Tammy‘s citrusy birthday card features the cute Capybaras! with Build-A-Cake. She decorated the cake with orange slices from Build-A-Drink and placed it on a silver metallic cake stand from the Build-A-Cake Add-On set. Then she filled the background of the slimline design with Fruit Salad patterned paper.


Grace‘s beautiful birthday cake is so pretty with lots of sweet color and pattern! She combined papers from Bitsy Blooms, Rainbow Ever After and the new Gleeful Gradients. Then she added strawberries from Build-A-Cake Add-On and tiny flowers from Spring Sprig. And of course, she included cute little mice from Bubbles of Joy and You Autumn Know.


Lynnette created her cake with papers from Pint-Sized Patterns Summertime and shimmery purple cardstock. There’s also extra sweetness from the strawberries and cream. She combined Scripty Birthday, Scripty Birthday Outline Add-On, Happy Happy Happy and Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Birthday for her greeting!


I love Latisha‘s rainbow layer cake! She used a rainbow of cardstock and the layer dies included in Build-A-Cake. It looks like all the colorful layers are separated by yummy buttercream frosting! For the background, she layered Quilted Heart Backdrop: Portrait on a panel of Guava cardstock. Then she used a Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame as a pretty border!


Elise chose Textured Canvas cardstock in pink and cream to create her lovely confection! Then she added birthday candles and a birthday greeting and layered it all on a Gleeful Gradients Outside In Stitched Rectangle panel. So sweet!


The cute mice of Berry Special and Dandy Day know that strawberries and chocolate are a winning combination! Audrey used Stripes ‘n Sprinkles pink paper with the chocolate drip icing from Build-A-Cake Add-On to make a cake that looks so delicious! No baking skills needed!


Elena also used the drip icing on her unfrosted cake layers. Her strawberries look good enough to eat along with the dollops of whipped cream! I love how she added “let’s eat cake” from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Birthday on the cake topper banner! So beautiful!



Build-A-Cake with Build-A-Cake Add-On are perfect for adding to an interactive Pull ‘n Slide Surprise card! The birthday message from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Birthday stays hidden under the cake until you pull the slider!


Sprinkles Border isn’t just for cakes and birthdays! It’s a fun addition to any card, adding a touch of whimsy! Here it’s so adorable with our new Summer Friends set!

  42. I love this new cake die set! So many things you can do with it! My favorite kind of cake is chocolate cake with a coffee buttercream frosting! It tastes like a mocha!

  44. I enjoy a piece of vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream frosting with all the buttercream decorations. Corner piece please.

  49. Wow! I LOVE this Build a Cake die!! MT favorite cake is chocolate with chocolate frosting. Or German chocolate cake.

  54. Cheesecake!! Always, and preferably New York Style. I’m a purist. No toppings or add-ins needed.

  55. Love the wedding cake that was made above, with the flowers! Not sure if I have a favorite cake that I like to eat. More of a chip and dip kinda snacker!

  56. What a cute die set, great for all occasions, even the 4th of July, coming up right around the corner!

  57. If it counts, my favorite cake is cheesecake. If not, I love a moist and delicious carrot cake. The designs today made me hungry!

I also like angel food cake. Maybe LF can make a set w/ angels – I don’t think I can remember any angels in your product line. That would be a huge Xmas hit!!!!!!!!

    These cakes are AMAZING!! Love them all! The LF design team is absolutely brilliant!
    Lori S in PA

  85. My absolute favorite cake is the citrus one! The colors are amazing and it pairs so well with the critters with orange slices on their faces!

  87. My favorite cake is chocolate coconut bundt cake. Build a cake would make a really cute wedding card or wedding scrapbook page.

    1. I can never have just one “favorite” of anything so I would have to say Red Velvet or German chocolate or a flourless chocolate cake with ganache! Add a cup of coffee and I’m all set!

  121. Ooooo. My fave cake is tiramisu, followed by a rum St Honore cake. But tonight I’m going to have a sachertorte. Never thought I’d be in Vienna, but here I am, and where better to try a sachertorte, created here in 1832?

  124. Ooooo how can I say no to cake??? Classic yellow with chocolate frosting and sprinkles will always be my favorite!

  155. I love how all the critters can sit on the layers of this cake! So cute! I’ll definitely be ordering this one!

  156. I forgot to mention my favorite cake is pumpkin cake (not pumpkin pie). It may sound odd but it is so yummy!

  171. YUMMY CAKE! My fave is TCBY White Chocolate Mousse cake but I don’t eat the cake part I only like the frozen yogurt 🙂

  178. A cake and a cupcake are very different to me. For cake I love a rich chocolate cake with chocolate fudge icing. Give me a cupcake and it’s white with buttercream frosting.

  209. Such a cute new die set, and I really like the sprinkles border die! My favorite cake is Angel Food cake with fresh strawberries!! So light and delicious!

  212. Chocolate has always been my go-to cake, but I love most sponge cakes and even some cheesecakes too. As long as there is no fruit in the cake (on top is fine)! Mud cake with fresh cream is another favourite as long as it’s not too dense.
    I love this new die set – I can’t wait to use it to make a beautiful wedding card.

  213. I love chocolate cake with chocolate mousse icing, and just recently I had a Berry Chantilly cake from Whole Foods – delicious! These project cakes look delightful as well. 😋

  218. My favorite cake is a lemon lavender cake that I love to make during the summer! Come to think of it, I’d love it if we could add lavender to the Lawn Fawn family of flower dies, too!

  224. I absolutely love the chocolate cake from Costco. It has layers of chocolate cake with chocolate mousse in between the layers. Pure chocolate heaven!

  225. My favourite cake is Martha Stewart’s Triple Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Ganache. It takes me six hours to make, but it’s wonderful!

  227. My favorite cake is from Maxie B’s in Greensboro, NC and is Strawberry Buttercream Cake. It’s amazing.

  232. My favorite cake comes from DQ. It’s a vanilla vanilla ice cream cake 🎂. It is so good. Oh and it has crunchy chocolate bits in the middle of the cake

  233. Chocolate cake is good but seriously isn’t it just the vessel for an amazing buttercream icing – or is that just me 😉

  235. Oh goodness!! This new cake die set is to die for!!! Of course I’ll be making my favorite cake cards with them, make it chocolate!! Yum! 😋🎂🍫

  236. My favorite cake is actually white cake. I saw Chari’s comment that her mom used to make cakes…mine did too! My mom made wedding cakes (and birthday cakes, and anniversary cakes, retirement cakes, baby shower cakes) when I was growing up and a lot of them were white cake. The smell (and taste!) of white cake baking is nostalgic and comforting.

  243. That’s a difficult question! I looooove All kinds of cakes!! There is no cake I don’t love. lol I love these sprinkle border die. I can find the use of other things other than for “celebration”. I also love the candles washi tape! You always introduce such cute Washi tape and this is a must have for me. 90% of my envelopes are sealed with Washi tapes!

  246. I think my favourite cake is a tuxedo cake, white chocolate, dark, chocolate, mousse icing, and has it all

  247. The new cake set is so pretty! I have two favorite cakes, both associated with childhood memories. The first is a yellow cake with a lemon filling, and buttercream frosting. Thus was a bakery cake for special occasions like baptisms, First Communions, etc. The second is my mom’s devil’s food cake – moist, rich, chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream frosting. We’d arrive home from the last day of school to this cake adorned with little “promoted to…our next school grade” diplomas rolled up and decorating the top of the cake. Happy memories.

  248. For traditional cake I like carrot cake. For celebration cake any mousse layered cake takes the cake!

  249. I like chocolate dobash cake from King’s Hawaiian bakery in my town (chocolate chiffon cake with chocolate pudding filling)

  250. Birthday is my fav theme for cards! Thank you! Looking forward to getting my set <3

    For me: whipped cream cake with strawberries and chocolate drops… Mouth melting!

  251. Yum, cake! There used to be a bakery here that had a chocolate cake with a meringue layer and berries inside- thar was always a special treat!

  254. Lemon cake with homemade raspberry filling and lemon cream cheese frosting. Mmmmm. Can’t wait for my bday next month! 😍

  258. My favorite cake is red velvet. But not just any red velvet. It has to be the recipe we’ve handed down in our family. I don’t like any one else’s. Ours is an old southern recipe that no one makes because of all the work. I love all of the cakes in today’s inspiration. So yummy.

  262. I love a good flourless chocolate cake, but moist chocolate cake with buttercream frosting is a close second. Mmm cake!

  264. I love white sponge cake with whipping cream & filled and decorated with fresh mangoes! My mom’s chiffon cake lovingly renamed MaMa Cake is another favourite.

  273. Something about just a simple vanilla white cake with fresh strawberries and a strawberry glaze is just so yummy and refreshing. Of course, chocolate is good on any day! 🍰

  279. Fact: I’ll do more baking and cake decorating in my craft room that I will in my kitchen! But if you expect me to eat the cake, I’d love something non-chocolate cake with anything delicious frosting! And cream cheese frosting . . . bring it.

  284. There is a cake company, La Rocha, and my husband buys the same cake from them each year for my birthday – The Chocolate Mousse Cake. It is decadent, rich, yet equally light. Truly fantastic and a treat that I look forward to each year!

  292. My favorite cake hands down comes from a little shop in China Town in Los Angeles. It is a white cake, layered with creaming fresh strawberry filled frosting and thinly sliced almonds sprinkled all over 🙂 My mouth is watering just thinking of it 🙂

  295. Mmm cake. I’m not picky, but do love a hood vanilla poundcake. Or lemon. Or strawberry shortcake. Again, not picky 😉

  316. So cute! I love a simple birthday sponge cake with whipped cream, or a Dutch Apple-Crumble Vlaai, which is a cake type from Limburg

  317. My favorite cake is this magical Earl Grey cake from Deep Sea Sugar and Salt – if you live near Seattle, you MUST check it out. It’s the best cake I have ever had.

  323. My FAVORITE Type of Cake would be Italian Lemon Cream Cake, Upside Down Cherry Rhubarb Cake or Sponge Cake with Strawberries & Cool Whip!! YUMMY!! Its HARD to choose just one as Desserts are my WEAKNESS!!

  329. My all-time favorite cake was from a small local bakery that has been closed for several years. It was layers of chocolate and vanilla sponge cake with chocolate whipped cream and vanilla raspberry whipped cream layered between them. It was “iced” with chocolate whipped cream and decorated with huge raspberries. I miss it…

    Clearly it made a lasting impression on me.

  343. I have never met a cake I did not enjoy eating, but a favorite is strawberry with cream cheese icing.

  347. I love chocolate cake with buttercream frosting. My new flavor is pumpkin spice cake with maple frosting!

  352. I love cake! German chocolate, coconut, a lemon cake, tiramisu (is that considered a cake or a dessert?), carrot cake, strawberry cake… I love cake!

  354. My favorite cake is the one my mom makes for her birthday, sponge cake, mascarpone, decorated with cream, dried fruit and chocolate.

  356. Cake? I have never met a cake I didn’t like, but if I could choose, my favorite would be anything with coconut in it!

  363. White sheet cake with almond frosting. That’s what my grandma always used to make for me on my birthday.🎂
