When you are a kid your birthday is the most special day of the year. The anticipation of your birthday starts from the moment your birthday month starts. Then the days leading up to your birthday can make you feel simply giddy. My son just celebrated his birthday and I had a whole week of birthday countdowns, birthday eve celebrations, birthday breakfast, birthday lunch, birthday dinner and of course BIRTHDAY CAKE. This is his favorite cake and he especially requested that I make it for him after his birthday dinner. Making this cake for him was simple because I took a lot of help from the store and reaped all the hugs and kisses that he gave me for making his birthday so very special. Score one for Mom! : )
