Birthday Cake!!!

Of course there are lots of different flavours, shapes, colours and a billion other things that can differ in a birthday cake, but they all have one thing in common and that's that they involve cake (hopefully anyway!) so here is how i made my brothers birthday cake, which was cricket themed!

You Will Need:
150g of Self-Raising Flour
150g of Caster Sugar
150g of Stork
3 Eggs
 4 tsp of Vanilla Extract


Beat the sugar and eggs together in a large bowl

 Sieve the flour into the bowl

 Add the stork into the bowl

 Add the vanilla extract and mix all the ingredients until smooth

 Cook for 30 minutes at about 180c

 Take out the oven when golden brown

 Leave to cool

 Spread jam over the top of one of the sponges and level the other one out using a serrated knife

Mix icing sugar, water and green icing sugar to make the icing and then spread it evenly over the top of the cake. To make it smooth on the top dip a knife into a bowl of hot water and spread it over the top of the icing to make it shiny and smooth 

Now this is where you can do what you want really, but i made a cricket pitch, i used white candy sticks for wickets and a gobstopper for the cricket ball!
