THE Pizza

After your brain gets passed the "pizza-ness" of this cake, it was pretty good.
My kids were the main decoraters on this one. "Cheese" has never been so fun to make.
Used cut out fruit roll-up for pepperoni, chocolate covered raisins for sausage (although I think Milk Duds would of been better), sprinkles for green onions, and some Cake Mate Gel was used to make the olives. Oh and just a side note, just buy Better Crocker Cupcake Icing for the "sauce." Dying red frosting is such a pain.
Serve on a pizza tray or out of a pizza box for an added touch.

Plants vs. Zombies

Apparently, the Winter Melon has the coolest weapons
and the Gargantuar and his Imp are super awesome.
So here was our attempt....
Zombie made out of gray craft foam (markers & goggly eyes!) and placed standing. It was my first time using the "grass" tip. So forgiving. Love it!
Traditional butter cream frosting can be made with non-dairy milk of your choice and Blue Bonnet Light, which is dairy-free. Just note that it had a much higher water content and so plan on adding less "milk" and more powdered sugar.
And in case you want the Wheat-free, Gluten-free cake recipe, buy this book. It's our favorite.
No really. Buy it. You won't regret it!

Barbie

The traditional 80's Barbie cake. (She LOVED it!)
P.S. Used box cake mix without milk (Western Family) and just added a can of Sprite.
Makes a more dense, egg-free, milk-free cake.
And as always, traditional butter cream frosting can be made with non-dairy milk of your choice and Blue Bonnet Light, which is dairy-free. Just note that it had a much higher water content and so plan on adding less "milk" and more powdered sugar.

Cars take 2

I've done this one before, but Lightning McQueen is always a winner with the 2-year olds.
(Looks good even if I did forget the spoiler.)

Semi Truck



Used two loaf pans to bake the cake in. Cut one of them in half and shaped it a little to look like the actually truck. Mini doughnut halves were used as tires. Toothpicks were used to hold the top tires on, crossing each other as they were stuck through. The speed limit sign, or age limit, was made from the other half of the loaf.
