Smash Cake For A First Birthday

Use one box of cake mix and one tub of icing. I used French Vanilla cake and Creamy French Vanilla icing and added a little bit of red food colouring to make it pink.

I didn’t want to buy special small cake pans to bake the little cakes, so I used two round 4″ Corningware dishes I found in my cupboards, and they worked perfectly! Definitely check your cupboards before you head out to buy a small cake pan – as long as it’s oven safe, and the size you want,

then you can use it! Even an oven safe mug would work! Once cooled Cut off the rounded part with a sharp knife to flatten them out Take some icing and spread it in the middle to make a middle frosting layer.

Put the other cake on top of it. If you want the icing to make the large rose like flowers like mine, use a large open star icing tip and a piping bag. Make little circles, starting at the center of the circle and working your way out.

Continue making these little circle flowers and fill in the other gaps as needed until you have covered the top. Then use the same technique on the side of the smash cake.
