Big Wig Ball

Today is the Big Wig Ball taking place in Carlisle in aid of CLIC Sargent.

Having seen that this event was being organised a few months ago I offered to donate a cake decorating class to the raffle prizes.  I then decided a few weeks later that it actually might be a good idea to donate a cake too...and so that what's I did.

CLIC Sargent is not a charity I was familiar with before hearing about this event.  But as a mum of 4, fortunately healthy children, I am always keen to get involved with charities working towards helping children and young adults.

The theme of the ball was flamboyant and so I decided to create a bright cake.  Having looked at the CLIC Sargent website I saw that their logo is of a five petal flower and so I decided to combine the bright colours with the flower...and below is the cake I ended up with.

I dropped the cake off at the hotel this afternoon whilst the girls were busy setting up for the ball tonight.  The room looked stunning with black tablecloths and chair covers and pink sashes.  The cake really stood out from it's position in the corner and so I'm hoping they liked it and that it gets a little bit of attention tonight.

Fingers crossed they raise lots of money for a worthwhile charity.
