Today was the final day of my Breastfeeding Buddy training course, and I had to have my practical assessment to check that I know my stuff before I got my certificate and the all important pink t-shirt – my new buddy “uniform”!

Rather embarrassingly, we also had our photograph taken as a group for a press release! Hopefully we will be featured in the local news soon to promote the service we have been trained to provide. I will try to remember to post it here if we’re on any of the local news sites :-).
In order to celebrate our last day (and to fine tune my cupcake & buttercream recipes for Georgie’s birthday) I whipped up a batch of cupcakes to share with the rest of the trainees and the staff at the children’s centre. After asking for opinions on the matter via twitter, I decided to decorate the cakes as boobs to match the theme of the training course! Read on for my recipes & photos of the finished result…
