Birthday Fun
My kid wanted a LEGO Birthday Cake... So my wife got her creative hat on and went to work. Here's how she did it. |

Overview
So my kids REALLY enjoy LEGO! LEGO everything! So a while backYou'll need:
- Three Rectangular Cakes (Any Flavor, we chose "Rainbow White Cake")
- Several Batches of Chocolate Chip Cookies (or you favorite kind).
- One Over-sized Bottle Cap from a large three liter bottle.
- Or some other round object the size you want.
- * She did find that the ridges in the bottle cap tended to stick to the cookies making them hard to get out. She destroyed several. Finding something with not inside edges could be good.
- White Frosting
- Food Coloring
- Baking Sheet (Or Large Presentation Dish, once it's built you kind of don't pick it up).
The steps:
- Use REAL LEGO bricks to build your model.
- Bake the Cakes and Cookies.
- Use the cookie cutter/bottle cap to cut as many round little cookies as you want.
- Cut off the top layer, making it flat. Frost the first cake.
- Leave any area you are stacking on flat. The exposed area frost several cookies, stacked on each other and place those on top to make the LEGO DOT look.
- Keep Stacking layer by layer.
- Add Real LEGO toys on top.
Pictures Tell The Real Story:
Cost
Very Cheap. Didn't count the cost on this one, but it's a few box cake mixes from the store, cookies mix, frosting, time.The Actual LEGO's to put on top the cake were the most expensive part, but that would have been wrapped as a present anyway had we not done this.
Kids
My kids REALLY enjoyed this!
