Dear all This is our first birthday party and we are asking our Two Foot to give you the recipe later Fred & George 1) investigating the cake 2) The birthday banner is at the back - we didn't like it much but we've decided it's ok. 3) Our Two Foot leaves us with a strawberry replacing the candle (we didn't think much of the candle, although it was quite pretty). Someone said candles can be lit, but that didnt happen for us. What does lit mean, anyway?

This is the recipe for the cakes: Take a handful of Wagg premium pellets and soak them in a bowl for about four hours or so(enough water to cover and add more if you think it needs it after an hour or so). Then take a teaspoon and with the back of it, mush it all up so that it's smooth and gungy. (I also tried Burgess Super Guinea Excel but it didnt mush as well or stick together. George quite enjoyed the softened SGE for breakfast, though). Press the mixture into a small dish (it might be worthwhile to give it a slight coating of oil to get it out easily, but I did it in little glass dishes and it came out fine), and refrigerate overnight. Loosen the sides with a flat knife and ease out of the dish onto a suitable serving plate. Garnish with grass or other treat of your piggies' choice. Serve when you're ready as it will probably keep reasonably well. If you're going to top with a candle, make sure you supervise your piggies as although mine ignore anything that they dont think is good for them, them might just try it.
