Number Candle Cake

Mark a special age with this rounded birthday cake, finished with smooth frosting and a wavy icing border. On top stands a row of thin numbered birthday candles, their flames flickering, with a few decorative dots running along the side. Number candles are how families celebrate milestone birthdays, so this page is perfect for coloring in honor of a particular year. The single large cake shape is easy for younger children to fill, while the numbered candles and icing border give older kids finer details to work on. You can color the number candles to match someone's real age before giving the page as a card. Keep the frosting soft and pastel, or go bold with bright colors, and trace the wavy icing border in a shade that stands out. The decorative dots along the side are a fun place to add a splash of contrast. Print it on US Letter or A4 and add the candles for the birthday you're celebrating.
