England's second match is on tonight and as the sun was still shining, typically up until today, we had planned to have a BBQ rather than watching it in a pub. Not sure if that will still be the case but we still have lots of nice things to eat while we watch the game. Instead of making a pudding (although I really felt like making meringue with fresh strawberries and raspberries) I have gone for some World Cupcakes as dessert. With just a hint of a theme, I have created cakes with white and red striped butter icing, and also a set of football pitch cakes complete with retro footballing accessories. Do you recognise Bobbly Charlton out there?! If we win I'll be making some Gold Cupcakes for the celebratory after parties. Fingers crossed!
