Not suitable for grown-ups!

Birthday parties were always a big thing in our family, and whenever possible Mum would always throw a birthday party for me and my sister. Mum did something different every year - some years she ordered the cake from a specialist and other years she attempted the cake herself. My favourite was a Garfield cake she put together, the novelty of it was what made it so memorable.


More and more parents seem to be 'theming' their kiddies birthdays, going all out on the celebrations, though childrens birthday parties really seem to be racking up the bill. Throughout 2009 we've done numerous kiddies cakes to suit a range of budgets - here are some highlights of our range which is not suitable for grown-ups!

Early on 2010 we'll bring you some tips and tricks for mum's and dad's to put together their children's birthday cakes themselves.

Kids often love novelty cakes, though this is where the biggest expense can occur. In situations like this going with a cake decorated with an edible image is a great budget saving option. This Aladdin themed cake, a 12" square which can provide approx 65 portions (usually more) is only £75. The cake was delivered to Gambado in Woodside Leisure Park, Watford.

This Snow White cake was probably one of the highlights of 2009. The dress forms the main part of the cake, and is made up of 4 x 8" layers. This would provide approx 45 portions, usually more, and is available at £95.

 

 

This gorgeous 'In the Night Garden' cake has to be a personal favourite! It captures the theme in its entirety and is a perfect choice for a childrens party with all of it's colours and shapes. 10" round, providing approx 45 portions and this one was delivered to Stanmore. Prices for this start from £70, and as shown is available at £120. 

 

Nemo - who doesn't love Nemo?! This was a brilliant choice, a cupcake tower, which took most of the hassle and mess out of cutting a big cake into individual portions. This one is a 8" top cutting cake which would provide approx 25 portions, and with 24 cupcakes with a mix of flavours. This Nemo set is £110, and was delivered to Kent.

 

This Curious George cake was a design inspired by a fellow cake maker in Canada. My client wanted something bright and colourful, and most of all something that would form the centre piece of her son's 1st birthday celebration. This is definitaly one of our more time consuming creations, though the final result is absolutely outstanding. This one serves approx 90 portions, is a 12" and 8" tiered square cake, and as it is shown is £260. This cake was delivered to Harrow.
