Around here, as the sweltering days of summer come to an end drag on, we begin birthday season.
Save Katie's eighth birthday (the day after Ellie was born), I have made all the kids birthday cakes.
Store bought!
Roses all over
Dairy free carrot cake
Ninjas & snakes
Simple cakes
Cakes with candy
Pumpkin Pie instead of cake
Cakes iced in peanut butter frosting and drizzled chocolate
Cakes in the shape of a ball
Crown cakes
Monkey cakes
Ladybug cakes
Regular cakes, with the standard roses
Number 1 cakes
Cat in the hat cakes
Gymnastics cakes
Castle cakes
And even a Fruit 'cake,' though that was for my mom
And in May, we have Justin's cookie cake most years.
It is fun to ask what they want from year to year. Flavors and styles change. And I get to do some baking and decorating. And they have picked up on the fun, and the older too like to bake and decorate too.
