Titch is 3 tomorrow!
Wish me luck
1 egg and out of date baking powder.
Going well so far!
Me and bag got some new baking powder. Always get smiles/odd looks when I have bag but not a toddler? @Sarah_and_Duck
The eagle-eyed amongst you will have noticed I haven't got any butter. Another trip to the shop for "silly daddio"
Couldn't remember if I needed salted or unsalted butter. Started googling it. Remembered I'd put a photo of the recipe on here.
I'm finding the second half of step 4 a bit patronising.
Let's see how I do!
Nope, they were right.
Egg shells picked out successfully 👌🏻
Right. It's in the oven. Forgot to take a pic! Mix tastes ok though!
40-45 minute bake so should probably tidy the kitchen.
Kitchen smells cakey.
I'm ready for this. I've outsourced the icing making, I've done enough chemistry for today making the cake!
Cake!
So turns out the cake REALLY likes the pan. Guess I didn't butter it enough.

Gonna give my friend gravity a few minutes before I interfere. Don't let me down physics!
Boom! Thanks to Isaac Newton for inventing gravity.
(It needed a prod with a spatula too, turns out I didn't get the butter into the corners)
It's in the fridge cooling before icing. I'm excited/terrified for the next step.
Carving is about to begin.
I've just realised the best bit; I can eat the offcuts now!
Shit just got real. Wish me luck
Boom!
Getting there!

Fin!
