There is a very true saying that there are NO DUMB ?s. If you don't know/understand something you will never learn what it is unless you ask
At a 1st b'day party people would set the whole cake infront of baby and let them 'play' in it, then serve it to all at the party. Now instead of doing that we give them a smash cake. Much more sanitary
A smash cake is a very small cake made just for baby to dig into and smear all over himself
It can be a extra large cupcake - like a mini doll skirt OR a 4, 5, or 6" round single layer. It is usually decorated like the 'main' cake and included in the price of it.
It is really for the photo op. The parents want the cute picture of the baby all covered in frosting. But like kakeladi said no one else wants a slice of the cake a baby slobbered in.
I do a 3" round. One layer torted into 3 thin layers filled with whatever and iced and decorated to coordinate color-wise with the main cake. If they want it more elaborate... it's more $$.
I give the simple iced version as a freebie.. it takes seconds to ice and slap on a board and the parents love it.
