DIY Birthday Cake Boxes for People in Need

***UPDATED 1/27/24***

I stumbled upon this Birthday Cake Box for the needy on Pinterest and thought what a fabulous idea. It’s super quick & easy to make and donate to the food pantry/people in need. 

The Dollar Tree and Walmart have the cake mixes and frosting for just over $1 and lots of paper products and inexpensive party supplies. For just under $10 you can make them for your local shelter or food pantry. Kids get a kick out of helping and it also makes a great service project for scout groups and church ministry groups.

Here's what you need to make a Birthday Cake Box:

• 9x13 Disposable aluminum foil pan with a lid, it's helpful to have the lid for packaging and delivering purposes.
• 1 box of cake mix, any flavor you like 
• 1 can of lemon-lime soda (in case the recipient doesn’t have eggs or oil)
• Birthday candles
• You can add birthday napkins, candles, a banner, etc.

• 
  

• Did you know that you can make a delicious cake out of nothing but a box of cake mix and a can of lemon-lime soda? When my granddaughter was little, her momma made her cake with soda because the precious little one had an egg allergy. You wouldn't have known there was no oil or eggs. 

  Not everyone may have eggs and oil on hand. It would be disappointing to get a birthday cake box but you didn’t have the other ingredients to make it? Adding a can of lemon-lime soda along with a little note giving simple instructions on how to make a cake, will make someone's day.

  If they do have eggs & oil, the beverage is a bonus.🙂
