Artistry and cake-making go hand-in-hand
A artist birthday cake can be really fun to make.
Picture Cake An artist birthday cake can be
absolutely anything. The cake itself is like a sculpture so if the
birthday child loves a certain cartoon character then put a picture of
that character on the cake and pipe on brown or gold frosting around
the edge to look like a frame. You could also find an old art picture
created by the birthday child and have a bakery scan it onto the
frosting of a cake.
Color Palette: Frost a single layer round cake
in white. Using a small glass mark the top with circles and fill each
in with a different
color frosting to represent the paint. Fashion an edible paint brush
out of a Twizzler and fruit rollup (rolled with fringes cut on the
end). Lay this across the pallette. Use crayon candles.
Decorate your own mini cake: This idea for an
artist birthday party is full of creativity and fun! You can use cup
cakes for this but I like to make a thin sheet cake and cut it into
3"x4" rectangle pieces. Each
child gets a piece of cake already frosted white.
Then lay out all sorts of cake decorating items - candy coated chocolates, sprinkles, colored sugar, string licorice, tubes of gel frosting in various colors, etc. Have each child design an individual cake in the birthday child's honor. When finished eat. Put candles in the birthday child's cake to sing "Happy Birthday".
