I have been looking at some ideas for LO's 1st birthday which admittedly is still a few months away and this smash cake thing seems to be all the rage.
However to me it seems messy and kind of a bad example to a kid, like we spend every day telling him not to play with his food and then we spend money on a beautiful cake for him to throw on the floor, it seems needlessly wasteful and messy to me. That being said I also hate the cake smash deal at weddings and didn't do it at ours.
Am I missing something here or is it just not my thing?
