Munchkin’s birthday isn’t for nine days, but her grandparents are here in Switzerland at the moment. So we decided to have a little party before the big one with friends next weekend. It just so happened to coincide with Australian Father’s Day, so we’ve had double the reason to celebrate!
I made a little gluten-free, organic, vanilla butter cake made with rapadura sugar and swiss meringue buttercream. Then I topped it with a Miffy plaque and candle I’d made out of modelling chocolate. Munchkin adores books and Miffy is currently one of her favourites.
For decoration I bought a couple of helium filled balloons and a cute little number one that were all anchored with some streamers.
So Munchkin, after her nap, was greeted with this… (along with four very excited family members)
She loved it!
After the prerequisite off-key singing, Munchkin was presented with her first ever piece of cake.
Devoured with almost no mess, I’m assuming this means it was liked!
Our little party was perfect and we’ve had a gorgeous day!
I’ve now got to get back to work for next weeks party!
Wow! As simple as it appears, the whole ensemble is strikingly beautiful to me.
