Birthday Cake Theme - Tips and Ideas for Selection

When it comes to a birthday cake theme, you will likely find everything you can imagine going on cakes these days.

The more elaborate the theme, the more the cake will typically cost; unless you are able to bake and decorate cakes such as these on your own.

You can find everything from Barbie™ birthday cakes to golfing and animal cakes, and even your favorite movie can be made into a cake theme for birthdays. For you, this means more flexibility and imagination, and for your birthday girl or guy, this means a cake that will be the star of the show.

Where to find this type of cake

If you're on the hunt for a really great cake with a cool birthday cake theme but aren't the cake baker that you would like to be, you might be surprised to find that you can find some really wonderful themed birthday cakes at your local grocery store. Most grocery stores that you go to now offer a wide selection of beautifully made birthday and special occasion cakes at prices that won't break your bank. So, if your 12 year old daughter must have that special cake, you could consider stopping at your favorite grocery store to check out the selection.

Many of these stores require a couple of days between the order time and the time you pick your cake up, so try to place your order in a reasonable amount of time to ensure that you are able to get the cake you wanted and everything is exactly as you hoped it to be.

You might also want to consider going to your local bakery for a cake with a birthday cake theme. Many bakeries specialize in this type of cake and you may find that you have more options when it comes to fillings and designs of cakes. In fact, you might be surprised to find that many bakeries which focus on cake designs consider it to be an art and treat each special cake design as such.

When you are looking for a birthday cake theme that just doesn't have a pre-made design, a bakery might be where you want to go to find your special cake.

Make it yourself

Now, if you're a little bit creative and fairly confident in the kitchen, you may want to consider baking your own themed birthday cake. If you've never done this before, consider giving yourself some time and be ready to try to make another cake if the one you start on doesn't turn out quite right.

When it comes to birthday cake themes, you might be surprised to find that there are some really wonderful, easy ideas out there that you can do right in your own kitchen that your whole family will love. Consider fun flower cupcakes for the birthday girl who loves nature, or, for the family member who loves the "great American burger", consider making a cheeseburger ice cream cake served up with an order of fries.

No matter what your budget or talents, there are many different ways to make sure that your birthday girl or guy gets a cake with a birthday cake theme that they will remember forever. You can try your hand at something fun and make it yourself with the many excellent recipes available in magazines, books and online, or you can choose to have your favorite grocery store or bakery make you the designer cake your occasion deserves.
