Next year? Pssssht - next month! (Rose and I decided that it would be really good fun to have a brisk autumnal tweed ride, followed by afternoon tea - and a similar orgy of cake - sometime before Christmas. Now I just need to convince someone that it was really their idea, so that they'll shoulder the burden of organizing it.)
Oh, and the recipe for that huge quantity of cream cheese icing my cake was drowned in:
300g cream cheese
700g icing sugar
Combine the two. It doesn't look like that tiny amount of cheese will accommodate that huge amount of sugar, but it will, and more besides. You could probably get up to a kilo in there, and it might end up stiffer.
Flavour with vanilla, or lemon, or cinnamon, or whatever you fancy. (I used vanilla extract - about 2 tsp.)
