Smash Cake

Cute Clown Smash Cake with Buttercream Icing perfect for your child's first birthday! Perfect for a Circus theme or just cute for any kid birthday party. Different tips were used to create this wonderful cake. See below for tip decorating suggestions.

How to Decorate the Clown Smash Cake

1. Bake the cake and let cool completely. Using white buttercream, ice the entire cake.

2. Using a large icing tip such as 1M, gently press the bottom of the tip into the icing where you want the nose. Using a regular-size tip, do the same for both of the eyes.

3. Outline the eyes, nose, hat and diamonds. Then, draw the mouth, and make circles for the hair using a #3 tip.

4. Fill in the diamonds and the hat with a #16 star tip.

5. Using a #104 tip, make the ruffled collar and bottom of the hat.

6. Use a round #7 tip, pipe the dots along the bottom and in the middle of the diamonds.

7. Use a round #12 tip to fill in the eyes and nose of the clown.

Is your child a Wiggles Fan?! Here are two wonderful Blue and Red Wiggles Smash Cakes. Who is your child's favorite Wiggle? Is it Sam (Yellow), Murray (Red), Jeff (Purple) or Anthony (Blue).

Bake a small round cake and let cool entirely. Then cover the entire cake with red, blue, yellow or purple...your favorite Wiggles color. Then add rolled balls, small circles or music notes in the other colors. Cut or shape stars and add to curly cue wires. Add the birthday child's name in the center and you have the perfect Wiggle Smash cake!

What a fun and creative idea graciously shared by Nadine. This would make a perfect twin theme birthday cake idea too!

Cutest Polka Dot Smash Cake for that first birthday party. The theme was polka dots and this is the perfect cake!

Frosted with white butter cream. The "polka dots" are red, blue and green concentric circles made of fondant cut with different size circle cutters. Smaller circles were attached to the larger one using frosting.

Round colorful balls decorate the base of the cake.
