A New Year!

We've been seriously busy at The Boho Kitchen over the last few months. There's lots of news!
First thing first. Valentine's is upon us.

Cake ball truffles? We've got 'em.
Delicious and beautiful cakes? Yes.
Heart shaped and decorated cookies? Right here.
CUPCAKES? Of course!

Also, we've got a promotion going at the moment on OUR FACEBOOK FAN PAGE to win a dozen cupcakes or a dozen cookies so enter today!


TBK has teamed up with Niamh Doherty of The Loving Spoonful! She's a swell gal and I think you'll agree! She'll be bringing lovely lemon squares, heart warming soups and delicious savory items to the next The Boho Kitchen stall near you! We've got a project in the works as well that will bring afternoon tea out of the big expensive hotels and right into your location of choice! More on that to come.

Next little bit of news is that I'm engaged! I know what you are thinking, she's already got two kids isn't she married already? No, we've been thus far living in sin but have finally set a date for the big day. We'll be getting married on May 13th, 2011-- SO, unfortunately brides and grooms who might be interested in getting me to make them delicious cupcakes or cakes for their weddings will be disappointed to know I'll be unavailable for that weekend.

NOW:

We've been set up the last two Sundays from 11pm-4pm at the indoor market in Clonmel. Where? That's right. There is an amazing indoor market and car boot sale just minutes outside Clonmel. It's incredibly well signposted by the amazing organizer Tara and its super easy to find. Even if you don't drive buses run regularly throughout the day! Just check the website. Come on down and check out all the crafters, the food and if you want-- bring along some of your unwanted items to set up at the car boot!

A traditional, simple wedding cake

Firstly, sorry for the lack of recipes lately. I promise some pancakes this week. I found the best buttermilk pancake recipe to make for breakfast this morning. You see, my firstborn bouncing baby girl turned 3 today. Yes, 3. I'll refrain from saying "terrible three" even though the last few weeks have given some truth to that nickname. Two was easy. However, all the things that make three hard are what make three beautiful, and what make Jane a funny, clever, and intelligent individual.

Anywho, enough about my personal life, on to what I know you care about most. Cake.
I recently did three cakes and an additional individual gluten free cake for a friend's boyfriend's brother's wedding (get that?). I didn't place the cake on the stand but did deliver to the mother of the groom in the beautiful Maryborough House in Douglas, Cork.

I will always take wedding cake orders. I don't do cakes for a flawless appearance-- before that comes out wrong, I only mean to warn off brides would would wish to purchase a flawless, expensive, but tasteless cake easily carved into a perfect block. It's important to be that my cakes are delicious and moist. My wedding cakes are delicious and reasonably priced.

Topper was provided by the bride and groom.






The top tier was chocolate, the middle vanilla and the larger bottom cake was a traditional fruit cake. All but the fruit cake were layered with buttercream and then crumbcoated in white chocolate ganache. The fruit cake was covered in almond paste and all cakes had a final layer of marshmallow fondant.
Each cake is wrapped in ribbon chosen by the client with flat bows and topped with handmade ribbon roses provided by me and placed on the cake by the client.
