Whether you’re a whiz at baking or planning to use the services of a professional, here are some less than usual ideas for first birthday cakes.

Snack fruit rolls attached to wooden skewers make great flags and pretzel sticks lined in a row will create a bridge for your castle cake.Your party will go just swimmingly with a rubber duck cake. Use wedge shaped jelly candies for the beak on your rubber duck cake and add a heavy dose of blue frosting for the water surrounding the duck.For a truly magical first birthday cake, create a rabbit in a hat cake.
