Farm or farmyard themed child's birthday cake

MrsE_2

My grandson is obsessed with farms & animals - does anyone know if any of the chains sell a farm themed cake?
I'll make a family one for his birthday, but she wants one that's all about how it looks for the toddler party.

Sainsburys sell a decorate your own cake but not 1 that isnt a farmyard them ready made cake.

Maybe 1 of the other supermarkets sell the "farm yard bits ", cant see them listed on sainsburys.co.uk but your store could be different.

My daughters having her baby induced on Tuesday, she's moving a week & a half after that. I'm working round the clock, with the move, new baby & all she wants an off the shelf cake.

She can get one done for £30, I just thought I would ask if anyone knew any chains making similar. To be honest a gang of 3 year olds aren't really going to appreciate the internal cake, it will be lot, blown out, chopped into bits, put in cake boxes, passed out then probably thrown out!!!
He's asked for a farm cake & with the new baby, she wants to make him feel special.

Cant see a ready made farmyard cake at any of the supermarkets, I thought maybe you could buy the farm yard decorations but can only find a pack of cake decorations at Tesco but the pack includes 2 of 4 that are farm yard animals.

Get 1 made for £30.

At 3, is he going to know the difference between a shop-made and a home-made cake?

I made a farm cake for one of mine by using toy farm animals and fencing and green icing (for the grass). He was thrilled and the animals got added to his toy farm afterwards.

Of course not.
The point is my daughter is having a difficult pregnancy (spd & diabetes), a baby being induced early on tuesday, a house move & purchase the following week & his birthday 3 days after the move.

Thats why she wants to buy one!

I thought it was about how it looked.

Lakeland have a farmyard silicon mould in their sale for £2.79 at the moment.

Asda used to decorate birthday cakes with your own picture, don't know if they still do, my not so little boy thinks he's too old for decorated cakes now.

Give your local store a call and see if they still provide the service.

Meaning a shop bought one from the supermarket will do just fine.
Homemade is better, the £30 would be handmade too.

But its for visual, not taste/quality.
