SBCTakeover Best Bits - Grey Week!

​The weekend just gone was a sunny, warm one with clear skies and the smell of barbeques in the air.  There was one slightly unusual thing about it though – there were big patches of grey around us. 
 
No, the grey wasn’t the shadow of a “typical English summer raincloud”,  it was a Depressed Cake popup in Chelmsford, Essex, which was held alongside a grey bakes theme for Sunday Baking Club.
 
There will be another post about the popup event itself, but this post today is to celebrate some of the best “grey bakes” that were submitted on Twitter - and there really were some incredible entries!
 
Below are a few of my best bits… Choose your favourite and the winner (with the most votes by the end of Sunday 14th)  will win a BuBakes Limited Edition tea towel! 

Grey tabby cats and kittens by @scarletclark

Grey cupcakes with a hidden heart by @Caroline_Simi

Flustered Creams by @ransome_emma

Grey frosted rainbow cake by @FreedomSaraD (well, I have it on good authority her 13 year old daughter made it!)

Earl Grey and Lemon cupcakes by ‏@Hayleydaviez

Wobbly Waffles by @LisaRParker

Giant storm cloud meringues, made by Mr BuBakes & Albie the Anxiety Blob..

To note, Albie and his giant meringues are not in the final cut for voting, as I didn't want to be accused of fixing anything!  Albie did want to remind you though, that you can still get your limited edition tea towel to mark BuBAkes' first (of many) Depressed Cake Shop events, and that ALL profits go to charity! 

Get yours here, and then show us all how you #BakeADifference. 

If you would like to find out more about holding your own pop up, you can visit the DCS website, or give me a shout and I'd be happy to answer any questions or help wherever I can.

​Lots and lots and LOTS of love
