Making a birthday cake for kids might seem simple but it isn’t. Your kids expect a lot from their birthday cakes, and you need to know their choices well. You need to add some designing techniques and decorating skills to the cakes to perfect them and to make them unique. So here are some tips to make the right cake for children.

Stick with basic flavors: Every kid loves chocolate and vanilla. So, it is the best if you stick to that and concentrate on making an out and out chocolate or vanilla cake. Though kids are becoming adventurous with tastes these days yet these two flavors are always a win-win situation when baking for a kid.

Make it colorful: Yes, lots and lots of color. If you want you can design it too with their favorite color. Add sprinkles, rainbow colors, make buttercream of different colors between the layers of the cake. This might take time but it is all worth it in the end. No parent wants to see their child disappointed. So throw in some bright colors and bring a smile to their faces.

Make it sweet: Do not opt for dark chocolate for a kid. They love milk chocolates and sweet things. You can add cookies, chocolate pieces and many other sweetish things to make the cake sweet and delicious. Keep in mind the preference of the child and bake it. Make fun designs with candies and chocolate icing.

Customize it: You can make a cake with a template in mind. You can design it and personalize it with their favorite movie, character, color, football team or toy. You can make cartoon characters or their own pictures on the cakes too. A lot of times, people also design animal shaped cakes. You can do that too. It will take tons of time but the effort will pay off in the end. If not, you can always order it online or buy it from the store. Personalize the cake as much as you can. Kids love that!

Create it magically: You can add layers, colors, decorations and you can experiment further. You can make a phone shaped cake or a waffle shaped cake. A well-known illusion cake is the waffle cake with a hot air balloon floating above it. Everything is edible and looks incredible.

While you are creating cakes, do not forget fancy candles too. A birthday cake is incomplete without candles. Place a single candle on the cake so that the cake isn’t too spoil with tons of candles on it. Whatever you make, keep in mind to start early if you know it will take tons of time. If you are not much of a baker or do not have so much time to make all this, then you can order birthday cakes online too. You will find a wide range of different shapes, styles and customized cakes on the internet. So, do not worry or hassle with the birthday cake. Internet is here to help!
