The Kit-Kat Cake
Simpler than it might look, this cake takes a traditional round cake and invites the baker to ice the outside with frosting and then cover the edges with Kit-Kat pieces or whichever candy bars your child might prefer. Candy lovers will find this to be an absolute delight. Cover the top with additional candy like M&Ms or even cookies to make it appear as if the candy bar structure is filled despite the base actually being made of cake.
Cake Pops
A bite-sized and portable take on the classic cake, cake pops make for delicious treats on a desert table or even as a birthday party giveaway. Using either a specialty cake pop can or rolling cakes bites of your own from a larger homemade sheet cake, you can decorate and shape these pops to fit all kinds of birthday party themes, styles or topping preferences.
The Rainbow Layered Cake
A visual display that will get any kid excited about celebrating the fact that they are turning another year older, this colorful creation puts a quick spin on a simple layered cake. Separate the cake batter that you’ve whipped up into separate bowls, adding different colored food dye to each layer you plan on baking. Once the brightly colored cakes are baked, level them and layer then accordingly with the icing of your choosing.
