Birthday Cake Ideas
for a Kid's Party
Kids at a birthday party look forward to eating cake and ice cream to celebrate the birthday. The birthday cake should fit in visually with the theme and decorations of the birthday party. Does this Spark an idea?
Present Cake
A cake that looks like a wrapped birthday present fits in with any kid's party theme. Bake and frost a rectangular sheet cake, create a ribbon and bow with long strips of fruit snacks and decorate the cake with small round candies to make it look like it has polka-dotted wrapping paper.
Castle Cake
Make a cake that looks like a castle in pink and purple for a princess party or in gray and red for a knight or pirate party. Start with four small square cakes and build the base of the castle from three of the cakes layered on one another. Make the center portion by cutting the last cake in fourths and stacking three of those on one another to create a miniature layer cake. Use upside-down ice cream cones for towers on the corners and top of the cake. Frost the cakes and cones, and use candies to decorate the castle.
Shaped Sheet Cake
Make a cake for any kid's party theme by cutting a large sheet cake so its outline looks like something related to the theme. For example, make a fish cake by cutting a cake into an oval and using the corners that were cut off as the fins. Decorate the cake with colored icing and candies to look like the animal or item.
