YS #12- Z's Birthday Cakes

Hello! It's Yummy Sunday once again and my entry for today is Z's birthday cakes last Oct.25,2009. I choose this entry because I want to share some tips on how to have an instant and cheap yet nice and fun themed birthday cakes.

Here is what I did for my son's birthday cakes;

I just bought a simple ready made birthday cake and requested the bakeshop to spray the cake with the color of my choice.They agreed and asked me to add P20 as an add on. I also instructed them also not to write anything nor decorate the cake with flowers.

Then, I bought the cake decorations of my chosen theme and just arranged it nicely on the ready made birthday cake. So, that's my secret. I get to have an inexpensive themed birthday cakes for my kids!

This was Z's Birthday cake during his simple party at sunday school in church.The theme was Bugs Bunny.

This was his birthday cake at school the following day.The theme was Sponge Bob.

Do you notice the styrofoam "happy birthday" banner on both the cakes? Yes, I just recycled it from the Bugs Bunny cake.

For the second cake, the person I requested to get the cake from the bakeshop mistakenly asked the sales lady to write the greetings on the cake. I was shocked when I saw the writings on the cake but I thank God for his wisdom because I was able to do something about it. Do you notice the red color on the center that was the 'writing' but I used the fork to make a design out of it. :)
