Hello Kitty cake

Let's start our birthday cake designs for kids with this incredible Hello Kitty cake from c.r.avery

This was made for a lucky two year old. Each tier has 3 layers and is covered with fondant, chocolate flowers and faux fur trim. I think you'll agree it's both cool and cute! (as well as amazing!)

Next we have a Chocolate Fudge cake with white chocolate buttercream, decorated in the style of the childrens TV show "In the Night Garden."

It was made by Sugarbloom Cupcakes for a two year old child called YuChen - the cake also features Iggle Piggle, Makka Pakka and Upsy Daisy.

Here's another design by Sugarbloom Cupcakes - this time a Thomas the Tank Engine cake!

There were twelve coconut cupcakes with white chocolate buttercream each decorated as a character from the Thomas Series. The Thomas cutting cake seen below was a chocolate fudge cake with white chocolate buttercream, with handmade, edible decorations. Mmm, yes please ;)
