CNG Design 10th Birthday

Can we say a HUGE thank you to everyone who came along on Saturday 25 November and joined in with CNG Design’s 10th anniversary celebration. The whole day was fantastic! We hope you enjoyed Magic Jono, Lynne’s Cake Emporium Fondant Animal Making and Graham Sutherland’s free patisserie demos. All the team at CNG Design were delighted to see so many people join in. Not forgetting the amazing Craig Ferguson, who was absolutely amazing – he handled being mobbed by eager younger ladies demanding that he play Taylor Swift! Here are some photos we took throughout the day…
