I have been trying to find an alternative to birthday cakes since Hattie's big day is this week. All the suggestions I can find online are things like cupcakes or cookie cakes. Really, Internet? The whole idea is to avoid putting a ton of sugar in my girl's tiny body.
But today I have finally found some good ones! Hooray! Here they are, in case any other moms are looking for ideas.
1. Edible Arrangements. Fruit or veggie kabobs in a container that looks like a birthday cake.
2. Watermelon cupcakes. Cut out mini cakes of watermelon, serve on a platter. Put a candle in the birthday girl's "cake"!
3. Stack "Cake". Stack up something like books, clothes or boxed toys and decorate, like a diaper cake at a baby shower.
4. Box "Cake". Decorate a box with a lift-off lid. Fill it with little toys and favors for the other guests.
5. Fruit Pizza or Fruit salad
6. Meatloaf "Cake" decorated with ketchup
7. Banana or other fruit bread(I personally love strawberry bread)
8. Fruit cake. Click on the link. Its BEAUTIFUL.
9. Wholesome Baby Foods has some nice recipes if you do want a cake, but want to do it without the sugar, etc.
