Gruffalo First Birthday Cake Ideas

We’ve rounded up our favourite first birthday designs for Gruffalo birthday bakes below.

The story of the Gruffalo is enchanting for any child, of any age, making it a brilliant first birthday party idea for your baby. With so many vibrant characters, the possibilities are endless when it comes to organising a get-together that your family and friends will remember.

If you don’t know the magical story of the Gruffalo, you can read it here.

Looking for something other than a Gruffalo get-together? Here’s our whole list of first birthday party themes.

1. Gruffalo and friends cake.

Personally, we love this idea for a Gruffalo cake. It includes fondant icing models of the Gruffalo, the mouse, the owl, the snake and the fox, all set in the deep, dark, wood – lovely.

8. Simple mouse cake.

This mouse bake is another straightforward recipe to try at home. Whip up a Victoria Sponge and use one layer as the face and the other as an ear, then cover with butter icing for ‘fur’. You can add eyes and whiskers, too. It’s a piece of cake!

10. Amazing Gruffalo.

We think this is the most amazing Gruffalo cake we’ve ever seen! It is so detailed and just looks like the main character himself; with his ‘terrible tusks, and terrible claws, and terrible teeth in his terrible jaws’.
