Today's blog post is featuring some of our recent cakes that we created for children-related events. From birthday parties to Christenings, baby showers to gender reveal parties, every cake was so much fun to make and we hope just as much fun to eat! First up are three birthday cakes. Each one is so different but we loved each and every one of them! We love doing children's birthday cakes because we can use tons of bright colours and lots of adorable little decorations. The first cake is a second birthday cake for a lucky little boy who LOVES trucks. We made his first birthday cake last year (a super cute dump truck!) so this year we went with a construction truck, filled to the brim with chocolate brownies. We also included an adorable little fondant moose, who may or may not have stolen a bite of brownie ;) The second cake was for a Cookie Monster themed first birthday party. And, of course, you can't have a cookie monster cake without fresh baked chocolate ch...

This was a fun cake to make :). We were asked to create a Noah's Ark themed cake for three little ones, which meant we could go crazy making adorable little pairs of animals! We started by making a chocolate cake with delicious vanilla buttercream for the bottom tier, and a carrot cake with our cream cheese icing for the top tier. Then it was animal time! Looks like this stop on Noah's journey was the jungle. We created elephants, lions, jaguars, pandas, alligators, and our favourites, the monkeys! And of course we couldn't forget the ocean life, so we included some cute little fishies and octopus. Finally, what would a Noah's Ark cake be without the ark! We created the ark out of rice krispie treats and added on the ocean-bound pandas. And voila, the finished product! Hope this family enjoys their cake, and of course their special day for Emma, Reed and Hannah :) Be sure to check us out on facebook at www.facebook.com/SugarbirdCakery and o...
