@Renee - By broke I mean I don't want to have to buy fondant. Most of the stuff I already have at the house so I am not too stressed out about spending money but I just don't want to do anything crazy extravagant. And by that I mean, I am not making a Tom Sawyers Island cake like one co-worker suggested! (apparently he likes Tom Sawyers Island, which is odd because hes in his late 20s!)
@Irene I probably end up making the cakes because there are several people in my office who I would just not trust to bake anything worth noting. There are a couple other girls who bake but they brought in stuff this week.
@Debie We work in politics for a Republican. But I am not sure I want to do something super partisan for a birthday. I was thinking maybe a Strabucks theme. He likes those chocolate Frappuccino things and I have these mini plastic cups with plastic domes that kind of look like the Starbucks cups. I could do a few of those and stick Starbucks stickers on them. Then just layer cake and whipped frosting inside
Thank you to everyone for their suggestions!
