Load on those calories!
One of the most popular appearances at children's parties New Zealand wide is Lolly Cake. It is absolutely loaded with sugar and guaranteed to get them running round for hours. Every bakers, cafe and supermarket worth it's salt sells it but, for your enjoyment, here's the recipe for you to try at home.
Make your own Lolly Cake - Yum!
120 gms butter
250 gms malt biscuit brumbs
180 gms Fruit Puffs - Confectionery (cut into pieces)
1/2 tin Condensed Milk
Coconut - for coating
Method:
Warm the butter and the condensed milk in microwave (30 seconds at a time) or in a pot on the stove. Add the biscuit crumbs and fruit puffs. Stir the mixture well. Then form the mixture into a log or small balls and roll in the coconut or press it into a tin sprinkle with coconut.
Put it into the fridge to set.
The fruit puffs they use are the same as those pink shrimp sweets you used to be able to buy for a penny. Enjoy!!! (don't blame me if you put on weight with this one - you have been warned!!)

Fantastic blog guys!! We didn't realise you were in the Christchurch area. We're moving out to Waddington in two weeks time (just 19km from Oxford), so hopefully we can meet up once the packing up stress has dissipated!!
All the best
