Thank you all :) I am looking forward to seeing her face tomorrow. She has an accountancy exam in the morning but the whole family will be over late afternoon/evening.

Superb cakes Gee what a talented Gran you are, she will love them just what every girl wants for her birthday....
shoes and handbags!! :o)

Wow they are fantastic Gee,Happy 19th birthday wishes for your granddaughter:)))))

Thank you, Freeasabird, Neellan and Mark. The females in my family are all into Radley bags, Freeasabird, I even have an old dog-walking Radley, full of doggie bin bags, treats, etc :)

She will LOVE it, how very, very clever!
Are you already planning the 20th birthday design?!

Very clever ;o) I hope your grand daughter will enjoy the cakes ...

wonderfully creative, Gee, did you have a "pattern" to go on, or did you make it up as you went along?

Sure she loved the cakes - lol if she didn't, sure there's a few GoYers who'd be happy to take bits off your hands!!

The cakes were a great success and gained the accolade of 'awesome!' - praise indeed :) Fran, I didn't have a pattern, just looked at lots of pictures, armed myself with a sharp knife and did it little by little. Goodness knows what I will do next year, Wildrose, suggestions please :)

portrait of your daughter from a picture?

some people have made cake in the shape of burgers, roast chicken, you name it! there'll be plenty of "xx cake" images for just about anything you can think of - or chcuk some random words in, never know what might turn up

Brilliant!

The shoe has now been eaten! Just the handbag to go - I am thinking of something re: money/finance, Fran, as Jenny is doing a college accountancy course and loves anything to do with figures, maybe a £ sign topped with chocolate money.

Thanks Lulu :)

Absolutely fab idea Gee, bet that cake went down a treat.
After making such a great job of the cakes I think I would make prints of the pics for her bedroom wall.

a calcualtor, then, lulu? any sort of finacial desk eauaipment? piggy bank? *s*

Brilliant Gee and so glad they went down well with your grandaughter, im not surprised they are wicked!! :o))
