DH made DS's 1st birthday cake - sponge cake decorated with fruits and cream. Healthy and everyone was able to eat it (used less sugar than usual ..) Another idea that I like is the pancake (crepes are better than the American type of pancake in my opinion) birthday cake. layer it, cover it with cream, or nutella, or whatever, fruits and candle ... and you have a delicious homemade birthday cake :)

The chocolate cake from Cho Coa is fabulous and have used them for celebration cakes lots of times. More recently we had a themed (under the sea) birthday cake made by a lady who lives on the Springs. It was fantastic. Sorry haven't got a contact number for her now but she is on Facebook - Nuku's Cakes and Cookies.

I made my own. I just baked 2 round chocolate cakes (the same size), Nutella filling between the 2, covered it with vanilla ready frosting, then covered it with mini M&M's. Happy 1st birthday small candles & a huge no.1 candle. Looked amazing & tasted yummy, & I was sooooo proud as I made his 1st birthday cake :D This sounds delicious and I want to eat this too! I must try! Also i would recommend manuri, she did our DD's first birthday cake and cupcakes and they were beond delicious. We had the worm from Baby Eistein, the colorful one on the top and it looked gorgeous, and the cake was delicious!

I made my own too - it's so easy and really quite easy to make it look good too. For my son's 1st, I make a small square cake, iced it with white fondant and then cut coloured triangles of fondant, placing them round the edge like bunting... I then drew on the "string" with black writing icing and decorated the top with a yellow star and a big fat "1" candle.

I used ChoCo'a for a celebration cake when my DS was born. As I did not have time to pop in to their shop, I just called them to discuss what I was looking for. They did a fab cake with marzipan bottles, teddies, booties etc as decorations. Everyone loved it and it tasted fab as well. They will also deliver. Ordred the cake from the shop next to MOE. If you google them, you will see if they have other branches. ChoCo'a Boutiques: Behind Mall of the Emirates Dubai - UAE Tel: +971 4 340 9092 Fax: +971 4 340 9093 Email: [email protected]
