Make Beautiful Cake Decorations With the Clay It Cake Shop Kit

03/23/2012 by Maytal

by Guest Blogger Maytal Wichman

Decorating cupcakes is something my five-year-old daughter loves to do. Baking cupcakes, however, is not something we do often at our house, so decorating them is usually an activity reserved for carnivals. Clay It Cake Shop is a cupcake and cake decorating kit that is a win-win for both moms and kids: on the one hand, kids can decorate to their heart’s content; on the other hand, none of the decorations are edible, which means no calories, no sugar and, most importantly, no hyper kids.

I recently tried the Clay-It Cake Shop kit called “My Party Cakes” with my five-year-old daughter and three-year-old son. The kit includes plastic containers, clay, molds and crafting tools. The toy is for kids ages 4 and up and my son was able to do some of the decorations. My daughter was able to put the “cream”, as well as make most of the decorations on her own and both kids had a blast and were disappointed they were each only allowed to do one cake. The “My Party Cakes” kit comes with 6 small cakes in various shapes.

While most store-bought craft kits usually get tossed aside after the craft is done, the “cakes” in the Clay-It Cake Shop can actually double as treasure boxes when the clay dries, which is within 24 hours.

The Clay-It Cake Shop kit is available for $23.98. There are other kits available at prices starting from $11.99.

I was not paid for this post. I did receive a Clay It Cake Shop kit for review.

She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in English Literature as well as a Law Degree, but writing about nutrition and helping families eat better is her true passion. She grew up in both California and Israel, which explains her love for California cuisine (fresh, local ingredients), as well as Mediterranean food (flavorful, heart-healthy ingredients). Maytal is a stay-at-home mom to two kids (ages 5 & 2) and works hard to ensure they eat healthy, unprocessed food, while trying to make it as delicious as possible. Married to a vegetarian and being a pescetarian herself, this can be quite a challenge. On an ordinary night at her dinner table, you can hear things like “More cauliflower, please!”, “How come I didn’t get a lot of tomato?” and “Fish oil! Yaaaay!”.

    I am visiting my eight year old grand daughter and thought this exact kit, creamy cupcakes looked like such a fun craft.  She was so excited.  When we opened it the clay felt like semi stale marshmallows and the icing which was sealed as far as I could see was all dried up.  She was so diappointed as she was making it to give to her mom for Mother's Day and it was just garbage.  I rad good reviews and of course was hoping for that.  I am hoping the company will read this and reimburse me so I can give her something else or have faith in their product.

      I’m sorry to hear this, Sherry. We received the kit for review, I would recommend contacting the company directly, as we do not have any relationship with them.
