First Communion Cake Ideas

First Communion cakes are a one of a kind opportunity to showcase a child’s relationship with religion. Simplicity is usually the best way to create a first communion cake. Other party supplies and decorations should follow suit.

Create a smooth two tier cake that is circular in shape. Ice it with a thin layer of white icing and then cover it with fondant. The key to this cake is fondant because it gives it a smooth finish.

Where the layers connect, add in silver edible spheres. Be sure to place them right next to each other so there is no space in between them. Once the connected layer is done, be sure to line the bottom as well. This is time consuming but very much worth the effort.

On the top layer, pipe the circumference of the cake. When finished, add some edible glitter or dust to the top piped icing. This will give it a shimmer look like the silver balls but it will be a different addition and look to the cake. This will set up for the highlight of the cake; the cake topper.

Place an edible or non-edible cross at the very top of the cake for a cake topper. You can also personalize the cake by having the child’s name somewhere on the cake.
