To coordinate with the pirate-themed treasure chest birthday cake that I made for my niece’s birthday party, I opted for a simple decoration of party swords and maraschino cherries. The cupcakes and cake squares looked great with the simple and striking combo of red, white and black.

For my niece’s birthday this past weekend, I made a soccer ball cake. The timing couldn’t have been better because a soccer ball cake is also perfect to celebrate the FIFA World Cup! The decorative process is straightforward but it takes some time and patience.

In honor of Syttende Mai, the Norwegian Constitution Day (also known as Norway’s National Day), I decided to make a blueberry cake and decorate it like the Norwegian flag. Local strawberries are in season so they became a natural choice for the red foundation of the flag.

Chocolate-covered strawberries have always been one of my favorite desserts. They are sweet, light and refreshing. This is the perfect time of year to make them because strawberries are in season. Get your kids involved by taking them to a strawberry U-pick and then letting them decorate their own strawberries.
