To-Go DIY Cake/Cupcake Decorating Parties: The Perfect Birthday Activity

Planning the ultimate birthday party for your child or a loved one can be so challenging. You want something unique, fun, and memorable—but convenient and manageable, too. That’s where Cake Hoopla's to-go DIY cake and cupcake-decorating parties come in as the perfect solution! Not only are they creative and interactive, but they also provide a delightful experience and party favor for guests of all ages. Here's why a to-go DIY cake or cupcake-decorating party is an ideal birthday party activity and how Cake Hoopla can help make your party a hit.

Why Choose a To-Go DIY Cake or Cupcake-Decorating Party from Cake Hoopla?

1. Creative Fun for Everyone
A big reason DIY cake/cupcake-decorating parties stand out is the level of creativity they inspire. From young kids to adults, everyone loves the chance to get hands-on and design their own sweet creations. Guests choose how to apply and mix frosting, add sprinkles, cut out fondant shapes, and assemble their cakes/cupcakes; these parties bring out guests' creative sides! Plus, cake/cupcake decorating is more than just a birthday activity—it’s an experience that sparks joy and leaves everyone with a sense of accomplishment.

2. Easy and Stress-Free Ordering, Organizing, and Setup
Hosting a Cake Hoopla to-go DIY cake/cupcake-decorating party at home is simple and convenient. Here's how it works: From the Cake Hoopla website, choose a pickup date and the details for your party. Pick between cakes or cupcakes and a pre-curated design, or customize your own, like a party theme, team colors, or company logo. (Whether it’s unicorns, outer space, or princesses, themed cakes/cupcakes make everything more exciting!) Then pay a refundable $150 deposit, which will apply toward the final price of the party. After you pay the deposit, we'll email or give you a call to work out the remaining details.

When it's time to pick up your order at the Cake Hoopla studio, we'll have everything ready to go, including everything your guests need to decorate their masterpieces: parchment placemats, cakes/cupcakes, frosting, fondant, sprinkles, tools, etc. Plus, you'll get a handy how-to handout that will guide you on setting up the cake/cupcake decorating area. After the decorating, cleanup is a piece of cake: toss out our eco-friendly single-use containers. Keep and reuse any piping tips and fondant cutters. This party activity is not just unique, but easy too!

3. A Memorable and Tasty Party Favor
When you book a to-go DIY cake/cupcake-decorating party, Cake Hoopla supplies compostable to-go boxes, so guests can take home their delicious and unique party favors. Unlike typical party favors (think: tiny plastic throwaways), each guest leaves with their very own personalized and delicious souvenir. This is a unique touch that adds extra value to the party experience, ensuring that your party will be remembered for a long time to come. No wasteful tchotchkes here! 

4. Perfect for All Ages and Occasions
While Cake Hoopla's to-go DIY cake/cupcake-decorating parties are the ideal party activity for kids’ birthdays, they’re also great for teens, adults, and even corporate events. Cake Hoopla can customize the cake/cupcake design to suit any organization or occasion. The versatility of cake and cupcake decorating ensures that it fits any theme or age group, making it the go-to activity for birthdays, family gatherings, and more.
