Mother's Day at our place + a book giveaway!

We wanted to treat our Mums over the weekend by doing what we love most: baking,
crafting and styling up a little Mother's Day brunch!


































































































We made some delicious tea cakes from the new book by celebrity cake maker Peggy Porschen; Boutique Baking! Peggy's new offering is a collection of recipes and decorating techniques for desserts served in her gorgeous pink London-based Cake Parlour (swoon!). We made the neopolitan bundt cake and the pink Victoria sponge... not a crumb left in sight!




























We love Peggy's new book so much that we had to share by giving a copy away to one lucky reader!  Simply leave us a comment below, even just pop in to say g'day, and we'll announce a random winner on the 22nd May 2012. Competition is open to Aussie and international readers. Good luck!



Cakes, printed menus and name tags by us
