Recently, my middle daughter Reese turned four years old. We had to have her party a month after her birthday, due to busy weekends, but she did not seem to mind waiting…
And, to her, it was worth the wait… especially when she saw her cake.Did I mention her Grammy made this cake? And, Grammy is NOT a professional decorator, by any means (no offense, Mom!).
But, seriously… isn’t this an amazing cake? And, it made Reese’s week. She is already talking about next year’s cake! Get your mixer ready, Mom! {It’s kind of funny, because my Mom saw the picture and an article on this exact cake in the newspaper… before I was even approached about offering a giveaway.}
You can make this cake, too, thanks to Betty Crocker and My Blog Spark. They have generously offered one of my readers everything they need to “bake life sweeter” for your little one’s birthday. They even have how-to videos on the BC website.

I know my son would love the train cake. What a fun idea!
I follow through email! Thanks!
Last year I made Keaton a big cake shaped as the #3 and the top was actually made into a railroad track where we put a thomas the train on it. He loved it!! This year he is really into Toy Story and haha I think I am going to need to get more skills to attempt the Woody and Buzz cake he requested. I always make all the cakes because it is something me and Keaton can do together. I love cooking and baking with him and he gets so excited when we do it — build more and more memories with our kids is the best!!
I would love to try the building blocks one, but I’d probably go for the butterfly!
