Everyone knows how excited kids get at birthday parties, especially when it is their own. They look forward to all of the presents and other fun things at their party. But, we all know how ecstatic they are when the birthday cake comes out. You don’t have to be a talented pastry chef to make your child’s dream cake. There are so many fun, easy cakes that will create lasting memories for your child’s special day!
For instance, if you visit the Family Fun magazine website, they offer many recipes for a huge variety of specialty cakes. One super easy idea for a little train lover is the ‘Choo Choo Train Cake’. You use 5 loaf cakes (or to make this even easier, use 5 pound cakes) and arrange them on a large platter. For each cake, use a different color of frosting or whipped cream and decorate each ‘car’ with different candies and cookies to make wheels and tracks. This cake is really cute and will be a huge hit.
Other places to look to for ideas are your local party store. They carry so many different theme cake pans and recipe books for easy at home cake baking and decorating. Even if you aren’t the best decorator, you still have tons of options. You can make a cake in a 13 x 9 pan and frost it and put an edible icing decoration in your child’s favorite theme on it.
Making your child’s birthday cake should be fun. And, seeing the excitement on your little one’s face is priceless!
