Flower pot



Another friend of mine celebrated. She was (47).  The idea was to make the same amount of flowers as her birthday was.




I made flowers first. Some were poked on cocktail stick so they could stand nicely.


400g of butter, 400g of self-rising flour, 400g of caster sugar 6 spoons of orange juice, orange zest
Separate mix into four parts and use small round baking tin. Bake on gas mark 4 for 15-20 minutes until golden.


Prepare lemon buttercream – 150g of butter, 350 g of icing sugar , 4 table spoon of milk and lemon zest.

Fill sponges with raspberry jam and buttercream and then cover the cake whole with buttercream. Allow chilling in fridge whilst coloring icing. I used while and blue icing. I made sausages from both roll them and cover the sides of pot. Make another sausage for top edge of pot.

 
Five crushed bourbon biscuits will do for “the dirt”. Arrange flowers on the top.
