Today i made up some birdie bread patties using egg rings to keep them in the right shape as they cooked. Two of these are destined to become the boys birthday cake. I will make some mash potato "cream" for between the two layers, and possibly the same for icing, with pea and corn "sprinkles" and carrot stick "candles". I chopped up a patty for the birds afternoon tea just now and it's going down well, so hopefully they'll like the cake when i make it later in the week!

 

:ygbudgie: Trying to keep things in perspective here, wouldn't want it as MY birthday cake but I think it is a quite fantastic BIRDIE CAKE!!! Carry on, you are doing well!!

Some birds get spoilt rotten.

 

I must remember to never buy any birds from you Bea; otherwise I will have a riot on my hands if they talk to my birds & I’ll be getting demands for extra conditions.

I can't say i would want it as my cake either. When dad saw them he thought i was making bubble and squeak. Good thing he didn't sample one.

:hap: You would be right with the aviary birds, they get the usual seed, water, veggies, etc. The indoor guys are pampered little princes and princess's though.
