Remember these cookies I made for a baby shower last year? Well this little guy just turned 1 on Saturday!!
His favorite thing is Yo Gabba Gabba, so naturally the parents went all out!
After much deliberation, we decided on one large cake for the guests, and one personal little cupcake for Baby Jude! It was his first time having sugar, and we had some dietary restrictions, so I made him a Dairy Free cupcake with Vegan Frosting… recipe will come later this week!
Without further ado, here is the cake I made for Jude!
On the sides of this tall cake I did each of the characters…
(oops we had a little cake accident next to Toodee up there..)
I surprised the parents and made the inside of the cake like a rainbow cake, but in the colors of each of the characters… the Brobee layer is even striped!
Poor little guy was exhausted after such a fun party!
In case you were wondering, yes there were a lot of colors on this cake!
Here is how I made the stripes for the green Brobee layer:
Pour a small amount of batter into the center of the pan. With the other color, pour a small amount of batter directly in the center of the pan again, right on top the first circle. Go back to the first color and do this again, right in the center of the circles. As you add more, the layers push out and create the above ringed affect. When you cut into the cake, you will see the vertical stripes! (This can be done with black and white or chocolate and vanilla to look like zebra stripes!)

I came back to look at this again because I love Yo Gabba Gabba and this cake! My niece would die if she had a cake like this on her birthday!
