Smash Cakes

i saw a 'treasure' cake once but now i can't find it. can't remember if it was here or somewhere else. i think it had some kind of chocolate dome on top and then the kid smashes it to find 'treasure' (lolies) inside. does anyone know the one i am talking about?

I've seen one in real life Hot I, but that probably doesn't help!

I thought smash cake was something different? I thought it was a pinata cake, aww have one in a cake book, and better homes and gardens have one too (from their show, so I think it will be on their site).

Smash cakes are a shape (dome, cupcake, whatever) made from chocolate with lollies hidden underneath.

Some people also call those small cakes they give babies to "play with" (usually for photos) smash cakes, but I've always know smash cakes as the what I mentioned above.

Also if you google smash cake the first page that comes up is the dome chocolate kind!

Yeah, that's what I thought, Toomanyshoes.

Moved this here to make it easier. Sarah (Member ex mod) made one of these recently for her DS's birthday. It had the cake underneath then she coated a large bowl in chocolate and froze it and then popped the set chocolate out. It looked amazing. She even covered the outside with m&m's.

there's definitely one in the aww kids birthday cake book that I have. let me know if you'd like more details of which one exactly or I could scan it.

Oh man. Gold. Pure gold. I have had moments like that. But hey I think after that I would have been shoving my way through to the cake so I could smash it in the end. Lol!
