Cool Homemade 3 Tiered Kindergarten Graduation Cake

I made this graduation cake for my son’s graduation from kindergarten. I got the idea from the Mars candy “bright ideas” site.

I used one 9×13 pan for the bottom layer, an 8×8 pan with an inch trimmed off one side for the second layer, and a medium glass oven-safe dish for the bottom of the cap. The mortarboard part of the cap was a large cookie made from refrigerated dough.

I just iced each layer then stacked them, turning the “book” layers. I added the school’s name, both teachers’ names, and the year (2008). I used m&m’s to trim the edge of the “books”, and dipped a fork in cocoa and pressed it into the exposed “page” edges. He insisted the tassel match, so I had to “stripe” a decorator bag.(I matched the cap color to the actual cap my son wore.)

He loved it, especially the cake itself, chocolate cake with cut up Milkyway bars in the batter.

  1. This cake is awesome and has inspired a family to make this cake for a grad party. Only theirs will have a rebel flag on top of the cap. Thank you for this great idea, thank you for sharing!
