How to Make Easy Kid Birthday Cakes


Here are a couple of tips to making simple yet spectacular kid birthday cakes:

Themed Cake Pans -A huge variety of
themed cake pans are available at party supply stores. These range from basic shapes to popular TV and cartoon characters. Fairytale castles, dinosaurs, Winnie the Pooh, and Mickey Mouse, and Strawberry Shortcake are a few examples.  Also available are 3-D cake pans which create an impressive finished three-dimensional kid birthday cake.

Edible Cake Art Images - Edible images are flat pre-printed edible food decorations.  They are an easy, time-saving way to create a professional looking cake design.

Designs for Homemade Kid Birthday Cakes

Party cakes take many forms and designs and should fit in with the overall theme of the celebration.

Starting with the traditional round or sheet cakes and a little extra effort, a truly memorable cake is possible... and making your own cake helps defray the cost of party expenses.

Anyone can bake a simple sheet cake and jazz it up with a few clever cake toppers  and unique birthday candles.  Consider fresh cut flowers, different kinds of candies and cookies, small plastic toys, or other items which match the party theme.

For example, make a work zone cake for a construction party by using small trucks, tootsie roll logs, and a dirt mountain of mini chocolate chips.  Add
construction cone candles

Top your luau party cake with a lei made from fresh or plastic flowers.

A carnival party cake could be accented with animal crackers and peppermint sticks.

If you'd like to build your own unique kid birthday cake, think of the design you'd like to make and what shapes you need to make it - round, sheet, loaf, cupcakes, or a combination.

Bling! Bling! Your Kid Birthday Cakes!

There are many choices for placing the finishing touches on your party cake to add a little Bling!  Here are a few ideas:

Spray Color Mist - is a fun addition to your baking repertoire. Frost your cake white, then spray on edible color from an aerosol can.

Available in many colors, it can be used with stencils to make unique designs, as a highlight to whipped topping - even on your child's mashed potatoes!

Luster Dusts & Shimmer Dusts - are an edible food safe "dust" which can be used on any frosting recipe that dries hard and firm to the touch.

Brush it on white frosting for a metallic-like glossy sheen or layer it for interesting color effects. It can be mixed with white spirits such as clear vanilla or lemon extracts and brushed on for more a more intense color effect.

Cake Stampers - can be used along with brush-on color for fondant icing. Simply stamp shapes and designs into the finished fondant and tint with brush-on color.

Edible Bakery Bites - These are thin wafer type edible decorations, perfect for decorating cupcakes, cakes, suckers, candy...

Edible Sugar-Shape Decorations  like Edible Rosescan be easily added to your finished cake for a professional touch.

Decorative Candles ,   Themed Cake Picks & Rings , and Edible Sprinkles & Sanding Sugar  are all fun tools in your cake and cupcake baking arsenal.
