Lego Birthday Cakes
So a while back, I saw the Lego cake mentioned on Beck’s blog, and I knew that I had found the cake for The Boy’s birthday party because I was able to make a cake for everyone. The green one is my favorite as far as looks go. The big yellow cake is a traditional yellow cake. I was a bit disappointed in the icing, which came out more liquidy than it should have and I was kind of in a rush, but it tasted great nonetheless. The two smaller ones are one gluten free, vegan cake split in half. The green icing is made with soy milk and vegan butter and the blue icing is made with hemp milk and coconut butter. The icing was tasty (although the coconut butter makes for a bit gritty a texture) but the cake itself wasn’t so good. Do any of you GF cooks know why it tasted great and bread-like fresh out of the oven, but after a couple hours of sitting around kind of took on a solidification in the middle that made it hard and chewy in a bad way?
(I know this was supposed to be my Wordless Wednesday post, but, what can I say, I’m chatty today. More WW pics here and here.)

Those cakes are just awesome!! I’ve got to show my boys, they would love something like that!
Wow, congrats on such a great looking cake! They look hard to do.
Looks like good and tasty fun.
What a fun idea for a boys birthday cake…
I remember making birthday cakes for my boys, such a long time ago. I’m still making them for my daughters though. Happy WW!
Very cool! We did a similar one with giant blue legos for my son’s 4th bday. That was the year he got the Lego table and giant tub of Legos, and he still plays with them.
Happy Birthday, The Boy!
that’s is so ingenious!
