I made her a big Moose and Zee sheet cake, it was a big hit and she loved it. She had like 3 cakes that year though haha, mine, MIL's, and my mom's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181740 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 10:34:22 +0000 heffalump 181740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Lol, maybe you can find an easier non dairy dessert for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181735 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 10:31:31 +0000 Rubies 181735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Oh, just because of her milk allergy...I found a baker who does non-dairy cakes but I'm not so sure it's worth it! Then I found recipes so that I can bake it myself but again, not sure it's worth it! And I can barely bake things that come from a box! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181712 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 10:09:58 +0000 purrpletulips 181712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and no. LO had two first birthday parties, one with family and one with friends. For the family party, we purchased a cake and received the "smash" cake for free. For the friend party, I made a cake and just gave her the first piece cut. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181711 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 10:09:42 +0000 heffalump 181711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Why no cake? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181703 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 10:04:06 +0000 Alivoo01 181703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: that's such a cute cake!!</p> <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: birthday cake at your 1 year is a MUST and right of passage for a baby!! Feed him some frosting. ;)</p> <p>At some of the grocery stores in Dallas, if you order a cake with them, they give you a free smash cake for your LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181649 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 09:28:10 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 181649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Papa Y doesn't want Baby Y to have ANY, which makes me kinda sad. I can overrule him ... maybe just a tiny piece :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181647 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 09:26:25 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 181647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Those cakes are adorable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181554 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 08:42:23 +0000 chopsuey 181554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!

And the frosting wasn't as sweet at the guest cake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181546 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 08:36:44 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 181546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made a big cake, for the guests and used some batter to make a mini cake for Mavrick. Bascially a 9" round cake that I used a glass to cut in 3 small round layers.</p> <p>This is what his cake looked like<br /> <img src="http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac207/blushink/Mavis_minicake.jpg" /> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181540 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 08:31:17 +0000 Rubies 181540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to get LO her own smash cake but have decided against it. She might not even get a cupcake! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181509 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 08:04:58 +0000 Grace 181509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, cupcakes are a good idea. I took a cake decorating class and can't wait to be able to make kids' cakes. I'm anti-smash though, so my LO would just have a piece of her own, same as everyone else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181393 Thu, 07 Jun 2012 03:51:53 +0000 looch 181393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As in a smash cake no, because I spent $200 on a special tiered cake from the bakery just so I wouldn't have to be dealing with baking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181040 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:11:17 +0000 Honeybee 181040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we got a coupon for a free smash cake for DD's birthday, so she got that. She fed most of it to the dogs, though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181039 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:11:06 +0000 mrsmenow 181039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had one of those giant cupcake cakes and then I made regular cupcakes with the extra batter and that is what she used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181036 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:06:06 +0000 Andrea 181036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She got a large cupcake to use as a smash cake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181027 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 16:53:03 +0000 autumnlove 181027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'll make or buy a white cake with white frosting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-get-their-own-cake-for-their-1st-birthday#post-181025 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 16:51:40 +0000 heffalump 181025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I see that a lot of people do that now. But I'm way too lazy to make a whole (even if it's little) cake just for her. We'll be having cupcakes, and she'll get one of those. </p>
