The Very Hungry Caterpillar Cake and Cupcake Ideas

One of my favorite books to read to children is “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” which is very popular! They always laugh when you come to the flip pages where he eats everything :) I think this story is great for incorporating into a child’s birthday party. I searched high and low to find the BEST and most creative cakes I could, so here they are!

This is a simple cake for kids to have at their birthdays!I just love that the fruits the caterpillar ate are on the sides with holes in them! Made by Bake That and Party

Instead of having a whole cake for your birthday, consider getting this cupcake cake! It is very cool how the green cupcakes are lined up to make the caterpillar’s body. This would be an easy DIY cake as well.
