Ta da!
I know it isn't actually Christmas for another few days, but this is the only chance I shall have before the big day itself to post a picture of this year's cake, as promised. I have been away since Friday, and would normally decorate a cake like this on Christmas Eve, but as I'll only get back from Paris late on the 24 this year, I had to do it before I left. Since I had all of about four minutes to do so before I had to catch the train to Manchester, I will be expecting your kind forgiveness for the bad photography.
Recipe is here.
I told you it would be kitsch.

Have a delicious (x 3) Christmas everybody!
Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like not having any pants on!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your Christmas cookies btw Mrs. Humble. Stunning!
haha at Mrs Humble's comment! Love the Christmas Cake Mr P! Very festive. Every year I tell myself I am going to start decorating it earlier and do a fab job of it, but every year I leave it to the last minute and end up making it simple. Merry Christmas! (Paris, you lucky guy!)
ReplyDeleteI love the pink trees, I'm not normally a pink person, but those break all the rules.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
Ha super kitsch! It only works if you go all they way, wouldn't mind a purple pony too.
ReplyDeleteLove it.
It's perfection! I love it, and wouldn't change a thing:) Have a great Christmas Mr P!
ReplyDeletePerfect. If I credit you, would i be able to use one of these pics on my blog please?
ReplyDeletelove it! I need to find some pink trees for my christmas cake...
ReplyDeleteHaha, where did the little hearts go? The ones preserving their modesty? So strangely cute- I need some of these! I love the pink trees!
ReplyDeleteYour "puti" need some fondant diapers so they don't make a mess on your cake! Happy Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! Kitsch at it's finest. Kewpies seem to take their fashion styling from Donald Duck, odd that it's always for kids that characters have no pants.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!
ReplyDeletehappy holidays! i hope you have a great new year!
ReplyDeleteCute & looks delicious! Happy holidays, Mr P :)
ReplyDeleteThanks everybody for your comments! The little pantsless folk are safely packed away until next year now.
ReplyDelete:)
Oh so pretty! I wanted to do some sort of Christmas scene on top of a cake this year but I ran out of time.
ReplyDeleteIs there any way to resist clicking on a photo of anatomically correct kewpie doll cake toppers? I think not!
ReplyDeleteYou, sir, are stealing away my attention from important duties.
Or at least my pillow! gnite!
Marti - I think I'll leave that photo up forever, I love them. Christmas or no!
