Chan's Naked Confetti Birthday Cake

1 box of cake mix
2-3 eggs (according to the cake mix instructions)
vegetable oil
cooking spray
vanilla frosting, warmed to spread smoothly
2 6 inch cake pans

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Mix cake with ingredients according to the instructions.
Spray the cake pans with cooking spray. Pour batter half way in each pan. Bake as instructed.
Let the cake cool before flipping the cake out of the pan.
Cut the cake horizontally and again to cut off the dome part of the cake. Do this for both cakes to make 4 cake layers.
Place the first layer of cake on a cake dish.
Spread vanilla icing across the cake surface. Layer another cake and continue to spread icing between each layer of cake and allowing the frosting to overflow a little.
Finish off the icing on the top layer. Use a cake spreader to spread and smooth out the overflow frosting.
The cake should be minimally covered with frosting. Sprinkle confetti on the cake.
Top of flowers and Gold Sparkler Candles.

Organic Brownies

It is rare that I find a box mix that tastes as good as homemade. I am over the moon in love with Miss Jones Organic Brownie Mix. It is ooey gooey delicious!!!! The best part is that they are so easy to make!! To give these delicious bites a pop of color I poked them with Tassel Party Picks.

Macaroons are always a delicious treat for any party!! We have a tiny obsession with Mac Lab here in Atlanta! If you are every in the neighbor you have to try them! Serve on a platter or single serve with these cute Happy Birthday Foil Napkins, Party Time Plates, and a Hooray Party Crackers!
