Wow - above and beyond

Just have to show this one off, and thank the company who went above and beyond to make it possible.

Every week our local radio station West FM  run a celebrations spot, where by they read out dedications for birthdays etc and then they all go into a draw and at the end of the week one is picked out and the winner gets a cake made and delivered. The cake is made by a local company called The Cook School Scotland.

Well on Friday last week my daughter got a telephone call to say she had been the winner and they would make a cake for Bob and deliver it. So my daughter started to explain to them about Bob....well he is a unique one of and not much point in making him something he could not eat. The woman took on board all what my daughter said and agreed to make a Bob friendly cake, but that he would have to wait till Tuesday for it as it was too late to make that at short notice.

So this afternoon Bob got this delivered. It did have his name on it but I have cloned that out ( and not good enough to add Bob back in its place). My daughter says it was very light, airy and tasted really really good.

Wonder if they fancy starting classes in allergy free cooking? Could fill their class with family and friends!!

the blemishes are where I edited out his name

and I have to say just look at their cupcakes, do they not just look fab.

Wonder if they take orders for allergy free birthday cakes, as it is impossible to buy them.

Thank you to all involved in making one little boy very very happy.

    1. I think it is so so wonderful that they were prepared to do it. Its the first "bought" or "non home made" cake he has ever had and that is worth so so much to not only him but us as well

  3. This is great!!! So glad he enjoyed it too! Lets campaign for the Cookery School to do allergy friendly classes. Imagine the impact that could have for sufferers to be able to dine out.... SAFELY! :0)

    1. it would be brilliant Sam...just not sure how you would achieve it with every bodies allergies being different. Bob and E have different needs allergy wise. Mind as long as they made it totally nut free they could we can use spreads that suit both, gluten free and egg free....lets lobby them!!
