This is a great guide we've released for all novelty birthday cake fans. It's a comprehensive, step-by-step guide for building a 3D car cake. The guide includes templates, photos and detailed instructions that will help even the novice build a great cake.
I'm not sure if this qualifies as a novelty birthday cake, but it is sure one humungous cake!
I guess it would be useful at a large party or gathering. Just make sure no-one 'lies down'.
Sometimes when making novelty birthday cakes it can be difficult to find the right pan. Over the years Wilton have released hundreds of novelty cake pans, many of which are now discontinued. If you want to find some other options than those currently on the market, the post below has all the information you need.

Birthday Cakes for Girls are a lot of fun to make and there are heaps of great ideas on what theme to use. Of course, most girls like ‘pretty’ colours like pink, purple and pastel shades, but there are so many different options that it is always fun to try something new.
With so many ideas that it would be impossible to cover them all, but here are two tried and true themes that are based on age. One is for younger girls, the other for older/teenager girls.
This is a great theme for little girls and can be based around their favourite animal – most little girls have at least one, if not many to choose from. There are domestic animals (dog, cat, birds, fish), farm animals (ponies, horses, cows, pigs) and wild animals (monkeys, tigers, lions, elephants).
One great animal cake idea is a Panda Bear Cake and this video shows how to make it…
To make this cake you will need a 9 x 13 Inch Cake Pan
Now we’re talking about the older girls who are likely to be fond of all things fashion – shoes, handbags, purses, jewellery and all sorts of accessories. Here’s some ideas.
A Purse Cake…
…a Shoe Cake…
…or the ultimate, a Barbie and Jewellery themed cake…
Most of the fashion cakes can be easily made using a Square Cake Pan
That’s a few ideas to get things started on a special cake for your little girl. If you have any ideas, questions or comments on Birthday Cakes for Girls, please leave them below.
