This was a “smash cake” for a one year old’s first birthday party with a Dr. Seuss theme. The cake is made up of 3 layers, using my 6 inch round pan. I always just use Betty Crocker cake mixes and they turn out perfect every time. This one was a white cake mix. I made homemade buttercream, but also used a can of store-bought black icing in a can. I used all of the Dr. Seuss books we had around the house for some inspiration and just freehanded the images onto the sides of the cake, first with the colored frosting then outlining and adding details in black. On the front is the Cat’s Hat, and one red fish, one blue fish, on the backside of the cake are two Dr. Suess-ish trees. On the top I wrote the birthday boy’s name, along with a few more black squiggles. Unfortunately I was slightly crunched for time when I made this cake, otherwise I think I would have made the red and white hat a little better. Oh well!
