This is the birthday cake for the space party as requested by my 5 year old. He wanted rocket ships and astronaunts, not aliens. With that in mind, I started looking around for rocket ship cakes. A site I love to visit is coolest-birthday-cakes.com because it shows photos of real people making real cakes - I'm not talking pros here. It's right up my alley because I want to make birthday cakes for my kids and they really don't care how silly (or ugly) it turns out. I just need ideas. This cake is a hybrid of several things I saw. I really liked the idea of putting Super Bear's photo on the ship (just be sure to put a piece of wax paper under the photo) to personalize it. As you can see I used Twizzlers for the lettering and boosters, M&M's and Mike & Ike's for the decorations. The candles went into the rocket boosters at an angle for "fire power", so when it was lit up, it was way cute.
I also had fun making these astronaut cookies for the school party. They were a blast!
