Birthday Cakes for Kid’s (even the big ones!)

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 30^th 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 25^th birthday he also had a pirate themed party (just with a bit more rum!), so she obviously knows him very well!!!
