Day Twenty Two

I was aiming for understated simplicity and elegance...
 
 
In other words... what is the least amount of time and effort I can expend on decorating the Christmas cake.

 
I don't mind which version you believe...I was just happy to have got it done before Christmas Eve. Must go now... wine and dancing beckon... Louis and a show dance... I can't wait!

  2. Been following along, you're nearly there now. Less is definitely more when it comes to icing, this looks very classy and I'm sure it will taste delish!

  4. Stunning cake! I usually go for a sort of frosty random jagged kinda look...(and as for the cake, ha ha). I haven't even made a cake this year - first cake fail in nearly 20 years!

  5. Gina, the cake is splendid, and I know you are having fun dancing even as I type.

    Christmas celebrations aren't just baking...parties are so much fun, and let's not forget the hushed splendor of a neighborhood church service.

  7. If I could apply icing that neatly I'd go for simple elegance every time too. As it is, my lot are getting a clementine cake, gloriously unadorned.

    And as soon as Lewis appeared sans shirt, I knew Flavia had won it for them!

  8. That is a beautiful cake Gina. I'm sure it will taste as delicious as it looks! What a great Strictly evening eh? Any one of the three could have taken it, they were so good, but I had a feeling that the glory days of the summer Olympics would roll on through the dancing and make 2012 a year to remember for all sportspeople.
