and as we are baking with boozy fruits and spices, it’s

beginning to smell a lot like Christmas too!

Nothing welcomes the family home like the heady spices of

yuletide baking and if you are yet to appreciate the richness

of festive fruit cake, fear not, as this month we have a truly

indulgent Christmas carrot cake for you to try instead!

This delicious recipe is a tried and tested favourite of

Charlotte White and as well as giving you her recipe she

will show you in simple stages, how to decorate your cake

with classic vintage style - you’ll love her sugar candy canes

and poinsettias, just watch and decorate along with your

FREE DVD (a little present from us)!

Charlotte also gives us a beginners lesson in royal icing

so get your piping bag ready and subscribe this month to

receive a Jem 55 Piece Nozzle Set worth over £40! Find

all the nozzles and tools you require to create everything

from simple stars to splendid buttercream fl owers and

Charlotte’s caged pearls, all organised for you in this

useful nozzle case. To get piping, turn to page 10.

Having a good kit makes achieving great results a lot easier, along with

our series on airbrushing from Shesto, we have an unbeatable reader offer

for you to treat yourself or a cake mad friend to a great airbrush - turn to

pages 26 and 65 for details. I can’t wait to see your own versions of this

month’s cakes, please do send them in to us to feature in Slice of Social

and our new online blog. We want to see your wedding and party cakes

too as well as answer any cake decorating and cake business questions

you may have. I’m so excited as this issue is packed with gorgeous

seasonal makes, nordic chic patterns and colours, fun and novel Santa

characters, traditional gingerbread and even a Bethlehem inspired cake

from the queen of colours, Lindy Smith!

Enjoy choosing the showstopper for your family celebrations,

all of the tutorials are guaranteed to increase Christmas

spirit and add a little magic to the festivities if you follow the

step-by-steps, take your time and pay heed to our cake artists advice.

I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a very happy new year,
