Lumberjack Smash Cake

November 13, 2017 by Leia

 

My little baby just turned 1!  Where has the time gone?

Lumberjack birthday smash cake

I’ve been searching Pinterest for the last month looking for ideas for his Lumberjack themed first birthday party.  There are SO many cute ideas out there!

However, when it came to the smash cake, I just came up with my own plan.  Just a simple chocolate cake, two layers, made in 4-inch pans.  Then some chocolate frosting and chocolate sprinkles.  Sprinkles were just up the sides, not all the way to the top.  Then I sprinkled some on the top, but just around the edges.

The tree is just candy melts, that I melted in jars and then scooped into small zipper lock bags.  Cut a tiny corner off and “draw” the trees.  I put a piece of parchment paper on a pan and did the trees on that.  I was making these right before I wanted to use them, so I stuck the pan in the freezer so they would set up more quickly.

Anyway, super easy.  And fast. I’m sure you didn’t even need my quick instructions there, the pictures are pretty self explanatory.  Ha.

Hello there!

Hi there! My name is Leia. I love to eat. Good thing I also love to cook and bake. ;)
I think food can bring people together. I value family dinners and sharing good conversations over a slice of pie or some saucy nachos. Food makes people happy, and I want to help with that. Let's dig deeper →
