'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Gwyneth + Peppa = BFF's

  Gwen turned 3 this year!  To celebrate, Tamsin, (her fantastic mom and my good friend) threw her a Peppa Pig party. Gwen loves Peppa and we decided to create a cake reminiscent of the hot air balloon episode.  The top tier is butter cake with fresh raspberry puree and lemon curd in alternating layers topped with a bit of cream cheese frosting.  The bottom tier is dark chocolate cake with alternating layers of chocolate ganache and raspberry puree.  (Gwen has very adult taste buds.)  Check out all of the adorable party favors and if you'd like to see more of Tamsin and her fantastic party/life ideas look up her blog - Project Project on her website.  www.tamsinnorth.com


Gwen prepares for the big moment.  What will she wish?

Peppa and her little friends love mini pizzas.

The happy sun on the back of the cake.

Maybe you haven't noticed but there are little chocolate ganache mud puddles around the side of the cake because mud puddles are important in Peppa's world.
