easy birthday cake recipes for kidsHave you ever dreamed of making the ideal cake for your kid's birthday? I keep in mind as a kid how thrilled I always was with my Mom's wonderful birthday cake creations and I vowed to make my own kids' cakes one time I had my own relatives. I loved the idea of making a personalized, homemade cake than ordering the traditional sheet cake from our local grocery store. I was nervous beginning out but soon realized that with a little patience and practice somebody can do this!
Here are some helpful hints that will permit even the busiest mothers to bake the ideal birthday cake for their kid:
one.) Don't make your cake from scratch. You can save lots of time by purchasing the boxed cake mixes and they often taste as nice as a cake made from scratch. In fact, at my most recent kid party I was even asked for my cake recipe because it was so yummy!
two.) Start by using a formed character pan. They usually have detailed and easy-to-follow directions. You can also buy them cheaply (check out eBay for affordable used and retired pans).
three.) Use pre-made decorator or royal icing. I am liking Wilton's decorator icing since it tastes nice and is great for piping since it holds its shape well and dries hard.
four.) Use pre-made and pre-colored fondant. My favourite is Satin Ice since it's a pleasant vanilla flavor; unlike some other pre-made fondants, and you can get it in lots of different colors. You can also flavor fondant with sweet flavoring.
five.) Fun cake toppers can make a cake sparkle. If you are making a more traditional rectangular or circular cake, you can dress it up with fun cake toppers. This is an simple and affordable way to make a theme cake.
