Vintage Floral First Birthday Cake with Pearls
/There’s something about a ruffly cake that just makes everything feel more festive, especially when it’s topped with a whole bouquet of buttercream flowers. This one went out for a very special first birthday celebration, and it brought all the charm.
Piped in pinks and lilacs, the florals on this cake felt like a tiny garden party. We added little pearl accents and vintage ruffles all around for that extra touch.
What we love about this design is how it balances sweet and elegant without being too grown-up. It still feels playful, which is exactly the vibe we go for when making first birthday cakes.
Every single flower is piped by hand, which means no two cakes are ever the same, kind of like little frosting snowflakes, but prettier.
