Mandy and I have boys that share a birthday. Today her son is 5 and mine is 1! Happy Birthday boys! Remember this little guy we featured last week?

Yep, that's my little guy. But here is what he looks like now...

He has grown up so fast and I cannot believe he is already 1! For his birthday I wanted to make him a special cake. I saw a cake on my friend's blog and it was just fabulous. She found the idea from the Texas Monkey blog.
Here's the cake I made my little guy. Isn't it adorable? I love that it looks like a big bowl of candy!

It is two 8 inch round cakes frosted with kit-kats lining the outside and M&Ms on top. It was super easy, but looks so great!
Their site has all the tips and instructions and also has other versions of easy candy cakes. I love this one for Halloween...

And this Christmas one...

Go visit Texas Monkey. There are cakes for each holiday!
