Last weekend I had such a great time making this tricycle cake for a little boys 2nd birthday. The inspiration for the cake came from
these cute tricycle invitations and cupcake toppers from Esty shop
The Green Grass Grows.
Sadly it rained non-stop the day of the Birthday so the original party plan of all the kids bringing their tricycles/ bikes to the local park to play didn't work out. It sounds like the birthday boy still had a great day and the cake was a real hit.
The cake was my favorite
vanilla cake, double the recipe was enough to make the two layer 8 inch cake, the 6 inch cake and 8 cupcakes to match. Both the cake and cupcakes were frosted in yummy vanilla buttercream and covered with fondant.
Happy 2nd Birthday Rocco!!
The tricycle is soo cute!! Bet the birthday boy LOVED it!

ReplyDeleteKara - the cake looked absolutely sensational and was a huge hit at Rocco's party, but not just that - unlike lots of cakes that just look good, this one tasted fantastic! Adults and kids alike gobbled it up in no time flat :D
