The crumble is made of 2Tbs of flour, 1Tbs oats and oil and i added a bit of milk to it.

The 21st Birthday Cake





Being the foodie that I am oh and a baking enthusiast I have always wanted to bake a two tier cake so this weekend before my 21st I though this is it now or never. So here my attempt from making cake all from scratch (yes I'm anti cake mix) to rolling out royal icing and making a chocolate glaze and icing the cake and dipping fruit in ha-ha chocolate.
Anyway I managed to accomplish all this with out the proper equipment and only a day or so and not to mention an ancient oven. Enjoy.

My beautiful chocolate cake(and berry jam filling) with chocolate butter icing and royal almond icing all topped with fresh cherries and strawberries.
