Funfetti Birthday Cake with Warm Almond Cream Glaze

Whew, we partied hard for Kade’s 12th birthday!! Three celebrations meant three cakes ((well, store-bought cupcakes once)). I really loved how yummy and simple this pretty funfetti cake was — thanks to using my pre made cake mix ((recipe HERE)).

Having a pre-mixed homemade cake mix on hand is one sure way of never missing the opportunity to “properly” celebrate a happy moment ((which I have been guilty of several times)). And really, there is just something about a homemade cake, it brings “special” to any occasion!

The addition of rainbow nonpareils ((or jimmies or sprinkles — whatever you may call them)) to my basic vanilla cake mix just screams birthday party!

This sprinkles are so pretty, I added them to the batter & the top.

I baked it for 38 minutes on 350° — the smell that filled the kitchen and overflowed into all of the corners of my home – heavenly sweetness. Kade walked in the door from youth group and knew – “momma made my cake!”. Gracie was excited too ((hahha)).

I couldn’t leave this cake alone – even though it is so pretty just like this! I had to add a simple warm almond cream glaze.
