Marble Birthday Cake

"A birthday—and now a day that rose With much of hope, with meaning rife— A thoughtful day from dawn to close: The middle day of human life."— Jean Ingelow

I turned 27 today. I've never been that big on birthdays so I've just had a quiet day at home with my family today. I spent the afternoon looking through some old photos and keepsakes as well which was nice. It's become a bit of a birthday tradition over the years.

My father bought this cake from Michel's Patisserie earlier today as well as a birthday treat. It's a mix of milk chocolate and white chocolate mud cake with just a hit of rum. It was delicious and almost too pretty to eat! Almost. ;)
