Ok, so my food photography needs some work but I can happily report that it tasted fantastic and it even had the man who is a baker by trade reporting back how yummy it tasted. Not even he could believe I had made it using products from Morrisons Savers range. Making a cake really can be a cheap activity for you to do with your little ones, I find that Oli appreciates food more if he's had a input into the making of it.
