I’ve noticed that alot of the birthday party themes that I feature tend to focus on girls’ parties.  This could be because I only have a daughter and haven’t had the pleasure of planning parties for boys.  But with young boys being huge fans of games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, today I’m featuring an awesome cool electric guitar cake that ROCKS!!!

The finished product looks like it took hours to make, but with the video below, it is much easier to make than it looks.  The video is provided by BettyCrocker.com and Howdini.com

 

If you find that cake too easy to make, you could try this cake featured on Disney’s Family Fun

Now that you have the cake, you are ready to plan a Rockin’ Good Party!

A Fairytale or Princess party are always popular themes for little girl birthday parties. If you don’t have over $2,000 to spend like the couple in my article before this one, here’s an easy to make princess castle cake you can make yourself. These ladies always make it look so easy, but with the step by step video, I think I could make this one myself!

This cake would go well with our Princess brthday theme items. Accent your party with personalized candy wrappers, bubbles, lollipops or even Nabisco snack packs wrapped with our personalized wrappers shown below.  Visit our store at Candy In Disguise to order these, or many other birthday theme items.

Only Martha Stewart could come up with something this creative, Stop and Goo Cars. Can you imagine what this would look like as your birthday party centerpiece?

It does look like a fun project to try with your kids and maybe someone a little more craftier than me will give it a try!

Could these be any cuter for a popcorn or movie themed birthday party ?!?

Here’s the recipe and instructions for these adorable little popcorn cupcakes. Send in some pictures when you make your own.
