Birthday Party!

Happy Halloween everyone! 
My sisters party is coming up, the theme as outdoor movies. As usual we're getting going with invitations early and having fun with decoration ideas, but I'll show you the actual party on the day (probably after). You can download some stuff off other websites like I did, and here they are. Eat drink chic, make sure you cut out the valentines bit 'cause it's meant for valentines day not movies. Have fun!

Preheat oven to 180. Lightly grease a 6 cm deep, 20cm round cake tin. Line base with baking paper.

To make the chocolate icing sift icing sugar and cocoa powder in a bowl. Add butter and 1 tbsp of boiling water. Stir until smooth. Spread icing over cake. Top with blueberries. Allow icing to set. Slice and serve!
