Spring is just around the corner, when minds turn to light and breezy thoughts. People dream about summer, brides engage in a flurry of planning for their summer weddings, and children rush to get outside and revel in the sun. In London great expectations build up for the next window display at the venerable Harrods.
Steeped in English tradition and upmarket style, Harrods’ windows are always sure to amaze and inspire.This spring’s opulent window display will be no exception. Built around a creative theme of “Stealing Beauty,” the display will showcase the latest in smart spring fashions, along with a show-stopping Fiona Cairns limited edition fairy cakes creation which tells an enchanting story of spring, birds, flowers, and fairies. The fanciful fairy cakes will exude a feeling of luxury and encompass the beauty and craftsmanship of the Fiona Cairns brand, while mirroring the message of the Harrods campaign. Each fairy cake will be delicately decorated with intricate butterfly and floral designs, carefully presented in a silver or gold case, and packaged in a stunning Fiona Cairns box. The range will retail at £12.95 for a pack of six, or £5.50 for a pack of two.
Fairy cakes are just one of the incredible creations to come from the mind of the brilliant English confectioner, Fiona Cairns Ltd. The Leicestershire bakery lovingly designs, bakes and creates astonishing luxury cakes of all shapes, sizes and imagination. Although called on to create an offering for Their Royal Highnesses, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Cairns believes there is a cake for everyone.
Each cake is lovingly hand-made and hand-decorated using only the finest ingredients. Although it’s hard to cut into any of these visually appealing wonders, they all taste as good as they look.Fiona’s latest book, Seasonal Baking, is full of baking inspiration for every time of year, but perhaps the best ideas come sprinkled with a little fairy dust. Anyone viewing the window, from children and London matrons to summer brides, are sure to start doing a little dreaming of their own.
