Ideas For A Year Old Boy'S Cake

Your 1-year-old's birthday cake will serve as the inspiration for other decorations.


Your son's first birthday party is a significant milestone and should be celebrated with style. The cake will be the focal point of the birthday party and will serve as the inspiration for your other decorations. Choose something that your son enjoys. Anything bright and colorful is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Does this Spark an idea?


Animals


Creating an animal-themed cake is fun and simple. Create your cake in the shape of his favorite animal by using pans of various sizes for the body parts. For example, to create a puppy cake, use a large round pan for the shape of the body and cupcakes for the paws. Draw the features with icing. A simpler plan is to place small toy animals on the cake, or create cupcakes with different animal designs on them.


Sesame Street


Create a cake in the shape of Elmo, Big Bird, Cookie Monster or any other "Sesame Street" character. If you do not want to make one yourself, your local grocery store or bakery will most likely be able to make one for you. You can purchase small figures at your local dollar store for inexpensive cake decorations.


Winnie the Pooh


Create a cake in the shape of a bee hive, honey pot or even Pooh Bear for a delightful "Winnie the Pooh"-themed cake. Design a scene from one of the stories and include all the characters. Another option is to make cupcakes that have individual designs of the characters, or arrange the cupcakes to look like Pooh Bear.


Jungle


To create a jungle-themed cake, place miniature fake trees, shrubs and animals on the cake. Create a waterfall scene by stacking three different sized sheet cakes. Start with the largest layer on the bottom. Use green icing on the entire cake except for a strip with blue icing for the waterfall. The waterfall should cascade down the three tiers.


Aviation


Most baby boys love airplanes. Bake a regular sheet cake and cover with blue icing. Use white icing for the clouds and place small toy airplanes on the cake. You can use icing for the planes if you wish. Draw clouds in the shape of the birthday boy's name coming from one of the planes.


Musical Instruments


Celebrate your son's first birthday with musical instruments. Bake a simple white sheet cake with black sheet music going across it or a keyboard.
