The Very Hungry Caterpillar Cake and Cookies

Have you been looking for an idea for a cake your own Very Hungry Children will be happy to munch through? Check out our fantastic Very Hungry Caterpillar themed cake and cookies! By the looks of things, that naughty little caterpillar has already nibbled a few holes in these sweet treats – we’re not surprised, it’s hard to resist them!

The cake is covered in the caterpillar’s favourite snacks in bright colours, and the cookies are adorable in their vibrant, glossy icing.

Turning to your child’s favourite book for birthday inspiration can be a great idea. Maybe they love the challenge of Where’s Wally, which can work brilliantly as a red and white colour scheme, or maybe it’s The Rainbow Fish. Edible foil, gold leaf or shimmer spray can be used to create the pretty scales for a really special birthday cake.

If you’re thinking about designing a cake based on The Tiger Who Came to Tea, orange and black tiger print and some cute iced teacups, or why not go for something inspired by The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch completed with a tiered lighthouse, circling seagulls and the lighthouse keeper and his wife?

Children love birthday cakes about the things they like, and give any child’s party a personal touch. They allow you to carry the theme of the party right the way through, and everyone gets to take away a little themed souvenir.

Whether your little ones are Very Hungry or not, everyone will find room for a slice of this cake!
