DH will not allow me to get fancy cakes....we have to go to Fortnato's in Brooklyn so that it tastes VERY good....



I got my wedding cake at Fortunato's--they can get pretty fancy--I had a VERY traditional wedding cake with the little tiers holding up each level. It was sooooo good. But I think DD's B-Day cake cost almost as much as our wedding cake and it was for 15-20 people vs. 70 people at our wedding. Chat Icon

I spent $124 on the cakes.

I got her a cake for her actual bday, a cake for the party and mini cupcakes for the kids for the party.





I love these! Especially the cupcakes!



Me too! Cakes are so much fun!



thanks! Well, if you are ever in Hoboken, you HAVE to go to Sweet on 4th and Garden. They are mainly a cupcake bakery and they are outrageous. Blows away Crumbs and Carlos (Cake Boss) by MILES!

$26. $20 for the pan, $6 for the colors and a box of cake mix.

I made the cake, frosting and colored the frosting and DH decorated the cake.

I don't remember how much I spent for their 1st Bdays, but I always get bakery cakes. To me, it's worth it. I have a huge sweet tooth and can always tell the difference. I lloooooooove a good cake! So do my kids, of course. Chat Icon

I think jacens was a $10 cake from walbaums for his own little cake.

The sheet cake, my stepmother got so i imagine that was around $40.

It's a cake. I don't think you need to spend a lot of money on that. He'll forgive you if you don't. Chat Icon

Nothing on DS's. A friend made it for me. The theme was the Very Hungry Caterpillar

For DD, I ordered a small cupcake cake from Dortoni's and 100 cupcakes from the grocery store. Total = $75
