What theme should I choose for my child’s 2nd birthday party?

A bee or garden theme is a fantastic choice for a 2nd birthday because it’s cheerful, gender-neutral, and easy to bring to life with decorations. The Bee Hive Cake ties the theme together with its distinctive hive shape, golden buttercream finish, and charming sugar bees and flowers. It not only serves as a delicious dessert but also acts as a ready-made centrepiece that complements balloons, bunting, and outdoor play.

How do I prepare for a bee-themed party at home?

Planning a bee-themed party doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are some simple steps to create the perfect setup:

Decorations – Use yellow and black balloons, daisy-print napkins, and a honey-gold tablecloth.
Table styling – Add honey jars, mason jars filled with wildflowers, or paper bee cut-outs as centrepieces.
Party favours – Mini honey pots, bee stickers, or flower seed packets make thoughtful take-home gifts.
Food & drinks – Serve fruit skewers, finger sandwiches, and lemonade alongside the cake.
Choose the Perfect Kids’ Cake – Place the Bee Hive Cake at the centre of the dessert table as the highlight of the party.

This simple setup creates a warm, playful atmosphere that toddlers and adults alike will enjoy.

How can I make a simple beehive cake at home?

You can try a DIY version if you’d like to bake:

Bake two small cakes and stack them with buttercream filling.
Tint the buttercream a golden honey shade and cover the cake smoothly.
Pipe concentric rings around the sides to mimic a hive structure.
Shape bees from yellow and black fondant, adding wings with small white petals.
Place the bees onto the cake for a playful finish.

While doable, shaping and decorating neatly can be tricky. Ordering the Bee Hive Cake from The Cupcake Factory ensures a perfectly sculpted hive with polished buttercream, saving you time and stress.

How is a bee cake decorated?

The Bee Hive Cake is sculpted into a rounded hive shape, then finished with creamy honey-toned buttercream. Neat piped rings look like hive ridges, while sugar bees and tiny flowers are dotted around the cake. The result is a charming, storybook design that instantly captures attention without needing extra toppers or decorations.

Why choose a ready-made Bee Hive Cake over baking at home?

Shaping a hive, piping consistent rings, and crafting bees from fondant can be fiddly for home bakers. The Bee Hive Cake comes ready-made with a flawless hive silhouette, smooth buttercream, and detailed sugar decorations. Choosing a professionally made version means you can focus on the party itself rather than worrying about uneven layers or tricky decorations.

How many guests will the Bee Hive Cake serve?

The Bee Hive Cake comes in one size, serving approximately 15–20 people. This makes it ideal for small to medium gatherings such as toddler birthday parties, family lunches, or intimate baby showers.

Which flavours can I choose?

You can select from four classic flavours:

Chocolate
Vanilla
Red velvet
Marble

Each cake layer is paired with soft vanilla buttercream unless another filling is requested.

How much notice do I need to order?

Please allow at least 48 hours’ notice. This gives the bakers time to bake the cake, prepare the buttercream, and handcraft the sugar bees and flowers fresh to order. For peak weekends, it is recommended to order earlier.

Where can I buy the Bee Hive Cake in Sydney?

The Bee Hive Cake can be ordered online for delivery across Sydney or collected from:

Unit 6, 43 Herbert Street, Artarmon NSW 2064

Delivery and pick-up options are listed on the product page for your convenience.

How should I store the Bee Hive Cake before serving?

Keep the cake in a cool place, away from direct sunlight. If refrigerated, bring it back to room temperature 2–3 hours before serving so the buttercream softens and the cake tastes fresh for the party.

Are bee-themed cakes trending right now?

Yes. Garden, nature, and woodland themes are hugely popular for children’s birthdays. The Bee Hive Cake fits this trend perfectly with its friendly design, warm colour palette, and playful bee decorations. It feels modern while also timelessly cute.

Can I personalise the Bee Hive Cake?

Yes. A short message, such as your child’s name or age, can be added to the cake board, and the flavour choice can be adjusted. If you’d like additional toppers or specific colour tweaks, simply include a note at checkout and the team will advise on custom options.
