Christmas cake
« on: 18 December 2012, 11:43:02 »

My grandma always baked crimbo cake by her own hand untill she passed away and with my childish mind I often thought whether why she did have so special shape nails in the christmas time. They missed half moon form pieces from the middle of the nails on the central three fingers on her left hand. When I asked her just was smiling and warned me to eat the cake carefully as some overbaked piece of pasta can be there. Of course I was finding these continously... ;D ;D ;D small half moon shape pieces.  ;D ;D ;D

Good appetite.  ;)

Fingernails are not that bad. Imagine all the places a threepenny bit had been before you found it.

It's the bloody marzipan that's the problem. Yuck! But as longs as there's more icing than marzipan... I can live with it I suppose. ;)

Thankfully we don't have marzipan (for obvious reasons ::)) but, tbh, it never lasts long enough to get iced :-X ::)

Whatever it is... I didn't do it

I can't stand marzipan so SWMBO kindly rolls it as thin as possible before icing the cake :y :y
