Luke, Timothy & I made some really cute & delicious buzzy bee cakes this morning while Lee took Jordan out for a special father/son time (they went bowling & won a free game each for getting strikes! & then they did a bit of train spotting at the station. They had fun!)
Timmy & Luke really love baking, especially today's cakes as they are quite keen on bees & other creepy crawlies. Luke loves putting the mixture into the cake cases & Timmy likes mixing particularly when we've just added the eggs. Both Timmy & Jordan prod the eggs with their spoon saying 'Mash! Mash! Mash!' until the yolks have broken up! While I made the cakes look like bees they buzzed excitedly around the kitchen flapping their arms pretending to be bees. Everyone enjoyed eating the bees after lunch!
Here is a piccie of the bees altogether & one of the ladybird cakes we made in September. Here's a helpful tip- ladybirds are easier for the kids to make. Bees are a bit more tricky what with the stripes & wings. However both are great fun to eat! ;0)PS It's NOT raining today!
PPS Jordan was exhausted after his busy week & asked to go to bed at 6pm! He just couldn't keep his eyes open, bless his heart!

They are just the cutest little cakes,How could you eat them? x x
Well, Timmy was a little distressed when the eyes came off the first cake he ate. The second cake he ate when one eye came off he said 'Look! Bee is winking!'Luke & Timmy both eat the icing first & then they say 'Bee all gone' & proceed to eat the cake without another thought! After all, these bees are made for eating! ;o) Glad you like them!
