They had recently been to their cousin's birthday party and requested that I make a similar cake, covered in Smarties and bordered with Kitkat. I looked it up on Pinterest, and it seemed simple enough. After breakfast, we baked the cake. Less than an hour later, it was out of the oven, and cooling on a rack. The Girls were anxious to decorate, and it was difficult to explain that we needed to let it sit for a while...
The rest of the day was uneventful...Before lunch we went out to play in the snow while the sleeping baby stayed back with Papa, who incidentally, was working from home. Later on in the afternoon, while our toddler napped, our preschooler coloured two birthday cards: one for Papa, and a larger one for herself!
After dinner, we decorated the cake together, and what fun we had! First we placed 40 individual Kitkat sticks around the cake onto some sticky icing. Next, we poured two large containers of Smarties on top. We didn't have any candles, so we simply sang him Happy Birthday, then dug into a very tasty and very sweet cake!
5 minutes after digging in! |
