Hi! I noticed the green crinkled paper that you put on the table for grass. It looks great and so do both cakes! Here’s a frugal decor tip: I found some Easter grass a couple of months ago on clearance for 10 for $1.00, so naturally I HAD to buy some. I thought I might use it as gift basket filler, but when my son decided on a Minecraft party for his 13th birthday (I am thrilled he still wants a party) I used the grass as decor. I bought brown plastic tablecloths for a dollar and scattered the Easter grass on the top so that the tables resembled grass blocks. It turned out really cute.
I also made a grass block cake, but didn’t buy any special pans or anything. I just used the 8×8 pyrex baking dishes I already own, put a piece of waxed paper on the bottom before pouring in the cake mix (on sale at Kroger for 10 for $10), and they turned out great! For those who can’t purchase special cake decorating bags, tips, etc., I have had success with snipping a tiny hole in the corner of a sturdy sandwich bag (and even the corner of a powdered sugar bag when I ran out of sandwich bags) and piping icing out of it. If you get the hole small enough, the icing will come out in little strands like grass. You could probably even poke several holes in the corner with a large needle to replicate the grass tip. I also had an idea for the red squares: you could cut them out of fruit leather if you wanted, and they would probably turn out cute.
Thanks for the frugal tips! It truly baffles me when people equate quality with price, thus paying $75 or $100 for a cake that probably cost $5 or $10. In my town, some people seem to want to say, “Oh, I ordered my cake from ___________(I won’t say the name of the local overpriced bakery)” to convey some degree of prestige”.
Oh that is a great tip! I love it. Yes, I agree…. there is no need to pay so much for a birthday cake!
I loved all of your tips for the cakes, I pride myself on being old school any trying to almost every thing diy so all of your advice is music to my ears. am so glad I found your page.
Thanks so much Taisha!
These instructions were a piece of cake to execute! (Pun intended). My 12 year old loved it and it cost us about $10. Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for sharing! I’m so glad it worked for you!
Wanted to clarify…did you use a whole cake box for one 8×8 pan even though box says it makes 2 8×8?
Yes, I did. That way it was really full.
I have easy recipe for barbie. Somewhat time consuming but beautiful. Also made with 3 cake mixes, icing of choice and food coloring. No cutting shapes required. Let me know if you would like a picture and steps.
I would love to know how you did it Lorey.
Thank you for posting this easy to follow, step by step tutorial! You helped me be The Hero for my little girls 8th birthday.
In preparing the red squares for the topping, I used a small package of red fondant that was left over from something from Christmas. Worked great. But as my kids helped me roll it out with powdered sugar and sampled the scraps, I wondered if an ‘Air Head’ or ‘Laughy Taffy’ candy would work just as well…
Also, my kids pointed out that they thought the finished cake was too tall (what a thing to complain about!). They showed me the cake in the game – the one with the white frosting & red squares – and I have to agree with them.
So if ya only have 2 boxes of cake/2 layers, you’ll probably be ok 😉
How funny!
Woohoo! I’m so happy!
HI Carrie, I have a question I am going to make this cake this weekend for my son’s 10th birthday party, Did you put the cake in the refrigerator before you applied the cinnamon? I just wanted to make sure I do it right!
I would.
Thanks so much for this awesome recipe!! It came out great & my 10 year old son and his friends thought the same!!
Thank you! I made this cake for my son’s birthday yesterday, and he loved it.
