Sorry :-( but it really was a party LOL.<br />Looks amazing.<br />I also am starting to realise what it is nice to wake up to, so making more of an effort with tidying before bedtime, to start the day in a nice way. We don't have ANY toy boxes though so I really really need to sort that out!<br />The party looks fabulous and your cake is a great idea.<br />Love,<br />Liska xx New Mum Onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14285584922202683960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692517788030253147.post-75083115659737117452012-12-09T18:52:04.982+02:002012-12-09T18:52:04.982+02:00Thanks Jazzy, we enjoyed it.

I just did this to have a cake for the children. They loved it because of the sugar, the chocolate spread and the marshmellows, but I wouldn't serve it to adults.
