What kind of cake should I get for my child’s 2nd Birthday?

A space theme cake is a great choice for a kid’s cake because it combines fun, colour, and imagination. The Space and Rocket Cake is decorated with rockets, UFOs, stars, and smooth buttercream, making it a perfect centrepiece for a 2nd birthday celebration. It’s exciting for kids to look at and delicious to share with family and friends.

How can I prepare for a space-themed birthday party?

A space party works best when you keep decorations, food, and cake tied to the theme. The Space and Rocket Cake instantly sets the tone with its design, and you can build around it with:

Planet balloons and star streamers
Glow-in-the-dark stickers or props
Snacks named after planets or astronauts

The cake becomes the highlight, tying everything together for a memorable event.

How can I make a rocket cake at home?

You can try making a simple rocket cake yourself by following these steps:

Bake a rectangular sponge cake and allow it to cool.
Cut the cake into a rocket shape, trimming the top into a point.
Cover the sponge with coloured buttercream or fondant to create the rocket body.
Use wafers or ice cream cones as rocket boosters at the base.
Add sweets, sprinkles, or edible stars to finish the design.

While this can be a fun project, it’s often time-consuming and tricky to achieve clean results. Ordering the Space and Rocket Cake gives you a professional finish with themed decorations already in place, letting you enjoy the celebration stress-free.

How many guests can a kids' rocket cake usually serve?

The Space and Rocket Cake comes in four sizes, so you can choose depending on your guest list:

4 inch (up to 8 serves)
6 inch (up to 20 serves)
8 inch (up to 35 serves)
10 inch (up to 50 serves)

This flexibility makes it easy to plan for small family gatherings or bigger parties.

What different flavour options for a custom space and rocket birthday cake?

The cake can be ordered in a range of popular flavours to suit different tastes, including:

Vanilla
Chocolate
Marble (Vanilla and Choc)
Red Velvet

These choices ensure that the Space and Rocket Cake not only looks exciting but also offers a flavour everyone can enjoy.

How far in advance should I order a rocket themed cake for a 2nd birthday party?

Orders for the Space and Rocket Cake need at least 48 hours’ notice. It’s best to book as early as possible, especially for weekend parties, so you know your cake will be ready and freshly decorated for the big day.

What’s the best way to keep a buttercream space cake fresh overnight?

To keep your cake looking and tasting its best, store it in an airtight container in a cool spot away from direct sunlight. Buttercream cakes like the Rocket themed Cake should not be refrigerated, as the sponge can dry out. If kept properly, it will remain fresh for your party the following day.

Where can I get a custom space and rocket cake in Sydney?

The Space and Rocket Cake is available for both pick-up and delivery across Sydney through The Cupcake Factory.

Pick-up location: Unit 6, 43 Herbert Street, Artarmon NSW 2064
Delivery: Available to suburbs across Sydney with fees calculated at checkout

This makes it easy to organise, no matter where you’re celebrating.

Why are space and rocket cakes becoming popular for kids’ birthdays?

Children love themes that connect to adventure and imagination, and outer space has become one of the most popular. The Space and Rocket Cake captures this trend with its rockets, stars, and vibrant buttercream design, making it a party highlight that feels special and modern.

Can a personalised message or topper be added to a space-themed cake?

Yes, the Space and Rocket Cake allows for a short hand-piped message on the board. You can add a child’s name, a birthday greeting, or any small note to make it unique to the occasion. This personal touch makes the cake even more meaningful for the celebration.

What’s the difference between a custom rocket cake and a standard supermarket birthday cake?

Supermarket cakes are usually simple in design and limited in flavour options. The Space and Rocket Cake, on the other hand, is freshly baked, covered in velvety buttercream, and decorated with themed rocket and star elements. It provides a standout centrepiece designed to impress and delight, not just a dessert.
