If your son or daughter is like millions of other children out there, they love to watch Spongebob Squarepants on Nickelodeon. Some adults and some teenagers love to watch this show as well. No matter how young or how old your Spongebob fan may be, a cake with this character may be what they want for their birthday. Perhaps you are going to surprise them. Either way, you can find great Spongebob Squarepants cakes out there, or you can try to make one on your own. These can be a lot of fun and very memorable for a birthday or any other occasion.
Those rushed for time and who do not feel very creative may want to buy a Spongebob Squarepants cake and be done with it. That is fine and works well when time is short. There are many places where you can get these, and they come in many different forms. Your local bakery is a great first stop, but you will only find them in bakeries that have a license to make a Spongebob Squarepants cake. If one does not, the next one might so call around. Most can have these done in a few days or even faster, depending on where you go.
The Spongebob Squarepants cake you get can come in many forms. You may want to get one that looks just like him. This cake is a lot of fun. You could also get one shaped like any of the characters from the show if you call the right place, or find the right place from which to order online. You could also get a cake that has the characters drawn on the top of a cake. The background may be what you see on the show. Perhaps the Krusty Krab or a scene around Spongebob's house. There are some pre-designed cakes that some bakeries use so ask to see what they have.
If you can not find a Spongebob Squarepants cake that you love, you can always try to make one on your own. Unlike other shaped characters, Spongebob may be one of the easier ones to make. You are going to have to use your imagination and have a good picture of Spongebob from which to gather your inspiration. A trip to the craft store can yield all that you need to make your own cake. You are probably going to have to bake two cakes, one for the body and one for the additions you are going to make as you decorate. Get a good icing piping set to help you out.
For those that have never made a specialty cake before like a Spongebob Squarepants cake, there are books that help with basic cake decorating. You are not going to know how you are going to do until you do it, so perhaps you may want to give it a trail run. When you do this, you are going to learn how hard or easy this is going to be for you, and with what you may need help. You may find you have a talent for it, or that perhaps you want to search harder for a bakery. Either way, it'll be a fun experience and perhaps the start of a new hobby.
