/It’s pretty simple when it comes to cakes!..  If you enjoy baking and feel confident that you can rock out a cake that meets your standards without going bananas or neglecting the rest of the party planning then- then I say: go for it!   Every birthday I go through dilemma of baking or buying my cake.  I’m very hands on when it comes to my events so I always prefer to bake my cake.  But what if there is no time or you don’t have the skills to bake your cake?  No problem!  Just head on over to your local bakery shop or your local Supermarket bakery department and buy a lovely cake there!   Most stores have ready to buy, plain sheet cakes as well as pretty round cakes in their refrigerated bakery section. You can often have them add some coordinating finishing touches on the cake or you can take it home and do it yourself.  Of course they also have some themed cakes that may go great with your party and all that’s left is the candles and done!

/Above is picture of a princess cake for my niece’s birthday.  Since she is my niece and God daughter, I wanted to give her a cake for her birthday.  She wanted a princess cake, and since I don’t have a working oven right now (another story for another time), I went to my local BJs store and ordered her cake a few days prior to her party.  They even added the princess toppers and mini ring.  The baker even gave us the princess tiara and wand free of charge! (They usually offer you one or the other) this cake was huge and fed about 30-35 people for only $25.00!  Awesome!
