DS's 1st birthday coming up, im a mean parent so he has never had chocolate, sweets, crisps or anything like that at all. He is allowed jam and fruit etc. But obvs on his birthday I am gonna let him have cake.
I am pretty good at making cakes, I usually make a sponge with buttercream in the middle, then dirty ice it with buttercream and cover it with royal icing. However, I dont know if thats a bit too intense on the sugar for DS, especially as he has never had anything like that before!
Don't know if I should go for a simpler cake, but most of me wants it to look awesome for pics/memories sake. I guess what im asking is, cake is cake, so does it really matter if its full of sugar and crap, or should i not give that to a one year old??
