My 5 year old has been steadily requesting this birthday cake for the last two months. He said today that it’s exactly what he wanted and that I made it properly. “Strawberry chocolate vanilla cake with a blue and pink swirl, yellow stars and rainbow sprinkles!” I am a happy mama today.

    Ok but did you have the 3 flavor ice cream with it? Seriously though, this is a great kids cake, I can see why your son loved it!

    Dang, mama delivered!  

    Have to say, the kid has good taste.  Knew a cool cake combo and design.  Get him invested in design or baking.

    Did you immediately tear up? That’s pretty high praise!

    Major parent W! Way to go 🙂

  18. I love this! My little fairy princess of a girl asked for a very specific cake as a tot, I got it on video thankfully, it’s adorable, but since her mind changed all the time I ended up making something else (that she loved, no worries on that point.). HOWEVER, I made the cake for her 15th birthday and she was so excited she could barely speak. She finally got her “chocolate cake with pink and purple frosting and pink AND purple gum on the top.”

    this reminds me of atomic cake my aunt used to make for me when i was younger. it was chocolate, vanilla, and banana with pieces other fillings. was delicious! i bet this one was too.

    I love that he said “you made it well” its funny because I’ve been watching cooking shows and usually someone with a lot of skill will make that comment but since he is only 5 I picture him being a master chef!!! Haha this is terrific, thanks for making me smile!

    It looks so cute! I promise you your son will remember this when he gets older. I still remember when my mom would do something similar, and I hold that memory very dear. Good job’

    Great job! Making a 5 year old wish come true is heartwarming

    Good mama! When my son was 5 he had to be a pink butterfly for Halloween. He wore that thing until 3rd grade. Now it’s safely packed away until he has babies and I get to share with them!

    You did a great job following your baby’s vision, as well as raising him — I absolutely ADORE that he had zero qualms asking for pink. Society starts pressuring them so young — clearly you’ve taught him to just be himself. ❤️

    As a little kid who also had an extremely specific vision of a dream birthday cake it is so awesome that you catered to his exact request AND it turned out beautiful. Congratulations on an excellent cake I’m glad you and the little guy were both pleased with it! Also those little matching cupcakes are just the cutest.
