10 Birthday cake ideas for girls

 

The custom of celebrating birthday with cakes and candles hail from early Greek culture where people used to celebrate the birthday of their Goddess during every 6th day of the Lunar month and Greeks used to take the cake to the temple of Artemis who is the Goddess of fertility and protector of mothers during child birth.
The smokes of the candles are believed to carry prayers to the Gods for their wish to come true.
Every year since the birth of my child I bake a homemade cake for her during her birthday. I had initially learnt baking a cake only for this purpose. As she has grown over the years from a bundle of joy to a beautiful toddler and a pre-teen now, baking during her birthdays has become a ritual and a source of pleasure and happiness . It gives me an opportunity to bond with her whether it is asking for her suggestions in decoration or making her an active assistant.

In this post I want to share with some cake recipes suggestions which you can prepare easily on your kids birthday. I had faced a lot of difficulties in baking initially but it improved over the years.

Pool cake

This is a nice idea decorating the cake like a pool with toys inserted and the border done with chocolate bars. For the color I used sweet lime and orange  syrup which has the flavor of sweet lime and a very pleasant blue color. click here for the recipe

Chocolate mousse cake

A chocolate cake filled with chocolate sauce inside and layered with chocolate mousse. The chocolate mousse was prepared by beating cream cheese , eggs and whipped cream together . The cake should be prepared in a spring form mold so that the cheese cake topping can set. and then its decorated with fondant flowers.

Descendants cake

Its a regular egg-less vanilla cake ,filled with cream flavored with strawberries and blue berries crush and then covered with a white and violet fondant. before wrapping the cake with fondant rolled and cut accordingly ,you need to cover the cake with a butter cream icing . Butter cream icing is prepared by whipping butter and sugar powder together, followed by condensed milk.this helps the fondant to stick to the cake.
I have got this descendants picture from the web printed on a sugar sheet and pasted on the fondant covered cake. The cake is then decorated with whipped cream.

 

Rose cake

Make a simple vanilla sponge cake with egg or egg-less.Soak the cake with rose syrup. Slice  the cake into halves and sandwich the cake with  whipped cream flavored with  rose syrup. Cover the cake with a cream cheese frosting and then decorate with red butter cream icing.
