Gingerbread Dalahäst Cake
Some delightful IKEA cake tins have appeared, and Min thinks she has convinced Opal and Agathe that they are new funny-shaped bathtubs.
They humour her for a bit, however they are not really fooled, and luckily they are in the mood for baking today!
Min needs help with this big bowl of sticky eggs, sugar and molasses..
Agathe pitches in…
…while Opal wields the olive-wood spoon!
They are pretty happy with the Gingerbread result!
The littlest human in the family turns Two today – Thanks for your help, girls!!
.
TWO years?! Yikes, how did that happen???
I know! She is suddenly a big girl (who loves Hitty!!)
Gorgeous!!! Well done, Hittys!
Thanks very much – we have had all kinds of Dalahäster in the house, but not a cake pan until now!
Happy Birthday Little One! May your year be filled with happiness and of course, Quimper Hitty stories!
She has her own Hitty Dulcie that she can play with when she visits – she does recognise Hitty as a special kind of doll, but just at the moment her favourite thing to do is disrobe them!
I marvel at the creativity…well done.
Thank you! Luckily we had a few Swedish Horses around the house to use as models!
Not only did they make a beautiful cake, but it was very tasty too. It was a delight to watch the little one blow out the candles for the first time! And to hear her tell of other recent happy day events, like her youngest uncle’s birthday last week, with emphasis on ‘happy’.
It was tasty! The littlest human seemed to especially appreciate the ice cream!
Yum, yum!! The Quimper Hittys are very good cooks and bakers!
They are excellent company in the kitchen!
Too cute. Like real little girls helping. Bet the kitchen smelled great. Robin Campbell
It did smell great! And it was a fun project to involve the Hittys in – they always like to help!
happy birthday to the littlest one, happy days always with her Hitty friends.
Thank you, it has been very pleasant to help to celebrate a little birthday!
hard to believe the littlest one is already 2! This cake is great fun. And as always the “girls” are so helpful and so photogenic!!
I can hardly believe it either, but it’s true! She is quite the little individual, and loves coming here to play with her Hitty Dulcie…The wooden girls are sometimes nervous but she is very well supervised and so far has treated her Dulcie very kindly!
Happy Birthday Frida! What a unique and beautiful cake!
It was fun making, and eating it!
