Mylar letter balloon banners Custom photo straw toppers + labels Monster Truck Birthday Party Monster Truck Party Details: This is what Lucinda shared about the party- “We LOVE working with our regular client Drea de Matteo every year for her sons birthday. This time around mom wanted a COOL all BOY Monster Truck party for her adorable son. It just so happened that I had a spare car tire that was driving me mad in my driveway so I put it to good use as the centerpiece for the main table. We used crushed graham crackers as the table runner and the effect was AWESOME! Little tip – Graham crackers seem to work better than sugar as sand as they aren’t sticky. Each place setting had a checkered plate and of course a VIP pit pass. We personalized the party by using the image of our divine birthday boy taken from his invite on the straws as well as in the windows of the main space. We LOVE using letter balloons to anchor a theme and this time we chose the words CRUSH IT which went brilliantly with the MONSTER TRUCK theme.
On the main table we used simple wooden trays that we spray painted black to create ramps. We also spilled the little can’s of slim for a dirty, mud effect and then added toy Monster trucks. The incredible Julie from Blue Cupcake created the perfect cake and cupcakes as well as the adorable cookies & rice crispy treats. Outside on the food table we really tried to let folks know that they were at a MONSTER TRUCK party with , donut mud tires, crush soda and organic juice disguised as Lucas Oil. All the little Truckers went home with their very own Monster Truck, A Truckers vest and a light up mohawk! It really was a MONSTER SUCCESS!” Colorful Monster Truck 4th Birthday Party Monster Jam Birthday Party Love Kara’s Party Ideas?

Welcome to Party Week! To celebrate Mason’s birthday, I will be bringing you all sorts of party fun this week, so stay tuned!
I can’t even believe I’m saying this, but my littlest man is 4 years old today. I mean, seriously, he. So, just stop with the 4 years old stuff. And the poor little guy woke up sick today. I’m sorry, but being sick on your birthday is just not cool. Obviously, that means birthday cake ice cream for breakfast. So we’re going to do his birthday dinner tomorrow night. But you can’t have a birthday without a cake, and Mason is suddenly totally into monster trucks. So Dave suggested that I throw together a little monster truck birthday cake for him. Now, I know I have said before {like here, and here} that I no longer bake cakes, but I couldn’t use my trusty Wegmans cake for what I wanted to do here, so I did go ahead and make a cake. But it was boxed, so it doesn’t totally count. I did some searches online, and found a few cakes I liked {like this one in particular, although I can’t find the original source, so if this is your photo or if you know whose it is, please let me know!}, so I sort of took ideas from several of them and this is what I came up with.
And, like everything I make, it’s super crazy easy and anyone can do it. I started out by making two boxed funfetti cakes in 9 x 13 pans, although I didn’t use most of the second cake. The rest of that one is now for snacking. I placed one cake face-down, so the flatter side would be on top, on a cake board. If you don’t have a cake board, you could always use a platter or a piece of cardboard wrapped in aluminum foil. Slide a piece of parchment or waxed paper underneath each side of the cake to catch any frosting mishaps and keep your cake board clean. Next, I used a toothpick to draw generally where I wanted the dirt and the grass areas to be. I then cut a wedge out of the second cake to use as a ramp. I stuck some frosting on the bottom of the wedge and placed it on the first cake. Here you can see a little better how big of a wedge it is. Then I covered the cake and the ramp with buttercream. I just used a vanilla icing that I colored with brown food coloring, but you could use chocolate icing if you’d prefer.
And if you want to make things even easier, just use frosting from a can. Make sure you leave the areas where you want the grass to go uncovered, because it’s going to be a lot tougher to get the green icing to stick if there’s already icing there. Also, don’t worry about what the frosting looks like. You can see I am a god-awful froster {and also why you need to slide those pieces of parchment under there! I am crazy messy.}, but it doesn’t matter, because you’re going to be covering everything with graham cracker crumbs in a minute anyway.I didn’t put crumbs on the side, because I wanted the Oreo tires to stick to the icing. Then I just filled in the leftover areas with green icing. I used a piping bag {actually, a ziploc bag with a corner cut off} and a star tip. I actually have a fancy-schmancy piping tip that is meant for grass, but naturally I couldn’t find it, so I went with what I had. If you aren’t comfortable using a piping bag or don’t have any special tips, you can just frost it and then tap a knife all over the frosting to create little points.
To make the little Oreo tires for around the bottom of the cake, I used white candy melts. I melted some in a ziploc bag in the microwave according to the directions on the package, and then snipped off a tiny corner. I piped a little dot in the middle of each Oreo and then topped it with a candy melt {unmelted, just right out of the bag}. Then I just stuck them all around the bottom edge of the cake. A couple of the Oreos wouldn’t stick, either because the icing had dried a little bit or I didn’t have enough on, so I just slapped some more icing on the back of it and stuck it on. I will say, at this point, I was a little concerned, because it wasn’t looking all that impressive. But then I stuck on El Toro Loco and some cars for him to crush, and it all came together. I also printed out a little banner that I taped to some straws and stuck in there. Mason insisted upon calling it the finish line, and was very excited for El Toro Loco to “fly up over the ramp, and crush those cars, and then SMASH through the finish line!”
