Yesterday I ran a fantastic Fairy Party for 8 girls who just love to cook (and one brother who joined in)

The Fairies made delicious fairy cakes, fairy bread & pink cookies.. they wore fairy wings & they took their cakes, fairy bread & cookies home in a fairy box with a fairy wand...this party is perfect for all the fairies out there!

If you want to make fairy cakes like these fairies this is how to do it.
