Thank you Craig!

Thank you to my charming and handsome brother Craig for my awesome gift!! :)  I have spent the past week and a half excitedly telling my friends about this site and almost all of them have commented on what an amazing brother you must be!! 😉

I have indeed been busy baking, but have not had a lot of time for blogging so far…!  So, for my first post, I thought I’d keep on the birthday theme, and make my first photo that of the cake I made to take to work for my birthday…  This is by far my favourite cake – a cookies and cream cake made with Oreo cookies!  The sponge has blitzed Oreo cookie pieces baked in to it, and the frosting is a delicious mix with more cookie crumbs – which is almost ice-cream like if eaten straight from the fridge!  I first made this for my friend James’ birthday, and it was such a hit that I was bullied into making another for my own birthday 😉  I think this cake tastes amazing, although the picture may not look that appetising – another friend told me he thought it looked like a lump of concrete!!  I was hoping that when I next made it, I could put some mini Oreos on the top of it to make it look a bit more appealing, but couldn’t find any in the supermarket today!   I already have two more orders for this cake for the next two weeks so hopefully I’ll find them before I next bake it.  If anyone who has tried the cake would like to leave a comment here about it, then please do!  I can also be contacted on victoria@victoria-sponge.com.
