There have been quite a few cakes
that I haven’t got around to blogging about recently, so I thought I would
dedicate this post to the children’s birthday cakes I have recently made.
Dinosaur cake
I struggled to find templates for
a dinosaur cake online that actually looked like a dinosaur ,so instead just
decided to get stuck in and make it up as I go along, using one of my daughter’s toys
for inspiration. So I hope you can tell this cake is a dinosaur and not
actually a lizard!!!
Spiderman Cake
Superheroes seem to be the latest
cool trend for my children’s friends, so this is the Spiderman cake that was
requested by one of them. I asked my daughter if she were a boy would she be
pleased with this cake for her birthday, her response “no mummy, I’d still want
a Barbie princess cake!”. I don’t think she really understands the whole
superhero thing that her friends have going on, but even though she is the only
girl (except for the babies) she is still happy to get stuck in with the games
even if she is somewhat amused and confused by it all.
Pirate Ship Cake
This cake was for my husband’s 30th
birthday, he didn’t have any choice in the matter, our daughter was very
insistent that he was having a whole pirate themed birthday party! She wanted
flags, treasure hunts, fancy dress and a pirate ship cake. So that’s exactly
what he got, and I think he was secretly delighted! Little does our daughter
know that before she was born, for his 25th birthday he also had a
pirate themed party (just with a bit more rum!), so she obviously knows him
very well!!!
