A Wish Come True
This simple wooden toy fosters creative play and is a wonderful addition to imaginary kitchens everywhere. Use the wooden spatula to serve the cake and the fake candles to make a wish. This toy will make an excellent birthday gift for future bakers.

The cake itself is painted white with blue icing swirls and has seven removable candles that fasten to the top. Three delectable toppings -- strawberries, jellybeans, and gumdrops -- can be added to the top and the cake comes in a decorative box kids love. This delicious dessert is already cut into slices that fasten together with Velcro and easily pull apart. It also has a bright red serving platter and each of the six pieces is about the size of a real piece of cake. Also, as a well-made and durable wooden toy, it withstands child play and the paint won't easily chip off, even if it is accidentally dropped. Storing all the pieces may be a challenge, but a party box is included to contain the candles and decorations.

Features
This birthday cake is a hit for those who like to help out in the kitchen. Children love redecorating and serving it using the wooden spatula. Unlike many of today's modern toys, it encourages creativity, as children get to design their own cake and parties. It amuses future hosts and hostesses for hours and is an exceptional value as a 33-piece set. This cake remains child's favorite for years and includes enough candles to celebrate a lot of birthdays. The cake has a 10-1/2-inch diameter.

Good Quality & Creative Fun - Reviewed on 2009-06-28

Gave this to my niece a few weeks ago for her 2nd birthday and she still loves playing with it. It's very well crafted out of wood and encourges her imagination and social skills to play with family and friends. She will even prop up her dolls and stuffed animals and have a tea & cake party with them. I have also noticed from singing the "Happy Birthday" song outload she now sings it by herself with the same melody and voice inflection we use when we sing the song. Overall, a nice item to be enjoyed over and over again.
Perfect gift for a 2-year old! - Reviewed on 2009-06-16

I bought this as a birthday present for a 2-year-old boy and he loved it! He loved decorating the cake and then sharing slices with others. It is such a cute gift and is nice for either a girl or boy. The wooden pieces were sturdy and looked like they could withstand repetitive play. I would buy this again as a gift for another young child and also for my own son who is 1 and a half (despite the recommended age of 3+).

My three kids always liked to play "Birthday Party". So I got this birthday cake set for my daughters' 3rd birthday. Out of all the gifts she got, this was the one she wanted right after opening it. My kids play with it almost every day. Sometimes they pretend it's pizza too! My only complaint would be that there are not individual serving plates for the pieces of cake.

My son has the Pizza "puzzle" like this, and my 4-year-old nephew loves it. Instead of getting him the exact same one, we just got him the Birthday Cake kit for his 4th birthday. He loves it, too! My only complaint is some of the things to put on the cake (gumdrops?) are kind of random...

My nephew has cerebral palsy and has a hard time with any fine motor skills, and this has been great therapy for him, because he can learn to cut, put the decorations in specific places without having to fit them into jigsaw patterns as with a real puzzle, etc. I would recommend this to anyone with kids who have a similar case of CP.

I bought this for my daughter's 3rd birthday. Two months later she's still celebrating! She enjoys putting different toppings and candles on the cake, and "cutting" through the velcro with the cake server. I love all of the melissa & doug products because they are durable, unique, and fun.
