Pink Scooby Doo Cake?

My dd is desperate for a scooby doo cake for her 6th birthday on Tuesday, only thing is she wants a pink one!
I normally pick birthday cakes from either local supermarket (Sainsbury/Asda) or Marks n Spencers.
Does anyone know if a pink one is available.
(Not willing to spend too much on it - have found lovely one on net for £70 :eek: - but def not spending that)

TIA

    According to online shop sainsbury do a scooby doo cake but there's no pic maybe give them a ring. I know we got a scooby doo candle from the cake decorating section in asda if thats any help. Asda can put a picture on a cake for you that might be an idea?
    Hope she has a fab birthday.
    Booo!!!

    Not very! LOL
    If i had a week to practice then i would have considered it, but as her birthday is Tuesday it leaves me no time at all, as tomorrow i have to get her to her tap and ballet lessons, then have family coming over at 1 o'clock, Sunday will be chocka as other family members will be coming (those that wont get to see her on her birthday) then Monday i will be working.
    I didnt know the cake had to be pink til this morning on the way to school :rotfl: .

    Violetta, i did look in sainsbury's yesterday when i was in there but they didnt have any, didn't think they stocked one as the celebration cake isle was pretty full ( no empty spaces, but a cake could've been put in worng place - i didnt look at name tags!)
    I will phone my local store in a min!

    You mention the Scooby doo candle (asda) where about in the store will i find it? I will be going to the Eastbourne store tomorrow.

    Thanks .

    The Asda Photo cakes, as mentioned above, are very good. Perhaps there is a way to colour the white icing? Perhaps someone a bit more 'cakey' than me will be able to suggest! The photo covers almost all of the cakes top surface, so a pink Scooby Doo picture might be enough?

    (Tip - if you do a Google image search for 'pink scooby doo, make sure safe search is turned on!)

    Oh hun you are in a pickle, it's in the cake decorating section by the flour and suchlike , in my store it was by the cake colouring things heres a link to the candle on the supercook website so you know what your after . The pink ribbon is a good idea too.
    My dd is 3 she loves scooby , not bothered re the cartoon:confused: just likes scooby doo she sings " Scooby scooby doo where are you" in such a cute way that only a 3 yr old can. If I have any other ideas I'll let you know. It's awful when you get it into your mind that you want them to have something and can't find it.
    Booo!!!

    how about printing a page off from
    http://www.coloringpages.net/scooby-doo.html here, colouring it in the colours your dd wants and then taking it to ASDA and getting them to put it on one of their plain cakes that they put pictures on
    I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was going to blame you

    I have seen Scooby cakes in Morrisons and Tesco's, but they were both pale green in colour.

    Maybe one of those with a pink cake frill? Or a plain chocolate cake and buy her some scooby figures to put on top, she gets an extra little gift there too!!

    My DD was scooby mad, and after years of looking I found a pink T Shirt for her as 90% of SD merch is aimed at boys.
