The Great Motherload Bake Off

Baking a cake is an intrinsic part of motherhood, whether it’s to celebrate a baby shower, a first birthday or whipping up a treat for a friend.

Here we celebrate the baking triumphs and disasters of The Motherload® Facebook group in honour of The Great British Bake Off final, 2016. Prepare to be awestruck by their showpiece creations…

Warning: Some cakes are of a slightly *ahem* gynaecological nature.

With thanks to:
