Cheese Burger Cake for DDs Second Birthday

My dear daughter, T, had her 2nd birthday a few years ago now.  Today I am going to share her cake that I made for her.  The cake has a little of a back story to it.

When T was just over 1 we went on a spur of the moment trip to Disney Land.  It was a chance to meet up with dear friends before they were posted overseas.  Daughter T was just starting to talk.  While sitting getting ready to order dinner with Auntie Tasha, Uncle Brian, Hubs, myself and 6 kiddos daughter T is patiently waiting amongst the mayhem.  When the waiter was taking orders daughter T "orders" herself in a loud and proud voice "Cheeeesebuuuurger!".  Apparently daughter T and Auntie Tasha had been practicing this word together.  :)  It definitely got all of our attention.  So that is why for daughter Ts second birthday I made her a "Cheeeesebuuuurger Cake".

Here is the breakdown of this lovely cake!

 I have a little helper AKA Photo Bomber Queen :) That is daughter G in the back ground.


There is no "recipe" for this cake.  Mostly just directions.

The Bun:

Both the top and bottom buns are white cake mix cooked in two round cake pans. I used my from scratch recipe. You can use pre mix white cake from a box also... I will not judge.

The Burger Patty

The burger patty is my super easy chocolate brownie mix.  I will share the recipe another day.  Again you can use brownie mix in a box.  No one will know.

The Condiments

For the pickle I used kiwi.  The tomatoes are strawberries.  The mustard is whip cream with yellow food coloring gel.  You could do the same with ketchup too.  I put real sesame seeds on the top "bun" but now I think that pumpkin seeds would be more to scale.  :)

This was really fun to make.  Fairly easy as well.  You could use the same idea and make mini-burgers or slidders as a cupcake form too. 

There she is blowing out the candles on her cake.  Man time flies.  :)
