There are so many amazing cakes around these days. I could sit on Pinterest for hours looking at them. The cake is one of the most popular aspects of a kid’s party. Everyone loves cake time! Having said that you don’t have to put out a piece of art to makes kids happy but here are some of my favourite cakes at the moment for inspiration if you are planning your next cake.
Pinata
Kids go crazy for the piñata cake. Not only are they gorgeous but they are so fun. When the cake is cut open and the lollies fall out – the excitement on kid’s faces is such a wonderful thing - you can’t help but love the smiles and excitement.
There are some great videos on youtube showing you how to make one.

Rainbow
These are a bit involved as they require many layers but the outcome is beautiful. Rainbow is also such a fun party theme and it compliments other themes such as unicorn or fairy.
You can add rainbow decorations to your home for a beautiful party.

Drip cakes
The drip look is super popular at the moment. It looks like someone has melted a glazed frosting and it’s dripped down the sides of the cake. It ends up with a beautiful effect that any little girl would be thrilled to have as their cake. Here is a great blog on how to make one.

Black frosting
Ok this might not sound like a kids cake but done right it can be really amazing. I adore this glam rock cake from sweetapolita. This is one of the most amazing cakes I’ve ever seen. You can also watch a video of this cake being made.

Mirror glaze
There are some beautiful mirror glazes out there. Some of these cakes look too good to cut into! These will delight everyone but beware of any small kids who may want to put their fingers in it before the party!
Marble and metal
The marble look is one of the most popular at the moment. They look amazing in tiered cakes. This may be a bit much for a kid’s party but still nice for some inspiration! Adding metallic onto cakes lets your princess have a mature beautiful cake.
Works of art
Adding things like doughnuts, macaroons and other embellishments can turn a cake into a fabulous work of art. I love the cakes from unbirthday bakery. They aren’t just cakes they are masterpieces. Lottie and Belle based in Perth also make the most amazing cakes. Go to their Instagram page for some inspiration.

Donut cakes
One donut is never enough so when they form a cake you a delicious and fun cake. These are easy to do – you just need to be able to stack well! Throw some flowers, flags or sprinkles on for some extra flair!
I hope you found some inspiration for your next cake!
