It's dear's birthday! Happy Birthday dear!!! Alright, this is not this post's about...

Let's proceed to cake-baking. =)

Sponge cake mix - Blueberry cake.

Ingredients: 250 gm Vanilla sponge mix 250gm Egg 65mL Fresh milk 1tsp Vanilla essence 65gm Melted butter

Method: 1. Place all ingredients (except melted butter) into a mixing bowl.

2. Whisk till light and fluffy with high speed for 6 minutes.

3. Fold in melted butter.

4. Pour mixtures into a 9" lined round mould. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180 degree celcius for 30-40 minutes.

5. Cut the cake into half (horizontally). Spread out white cream and blueberry jam (could be anything else according to preference)

6. Put on the other half back.

Decoration time! This is all depends on one's creativity. Please do not do as mine - as mine is so-not-nice.

Cover the whole cake with white cream - smoothly. Mine is so-not-smooth...

Cherries were put on!

Almond slices on the side, and writings were on it...

Ta-Da! My slightly defected finished cake - but tasted really good eh.. :p

Caution! Decoration must be finished before the white cream melt away!!

Hey, I'm a beginner. This is all I can do. Happy Birthday mum! This is my first ever baking a cake. This is to show you a bit of my sincerity.. =)

Special thanks to aunt - for teaching sister and I on how to bake, using your oven, and even making the surprise to perfection for keeping the cake safe from her... ^^ Mummy had a great night complimenting how good the cake tasted and how nice it looked - see? a mum's love is so great! She said the cake looks nice.. Oh My God..
