Easy Cake Decorating to Make Any Occasion Magical

In front of me sits a blank white cake and enough rainbow candies to fill an Olympic size ball pit.

The white frosting glaring back at me is like a blank canvas demanding a paint brush.

I’ve never decorated a cake before, so this could go down the road of magical or take a flying leap into the realm of a mess.

Thankfully, Celebration by Frey products make this a fun and easy cake decorating operation. 

I participated in Mom Blog Tour Sweets & Snacks Expo on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers.

I received Celebration by Frey products to facilitate my post, but my opinion and creative content are my own.

Fun & Easy Cake Decorating

First, I highly encourage you to visit the Celebration by Frey website. You can shop by color, event, or candy type and stock up on any color scheme for seriously any occasion. 

To make things super easy on yourself, you can purchase a blank cake at your local grocery store.

Of course, you can make your own as well, but I’ll do anything for a shortcut now that the kids and I have schedules that make us all dizzy on a daily basis.

So, snag a white cake and have some fun. Let the kids get in on the action and make this a new tradition for all your cake-requiring events.

Rainbow Crumbs Celebration Cake

It’s helpful to separate and sort all your candies into bowls by colors for ease of designing. If you were using paint and a brush, this would be your palette.

Start designing! We went with a Rainbow Crumbs theme because of our logo and blog theme.

We really are A Magical Mess! Our unicorn logo is eating his rainbow and leaving a trail of crumbs, so this cake fits his style perfectly!

The creative ideas for colored candies are endless. If you have a kids’ party, consider putting together a candy buffet using clear paint buckets. Before the kids eat, they can create a piece of art.

Give them each a plate with a lip and teach them to paint with the colored candies in a paint-by-numbers fashion. I threw together this slightly terrifying unicorn in a cookie sheet as an example.

Don’t let that moderately hideous creation scare you; there are so many cute ways to implement this activity.

You could even print little templates for flowers, fish, or anything to follow your party theme. Kids and adults will love it!

If you’re looking for more rainbow treats, try rainbow cookie dough and rainbow Jello cups!

Have you ever decorated a cake this way?
