Need ideas, planning 11 year old sons Birthday party- has anyone heard of a cupcake cake?

Question

Does anyone have any party decorations, games, or cake decorating ideas? Tomorrow is my sons 11th Birthday party, as with most kids that age he's not really into the character themed parties anymore which has presented difficulties planning his party- also has anyone ever made a cupcake cake, you know the cakes that are made up of cupcakes? if so what have you made out of them? all I have found is a heart and a leprechaun- and neither is appropriate for his party- Thanks!!!

Answer 1

Hi Kate,

I have a cupcake cake I did if you like to visit my website and look under "gallery"

I have done many, good to bake them in the design all together in the oven so that the mixture runs into each cake to keep the same level, but individually would still be good.

Cheers, Jane

have a video game theme or football? going somewhere instead of staying home is good too...how about miniature golfing, or bowling, or indoor rollerblading?

How about one giant cupcake? that would be great.I think most 11 year olds are into sports or video games.Try that as a theme?

Answer 7

How about all the cupcakes placed together and then decorate them as a single money note...like a 20 or 50 dollar bill.
