I Would Love to Bake a Cake for… Stephen Fry

Sometimes I am lucky enough to bake for a celebrity. I say this with a massive disclaimer; I am a total bitch when it comes to celebrity, a judgmental bitch.

I Would Love to Bake a Cake for… Tony Visconti

And, dear reader, I did. I was lucky enough to be invited to the grand opening of The Visconti Studio at Kingston University last week and deliver a cake to a hero of mine.
