Tahnee’s Treats – Homemade Fairy Cakes

Welcome my loves and how are you today? As some of you may know that here in the UK it is the summer holidays and with two little boys, I do find myself at a loss with things to do with them. Today we made some delicious fairy cakes to break the day up. There are only so many park trips that you can have (lol). So here is a, 100% fail-proof, victoria sponge fairy cake that you can whip up with your little ones. Also to keep them happy, peaceful and quiet (lol) for at least one minute while they eat it!!!

Decorating Your Fairy Cakes

Start by adding a teaspoon of buttercream, I cheated and used a Betty Crocker Vanilla one.

Add your cake top as wings.

A sprinkle of icing sugar, sprinkles, or even edible glitter, the possibilities are endless.

Well, that’s it that’s all you have to do! I do hope you enjoy trying these out. Even if it’s on your own or with your children, siblings or cousins I hope everyone enjoys making this tasty little treat. If you’re looking for more tasty treats I have more here that you can try, including unicorn biscuits.
Don’t forget to stop by my Social Media pages to keep up to date but until then I will see next time my loves! Be safe and be healthy!

Lots of Love
