Good for you, Ado. No, it is not the 1950s anymore. Nor is it hundreds of thousands of years ago when we had to hunt for everything we would eat, skin it and cook it on a wood spit over an open fire. People have specialized. We can do more because we rely on others to take of what they do best, so that we can focus on what we do best. I hope Ella has a fantastic birthday!

Girl, I am a fantastic cook, and I can bake pretty well. But that fancy birthday cake stuff? Always left to the pros. I have ZERO decorating talent. Good on ya for being proactive this year.

That video gave me the LOL I needed! I happen to love the Happy Face and 84-1 cakes…classics. I’m not much of a baker either, but this year I pulled off a miracle and made a rainbow cake for my daughter. It gave me hope. But I think getting a store-bought cake should not involve a single drop of guilt!

Your laugh is infectious. I cannot wait to see the volcano cake! Let people who love it make them…
My son wanted the fire engine cake last year. I followed the video and did real good. Then it called for food coloring and I never used it before. So I put the red in the frosting and it was still kinda pink. Two bottles later… The fire engine did turn out more red then pink but can you imagine the taste?! had to scrape the whole frosting of… As for Betty, she created easy to make boxed cakes for a reason. She knew most women were like us!

Looking at beautiful birthday cakes makes me sad.

Every time.

If my kids could have Specialty ordered cakes of their dreams: I’d let them go nuts.

Home baking? OVER RATED.

The kids want to be happy..and ordering a gorgeous Horton Hears a Who cake is an easy choice to make when it brings on smiles through sparkling eyes of joy.

That dad friend makes AMAZING cakes, do you think he vacations in Maine? The best I’ve ever made was Cookie Monster for a 2nd b’day. Other than that, my kids have had the basic Granda cakes OR I’ve bought them… (p.s. the video was HILARIOUS — ok, and a little disturbing too.) Please post a pic of the cake this year — are you attempting the volcano?
