I need a good idea for a birthday cake. I am only inviting 4 people so it has to be a round one.

This is my invitation...

I like the colors pink a brown together. Im turning thirteen. I am also having publix make it. Please give me some ideas

I have the image of the cake and recipe.

18 tablespoons (2 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 cups sugar
6 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
8 ounces (about 1 cup) sour cream, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 lemon, zested
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
For the frosting:
3/4 pound (3 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 pounds confectioners' sugar, sifted
9 tablespoons milk
3 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
14 drops pink food coloring (rose petal shade)

Pink , white, and brown candy, for decorating


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Butter and flour a 9-inch cake pan, a 6-inch cake pan, and a 3-inch cake pan.

To make the cake, cream the butter and sugar on medium-high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. On medium speed, add the eggs, 2 at a time, then the sour cream, vanilla, and lemon zest, scraping down the bowl as needed. Mix well. Sift together the flour, cornstarch, salt, and baking soda. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir just until smooth. Finish mixing by hand to be sure the batter is well mixed. Proportionately divide the batter between the 3 cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula, and bake as follows: the 9-inch pan for 45 minutes, the 6-inch pan for 35 to 40 minutes and the 3-inch pan for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean in each cake. Cool in the pans to room temperature.

For the frosting, cream the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix on low speed for 1 to 2 minutes, until thickened. Add the food coloring and turn the mixer off. Using a spatula, fully incorporate the color into the frosting.

Frost each cake separately, saving some frosting for decoration. Chill the cakes before stacking.

Place the 9-inch cake on a plate. Center the 6-inch cake on top of the 9-inch cake. Center the 3-inch cake on top of the 6-inch cake.

For the decoration, pipe or spoon the remaining frosting around the base of each cake and around the top edge of the 3-inch cake. Finish decorating with the pieces of candy.

My DS turns 1 at the end of February. Birthday invitations have been sent out, I've got the decorations (Winnie the Pooh theme), and have a milkless, eggless, nutless, butterless (he's got allergies!) recipe for his chocolate birthday cake!!!

The only thing I'm missing is his birthday present. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good gift to get a 1 year old? I don't want to spend too much money... $25 - $50.

Thanks!

We got our daughter this car for Christmas (she will be 1 on Feb. 7):

And she absolutely loves it. You would think she's in a parade when we go around the neighborhood in it, the way she beeps the horn and waves at people! Anyway, we only paid $39.99 for it at Sam's Club, so maybe you can find a less expensive website for it!

Im looking for it to kind of flow, or ryme! thanks everyone!!

try this.


We're having a birthday at my house,
My fifth or so I'm told.
We're having cake and ice cream too,
I hope the ice cream's cold.
So come on over, I hope you can,
If I may be so bold.
And help me celebrate the fact,
That I am five years old.

I always make our birthday invitations and cakes etc, to me that is a very important part of the party/event if you have a nice idea for cars themed invitations please share! I can't think of anything! aaarrrgg!!
..... I know how to make them, I just can't decide what i want to make them say inside, i like catchy things, i want to write about two paragraphs inside of them.

i saw you wanted to know how to make tires out of cake for his birthday cake
and you can use donuts!!!
normal donuts and put frosting on them,
or you can buy chocolate covered donuts and just use those!

~HAVE FUN!!!!~
