This week my brother turned the ripe old age of 40 and my sister-in-law asked if I would make a cake to mark the day.
He decided he didn't want a party so it was just cake and candles with family on Wednesday evening after work. As I'm incredibly busy at work these days, I didn't have time for elaborate decoration. I've been looking for an opportunity to make an Explosion Parcel Cake for some time, so this was the perfect occasion.
Knowing I wasn't going to make it home in time to join the celebrations, I dropped the cake over to my sister-in-law on Tuesday night. I was delighted to hear that it got the desired WOW reaction the next morning from my nieces and nephew and let's face it, the cake was really made with them in mind (sorry T.J.)!
My brother was delighted with the cake too, but wasn't very pleased with the 'old man' reference on the side of the board.
A great cake for a fantastic brother. Happy Birthday T.J.
