celebrating my birthday with One Direction (sort of)

Last Friday was my 19th birthday and I was kindly sent a cake* through the post from Baker Days to celebrate! Baker Days are an online company that let you personalise and order hand made cakes to be delivered to your door. I was asked to pick a cake and obviously was not going to turn down the chance to have a One Direction cake with my name on it! The cake arrived through the letterbox in a cute tin with balloons, candles and a little note card. If you are not a One Direction fan you probably think I am crazy right now but I loooooooooooooooove the look of the cake, and to be honest it is probably the closest I will ever be to being Harry Styles' girlfriend... I was sent a carrot cake which I am not a fan of so I didn't like the cake but my Nan loved it, I can say the buttercream icing was lovely though. 

The Baker Days service is really impressive and you can personalise so much of your order, adding names and pictures to cakes. My favourite part of the service is if you are sending the cake as a surprise to somebody through the post you can get "no peeking until your birthday" added to the box! All the cakes are hand made and fresh for up to three weeks from when you receive them. 

I think this is a brilliant gift idea, especially as a surprise for someone, you can pick the cake size but if you go for a letterbox size then will be a real treat for them as they wont know what it is until they open it!

What do you think of my One Direction cake?

I would really love it if you voted for Ellie's Ramblings for Best New Beauty Blog in the Cosmo Blog Awards here please please please!
