From Monday next 22nd September I will be teaching a 10 week evening course on Sugarcraft & cake decorating in Athlone It.

Its a course for people who would like to learn a little more about cake decorating.  It is for beginners and will give a good overview on all aspects of sugarcraft. 

It has been very well attended every year and usually ends up as two courses to fit in the numbers.  There are some demonstrations and some practical work.

 If you would like any further information let me know.

This pink and ivory tower was produced for a wedding in the Killyhevlin Hotel in Enniskillen.

Each tier is made with a double tier of cake.   They were rich fruit cake, moist chocolate cake and also lemon maderia.

 It had a lace design on the top of each cake and pink and ivory roses in between each double tier.

It looked really stunning in this beautiful well lit function room.  Thanks to the Thomas and the staff at the hotel for all their help.

Cannaboe Confectionery have recently joined the Professional Wedding Circle.  The Circle is made up of a group of professional companies who are committed to providing high quality wedding services.  The group in conjuction with Lough Rynn Castle & Estate have organised a Wedding Extravaganza on Sunday April 27th.  Doors open at 3pm.

This section is to let our customers tell us what they thought of their cakes. 

Its great to hear feedback and it all helps to improve our customer service which is very important to us.

Cannaboe Confectionery would like to wish  Peter Bradley a very happy 50th birthday. 

TV Presenter Lucy Kennedy helped to celebrate a special birthday.  (more…)

First Holy Communion and Confirmation are coming up fast.  We make communion cakes and confirmation cakes which have a prayer book and Rosary beads handmade from sugarpaste.  The cakes, lemon maderia, chocolate or carrot, are made as near as possible to the date ensuring that they taste as delicious as they look.

We normally keep the Communion cakes white with the writing in pink or blue.  The Confirmation cakes can be any colour.   Order early as dates fill up quickly.

We have had many requests for cakes shaped like particular cars, vans, trucks, planes, boats, motorbikes, tractors etc.

We can personalise them by putting the number plate, company name on the truck or hay in the tractor.

Send us a photo of the vehicle and we will try to get it as near as possible.

Here are a few of them. (more…)

Cannaboe Confectionery have just attended our last wedding fair for this month.  We had a wedding cake stand at the Slieve Russell Hotel, the Clarion in Sligo, the Bush Hotel Carrick-on-Shannon and the Sligo Park Hotel in the last month.  I will keep you all informed when we are attending our next fair.
