Awards Night Cake Ideas

What better way to celebrate Awards Night than with a cake that’s—well—award-winning? Or, at the very least, downright delicious.

The specific type of Awards Night cake a host prepares will depend on the type and theme of awards that the party celebrates. If the host is planning a festivity to honor a spouse, friend or family member who has won an award, he/she might want to bake a simple homemade cake with an iced “Here’s to the Winner” message emblazoned on top. To decorate the cake, she could use party supplies like first place ribbons and tiny plastic trophics (or edible candied versions of each) to place on top.

For an Oscar party, perhaps the most frequently celebrated awards festivity, the host could make a vanilla Awards Night cake in the shape of good ol’ Oscar, one perhaps topped with icing of sweet gold buttercream. For a Grammy party, a standard party cake could be topped off with a plastic facsimile of a Grammy award, or an edible model of a gramophone or turn table. A tasty cake in the shape of a musical note also would work.

For a sports awards party the host might serve an Awards Night cake shaped and iced to resemble the type of ball used in the sport being honored, such as a baseball, basketball or soccer ball.

Have a real ‘bar’ at any awards festivity with an Awards Night cake.

Winning by Santana
Victory by Kool and the Gang

A successful Awards Night party also should come complete with a ‘winning’ host of glamorous party supplies. This might include a movie theater or red carpet scene setter, invites or place cards that resemble Oscar night awards envelopes, and even gold-wrapped chocolate Oscars as take home party favors. Confetti and champagne should flow in equal measure at an Awards Night party, so also be sure to have colorful goblets on hand for what is sure to be an award-winning party.
