More birthday preparations - I used this recipe to ice your strawberry cake (recipe for that to follow too).
You'll need:
8oz icing sugar
40ml hot water
Sift the icing sugar into a large bowl. This part is really good fun, even if most of the sugar does have a tendency to go over the worktop. Gradually add the water (you may not need all of it, especially if you're intending to add some liquid food colouring) and beat the mixture with a wooden spoon.
Depending on what texture of icing you want, you'll need to add more or less water. If you just want a thin glaze to drizzle over the top you'll maybe need more than the 40ml. I had fairly thick (but still drippable) icing to cover your cake - in pink for the strawberry part, and then green for the stalk.
