Birthday cake decadence
It was my fiancés birthday and as per tradition, I made him a cake to top the previous years. This year it was a rich dark chocolate cake with salted caramel buttercream, topped with chocolate ganache and salted caramel sauce and various sweet treats. I don't know how I'm going to outdo myself next year! #food #lifestyle #cooking

After much indecision we also finally purchased an outdoor coffee table and chairs to create a more usable outdoor space. I managed to convince Maurizio we needed these awesome concrete planted boxes and we've planted box hedge plants in them so we can shape them when
