If the birthday boy or girl is a sports freak, then the design can be of a cricket bat, a football or rugby ball or in fact a stadium. You can even get your baker to design a cake that resembles the child's favorite cartoon character or sports star. If it's a girl, then you can design the cake with a real doll on the cake, to be precise a Barbie. A colorful hat-shaped cake is great as well.

kids would also love animal cakes like an alligator cake or an elephant cake, butterfly, cat or a dog cake. Car, bulldozer, police cars, bikes would also be a good idea for cakes. Even train or tractor cake would be innovative.

A superman insignia or spaceship designed cake can also be a favorite with kids.
