40Th Birthday Cake Needed

R.--

I used to bake professionaly and now make cakes for family and friends. If you're interested, email me directly and we can discuss.

As one of the ladies had said Jungle Jim's in Fairfield Oh has good cakes but I also love Joyces Tasty Cakes:

They are locted in Fairfield/Hamilton area. As a matter of fact I am picking one up this Saturday for my daughters 1st birthday. We have ordered from there for Baptism and for my Oldest birthdays as well.

I am in Noblesville. If this location works for you, a good friend of mine makes beautiful cakes for ALL occasions and they are SOOOOO amazing and yummy of course!!!! Email her @ ____@____.com if you are interested or ###-###-####. HEr name is Jennifer.

we always go with walmart, if you have one close by. they are awesome, and the buttercreme icing isn't as sweet as the rest of the icings out there

If you want a good birthday cake then you should make it yourself from scratch. Otherwise your frosting will be half shortening and your cake lord only knows if you go to a bakery.

i had a Drum cake made for my DH's 40th. He is a drummer so she put a drum set of rice krispie treats on a round cake. Very cute. We have an IGA here that makes cakes too. I don't know if you want ideas for cakes or a cakemaker.

Hope it works out.

I have a good recipe for Ice Cream Cake.
It is very easy and your kids could help you make it.
I will see if I can find the recipe tonight and get it to you tomorrow

I have an excellent recipe for a homemade cake! We all call it MOM's CAKE - it is wonderful --- I am guessing you want to get one since you are so busy... Giant Eagle usually have good cakes and if you have a Cold Stone in your area - they are wonderful... be sure to get ganache on it! Yummmm!

I am not sure exactly where you live but if you are in Indy/carmel area then you should definaely try Classic Cakes located on 116th and Rangeline Road.

It would be a hike to Milford, but Jerry's Cheescake is the best cake place ever! They serve regular cake too taht is EXCELLENT. I think it is all in the icing!

I don't know where that is. But Target has some really good
cakes. They have a really cute Over The Hill Cake.

The Wyoming Pastry Shop on Wyoming Ave has the most incredible cakes -- very moist with great icing. And their cake decorator is really good. Once you try the Pastry Shop, you'll never want to eat a Kroger or Wal-Mart cake again.

Honestly, I like Giant Eagle cakes (much better than Kroger). Unless you want something much more expensive like a chocolate raspberry torte cake from a bakery. yummmmm

Is he depressed or dreading turning 40?? You could have a lot of fun with this and go all out BLACK!! When my husband turned 40 I had a huge suprise b-day party where everyone was told to wear black (funeral attire)clothes, we had black balloons, cupcakes, you name it. He was shocked! It was a blast. Go wild! Try Kroger or Wal-mart,either have good cakes.
Have fun!!

Definately Black and over the hill themed!! I've seen some pretty cute ones!!

If you're in the Columbus area, a friend of mine makes cakes and she did 2 for me in March that were wonderful. Try emailing her at ____@____.com. :)

I have turned on all my friends to the Giant Eagle almond flavored cake with buttercream icing. It is so yummy!

I don't know where your located. Jungle Jims in cincinnati has GREAT cakes. :) I don't think they are that unreasonably priced or anything crazy either. Sams and Krogers cakes are ok...Best icing is the buttermilk where ever you get it from!

If you live around here in the South Bend area I sugguest Dainty Maid in down town.

If you have a Kroger, WalMart, or Marsh store close then you are all ready half way there. I prefer the whipped frosting because it isn't as sweet. You can order the cake the day before and pick it up on the way home and can pick and choose the type of cake you want from Almond to Red Velvet depending on his personal favorite flavor.

Some people prefer cheesecake or ice cream cake. Many of the above stores can provide these types as well. Dairy Queen, etc. have a variety of flavors in ice cream cakes.

Good luck.
