When you’re a mama who works in the industry and makes beautiful desserts for a living—we’ve featured Paper Heart Patisserie and Beijos Events here on Cakelet just a few times—it’s only natural to enlist your fave creatives for your own littles’ birthday celebrations. The result this time around? A perfectly cheerful “sweet as honey” picnic in the park for a curious little boy. Thanks to Ivory Blush Photography for sharing!

The Bee Box is to credit for all the honey details: honey jars, honeycomb, pollen, and beeswax used as coasters under the cups. You gotta have that local honey!

Anyone else love getting a closer look at the cookies that go along with cakes in little kids parties?

Floral designer Sammy of Bloomonade brought along this neat honeycomb backdrop for the occasion.

You can snag your own paper pretties from Bare Ink Co‘s Etsy shop, FYI!

HBD, little guy!

Super fun kiddo party theme alert! The latest birthday bash from Beijos Events is allll about Michael Jackson, which we have a feeling was just as fun for the grownups as the littles in attendance. Plus, being a double birthday for a girl and boy, we get to see both the girlie, pink take on the theme and a modern black and white design in the photos Dayna Studios shared. So you could really whip up a design of all your own inspired by this one, we think!

Always a fan of how Paper Heart Patisserie takes a theme and runs with it.

Fun placemats, right? David and Leanna was behind this and all the neat signage throughout.

Um, in love with this denim PYT jacket over here.

Who’s up for some bedazzled glove making?

Just eat it!

When you think about it, we don’t post nearly enough sleepover parties here on Cakelet. Kinda every kiddo’s fave type of party, right? Especially if it looks anything like this uber darling girl’s slumber party Beijos Events whipped up with Dayna Studios behind the lens. Might want to offer up those sweets early on, eh?

Remember this Earth Day picnic when we said that Paper Heart Patisserie is our latest obsession? The love affair continues with this rad shag cake!

Pretty good motto, we think!

Not to mention all the girl’s decor inspo one can find at an at-home party.

All the cute signage and stationery was made by Pink & Peach.

How sweet are these little dollies!?

We’ve got the sweetest 70s-inspired picnic from Beijos Events and photog Dayna Studios for you on this most lovely Friday before Earth Day. Wildflower inspired blooms, groovy details, and even floral face paint made this mama-and-daughter afternoon an especially perfect way to celebrate Mother Earth.

Alannah Andersen Calligraphy, you so nailed this theme.

Paper Heart Patisserie is our new obsession, we think.

Cute Anthro napkins and even cuter place setting.

A sunny spring day is the perfect occasion for a new set of photos, huh?

They even had the book I Am Peace there to help everyone learn be more present.

Flower child!

Had to follow up the adorable Southwestern party we posted this morning with this little gem. A recipe to make your own puppy cake! And it looks kind of tasty. Is that weird?

To make the cake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
1. Sift together the oat flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
2. Using me a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat together the applesauce, peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
3. Add 1/3 of the flour mixture add a time; alternate with 1/2 of the milk. Mix each addition just until combined. Divide the batter evenly into three greased and floured 6″ cake pans. You can also use two pans, but note that the layers will be thicker and may require a longer baking time.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes– cake should be lightly browned, spring back gently when touched, and a toothpick should come out clean when inserted. Transfer to a cooling rack and allow the cakes to cool down completely before frosting.

To make the frosting:
1. Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat all ingredients just until well combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides once or twice.
2. Frost the cake in between layers and on the outside as desired. Or however you like!

Maybe it’s just us, but couldn’t you just make this cake for your kiddos too? Sounds like the perfect first birthday cake!

Thanks for sharing this recipe with us, Paper Heart Patisserie!
