Balloon Cake

published by ceegirl on May 30, 2011

Just for fun,give each child an inflated ballon to decorate; have a balloon breaking contest-hand out inflated balloons and a prize for the first child to break his by sitting on it.

Balloons-how carefree and fun! For this party, inflate balloons, write invitations on each with marking pen and deflate them. Slip each one into an envelope with instruction to blow it up to read its message.

Method: Bake devils food cake mix in oblong pan, 13×9x2 inches, as directed on package. Prepare creamy white frosting mix as directed on package or Butter Cream Frosting (below). Frost cake.

Arrange pastel mini wafers for balloons in a cluster in upper corner of cake. Use shoestring licorice for balloon strings; bring all strings to one point in lower corner of cake. Insert candles in cake as directed.
