Activities to Do With Cake Coloring Pages
Once the coloring is done, the fun doesn’t have to end. You can turn these sheets into interactive games and crafts. Here are a few sweet ideas to keep the creativity flowing.
Design a Bakery Menu
Have your child color several different cakes and cupcakes. Once they are finished, paste them onto a large piece of construction paper. Help them write names and prices for each item to create their very own bakery menu. You can then play “bakery shop” where they sell you their delicious creations.
DIY Birthday Cards
Why buy a card when you can make a personalized one? Print the “Happy Birthday” or balloon-themed cake pages at half size (choose “2 pages per sheet” in your printer settings). Fold the paper in half to create a card. Your child can color the front, and write a sweet message inside for friends or family members.
Cut-and-Paste Cake Toppers
Color the cakes and then carefully cut them out with safety scissors. Tape a toothpick or a popsicle stick to the back of the paper cutout. You can stick these into real cupcakes or a real cake for a fun, homemade decoration that adds a personal touch to any party.
Color by Flavor Challenge
Make coloring a game by assigning specific colors to flavors. Tell your kids to color a “strawberry and chocolate” cake, meaning they can only use pinks and browns. Or challenge them to create a “mint chocolate chip” masterpiece using greens and dark specks. It gets them thinking creatively about how colors represent tastes.
Collage Art with Texture
Take the coloring page to the next level by adding 3D elements. Use real sprinkles, glitter glue, or small pom-poms to decorate the cake on the paper. You can even glue on small pieces of cotton balls to look like whipped cream. This is great for sensory play and developing fine motor skills.
FAQs

Standard printer paper works well for crayons and colored pencils. However, if you plan to use markers or watercolors, we recommend using cardstock or a heavier paper to prevent the ink from bleeding through or the paper from curling.

Absolutely. These pages make for a fantastic, quiet activity at birthday parties. You can set up a “coloring station” with a stack of printed sheets and cups of crayons. It gives the kids a creative break from the active games.
