has on offer.

Check out her website - www.popbakery.co.uk

Clare and all at POP - we salute you!
