hat tricky!

Oooooh now that there is a definite winter chill in the air it is all so much more important - Do not forget that hat!!! Preferably one that keeps the ears warm... of course hats come in many different shapes and sizes and apart from practicality, they can tell us alot about a person.

Now here's a game for you, which cake top hat is just the thing for a firey New Yorker?

Which fellow deserves a feather in his cap?

Who is the perfect lady for a joiner with his all too sharp tools?

And which pair enjoy the cold it seems and sporty pom poms?

Answers on a postcard please..... and wrap up warm!!

food-and drink!- of love!!

Yes, love makes you hungry and thirsty too i think... all those romantic dinners and a few glasses here and there to toast the future... or maybe a can of your favourite brew or mango juice! The drinks selection is extensive!! Now if you are looking forward to a marriage of love and good food, why not marry a chef, a cookery queen or a pizza shop owner... and fingers crossed someone doesn't mind doing the dishes!!!

ethel brings it!

Hello from caketopland, which if you are looking you would find it just down the road from Nessie and Loch Ness, and just up and round the corner from that fine set of arches that Harry Potter's School train travels over on it's magical way to Hogwarts..... Now i'm afraid i couldn't tell you where Hogwarts School actually is, but if it is to be found in the vicinity of here i am sure Ethel the postie would know!!! Yes, for all caketops are taken on their merry way to you via Ethel and her Royal Mail Van. Ethel is a lovely charming lady who no matter the weather, depth of snow drift, iminent risk of landslide, random mechanical difficulties or rogue sheep, the post always gets through! I suspect in a former life, Ethel would have been a pony express rider, somewhat akin to Calamity Jane, but maybe no guns, and the injuns would have liked her.....

However, all good things do come to an end and Ethel the postie has hung up her spurs. A well deserved and no doubt just as busy retirement awaits!!!




Ethel had a fine dinner and celebration with all her work collegues, and i sent along a surprise Ethel cake top and wee cake for the occasion. Very best wishes to Ethel and we will miss her daily visits to caketopland... oh! but don't worry too much about the post and your caketop deliveries as Ethel's replacement postie will do just as fine a job... and maybe Ethel will have passed on the secret Hogwarts address too.....
