I am not sure what to do about his cake. I wanted to bake it myself but have not found a good recipie. What did you do/ will do about their cake?

Re: birthday cake

  • I made *this* cupcake recipe (a carrot cake), with *this* cream cheese frosting recipe.  LO wasn't too into them (though he liked the cupcakes on their own better than with the frosting) - but DH and I (and family) loved them!

  • My sister is making a giant cupcake cake and regular cupcakes for his party. Both from the box cakes with homemade buttercream icing.

    We had someone I know bake us a two-tiered cake. (We paid her.) One tier was vanilla and one was chocolate. Mickey theme.
  • I used box cake but used butter instead of oil and an extra egg that made it super rich. Made vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate to have the neopolitan look. Then made homemade buttercream frosting. They were pretty fantastic.
     
  • My "masterpiece". Heh.
     
  • Our party isn't for a couple weeks, and I'm still undecided on which cake I'll bake. I have an incredibly delicious chocolate cake recipe, but I'm afraid it will be too rich. I may alternate chocolate and vanilla layers...

  • We had a local mom who does baking as a side business to do it. We just wanted a more simple vanilla cake with buttercream. Although I love chocolate, I didn't want to clean it up and opted for the vanilla.
