“Totally Awesome!” – that was Oscar’s response when he saw his completed birthday cake.
Oscar’s Super Hero Party
Even before his fourth birthday party Oscar had chosen the theme for this year’s party – Spider Man. It only changed slightly in that time to “Super Heroes” when he discovered The Avengers on ABC 3.
Oscar chose everything himself this year.
- The food:
- Sausage Pizza
- Mini Meatballs
- Chips (Red Rock Deli plain)
- Lemonade
- The Cake: A mango flavoured Avengers cake.
- Avengers party plates, serviettes and cups.
- Gift bags: Boxes filled with party favours, super hero stickers and transfers, and super hero bubble blowers.

My job was to chose the venue. We had the party at FitnessWorx in Mitcham where they have a variety of activity based parties. We chose the Super Hero Training party and the kids all had a ball. We can thoroughly recommend it! The party went for 90 minutes, with 15 minutes for food.
I have to thank Rona at Domestic Diva for inspiring me to try this cake. I love her cakes, they always look so beautiful and professional; but I’ve always thought it would be really difficult to do something similar. After searching the internet for avengers cakes this one inspired me to try out the marshmallow fondant Rona always uses. I practised the marshmallow fondant a couple of weeks before the party (it can be prepared in advance) and discovered it was super easy- so easy even I could do it! My second thank you goes to the Kerryn from the Failsafe Closed Group on Facebook who shared making black icing using charcoal capsules – how inspired and perfect for this cake!
