Growing Bookworms – Sir Chocolate hosts a fashion show #cakeart #fondantart #growingbookworms
Posted: June 12, 2024 Filed under: Uncategorized 57 Comments
Talented poem, Merril Smith, gave me the idea for this Sir Chocolate hosts a fashion show post with her poem Changing Styles. Thank you, Merril.
Sir Chocolate decides to host a fashion show. All the villagers can come and show off their choice of outfit.
This is the stage:

Sir Chocolate is round and fat,
he wears a waistcoat and brown top hat,
Lady Sweet wears a stripy skirt and top,
She looks just like a lollipop.
Introduction to Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet from Sir Chocolate and the strawberry cream berries story and cookbook.
For the fashion show, Sir Chocolate buys a new hat.
Lady Sweet can’t decide with bag and shoes to wear for the show:

Merinda arrives in her new fairy ballroom gown.

Silly Willy loves his new Peter Pan costume.

Lady Drama is very dramatic with her huge pink beehive hairstyle.

Lastly, the Valentine Toffee Cupid arrives. He isn’t wearing anything at all …

I’ve shared my cupid made from toffee for Resa who reminded me of this cute little guy when she posted her Baby Angel with a Heart street art post.
The show ends with a delightful song by Queen Filigree (from Sally Cronin’s Tales from the Irish Garden).

Well, Fond(ant) art is taking a back seat to more important issues now.
Fond… of animals & trying to help them out seems to be one of the passengers in the front sear now.

Hi Robbie. I like the white shoes and purse with the flowers. I bet Lady Sweet would look smashing in them. ☺️
You should do MBF cake for the blog tour, which will be mid-July. That would be cool. 😎
