If you’re a regular here, you know how obsessed I am with cake smashes.
Celebrating the HUGE milestone of baby’s first birthday brings me so much joy. Over the years, I have seen so many different personalities, so many different cake eating techniques, and I have loved every minute of it.

Some babies are timid, and not interested in the cake. Some babies (can I even call them that after their first birthday? Toddlers? Ugh, they grow so fast!) HATE the feeling of frosting on their tiny fingers. Some babies gag at the taste of so much sugar. But this little one? Legit picked the cake up and tried to take it home with her.

Mama brought along these giant balloons, and they were so strong they nearly pulled my backdrop off the floor. Also, they ended up on my ceiling twice. Don’t worry though, I’m scrappy and got them off the 19′ ceilings. I’m practically Macgyver. They pull together this peachy, boho look so beautifully it was totally worth the struggle.

Whether the birthday girl (or boy) loves the cake, hates the cake, or is totally indifferent to the cake..they all LOVE the bubble bath afterward. Universally. I’ve done hundreds of cake smashes, and bath time is by far the favorite. A cake smash wouldn’t be complete without a splash after, and I have a collection of adorable tubs, basins, etc for the bath afterwards (my favorite is this adorable claw foot tub).
