Birthday Cake Banner Tutorial

I love elaborate and decorated cupcakes/cakes. I've been enquiring about personalized birthday cakes lately and the prices for them are sky high and I seriously think it's a little too much to pay for a cake. It's something the birthday boy/girl can't keep and most of the time.. the quality of the cake is not as good compared to a freshly baked butter or marble cake.. or even a good old fashion Lana chocolate cake. 












Recently my good friend's sister celebrated her 25th birthday and she requested for Orange Moist Cake.  I was thinking hard how I should decorate the cake without adding any fondant and buttercream to it and I thought, why not a birthday cake banner?! Here's a tutorial to show you how easy it is and how it can change the whole look of the cake.



What you need:

2 lollipop sticks / coloured straw
Ribbon for the banner
Scissors
Craft Glue
Sticker letters
Patterned/Scrap book paper


Choose the papers to create the banner with and cut it into strips, they do not have to be all the same length, you can vary them if you choose to. Cut as many as you need to create the word you are spelling out. Fold the paper into half and cut a triangle out of the bottom

Cut out small squares with the paper and then just stick your letters on the paper.

Stick the square paper with letter onto your prepared patterned paper. Fold your patterned paper in half and put a dab of  glue in the center and fold over your paper so that the points meet.


Tie the ribbon to the end of straw/lollipop stick

 You can make additional flags with toothpicks or if you want longer, you can use satay sticks.

Dust your cake with some icing sugar


Stick the banner and flags to your desired place


And there you go.... a gift baked and decorated with love with minimum effort.
A simple cake that's 'dressed' up for the occasion.
Most importantly, you have personalized and decorated it for the VIP's party. 

Happy Birthday Liz!! May every Birthday remind you of the huge number of people who love you and can't do without you. I'm one of them!..:D
