Sunnyboy recently saw a boxed caterpillar party cake for £5 at our local supermarket and decided to buy it. I explained that it was expensive and suggested we buy the ingredients to make our own cake instead. Our caterpillar cake didn't look like the one in the shop, or even much like a caterpillar, but it was a lot cheaper and Sunnyboy was very pleased with it.

ReplyDeleteYou made a cake and a wonderful memory, too!
ReplyDeleteMuch, much nicer than a bought one and would taste better too and such fun to do. A x
ReplyDeleteI think it looks fabulous. The reason I feel this way is that Sunnyboy made it with your help. How awesome is that? Very Awesome!!
ReplyDeleteYou are a wonderful mum letting him explore his world under your guiding care! Keep it up!
Thanks for sharing.
There's nothing better than homemade cake! Looks gorgeous too!... And baking with the kids is always sooo much fun
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy. I bet it tasted so much better than the shop bought one - and no nasties in there. Glad Sunnyboy enjoyed it xx
ReplyDeletehow cool is that! go sunnyboy
ReplyDeleteAwwww...how sweet! The memories are sweeter than the original longing, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed you gave it a go--I'm terrible at trying to recreate things. Martha Stewart has no competition from the Kroeker house, that's for sure.
You've sure got a knack for making things work!
Very sweet pictures, what wonderful memories!
ReplyDeleteThe cake looks yummm!! : )
Hmmm, a good training for Sunnyboy. Maybe he can be a future pastry chef or cake baker!That is fun!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I had plans to make a caterpillar cake just using chocolate cupcakes zigzagged on a tray - a face on the first and feet on the rest - but the party never happened...
ReplyDeleteThat looks cute and yummy! The best combination of all.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious - and I imagine sunnyboy enjoyed making it a lot more than he would have enjoyed buying the one in the store.
ReplyDeleteAnd it is a very unique looking caterpiller that looks yummy! Great Job Sunnyboy!
ReplyDeletePrecious! And, I bet you will have better memories of it since you made it yourselves!
ReplyDeleteSunnyboy looks like he is having so much fun with this!!
ReplyDeleteI think it's cute and the best part was he got to use his imagination to create it.
ReplyDeleteHow fun!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great and tasty project.
