Images of Steinlager II: Jenny makes the cake

'Steinlager II - 'Grim' on the rail.'    Jenny Nicholls    Click Here to view large photo

When one of the crew of Steinlager II celebrated his 50th birthday recently, his wife turned to Jenny Nicholls of For Heaven's Cake to produce a replica of Big Red for the occasion.

Working from photos Jenny produced produced this work of beautifully crafted edible art, to add a memorable focus to the celebration last Saturday.

And yes, her cakes taste as good as they look.

For more of Jenny's artistry see www.forheavenscake.co.nz - and you can see why she was voted by the 2008 Metro magazine readers as crafting Auckland’s Best Cakes
