When I was a little girl my aunt would make different shaped cakes for all of the kids birthdays. I would love to get a copy of this the booklet. It brings back great memories. I did make the horse cake and everybody thought I got it from a fancy bakery. Lots of fun. I really would like to get this book and the others that went with a set. Can you help me?

I, too, loved my grandmother's Cut-Up cake book, and unfortunately destroyed it in childhood. My mother DID make me the hobby horse cake prior, though! You are wonderful to post this, especially since I can't find one of these books for purchase for under 40.00, and need to make Jerry the Giraffe in July! Thanks again, God Bless!

My mother and I made Fanny the Fish for my father's birthday, it was the first one we made. My aunt made the Bunny every easter when I was a child. Over the years I think I made almost every one of the cakes in the book. I had to sell my house about 12 years ago and didn't have room to store much. I gave my cookbooks to my daughters but they can't find the cut up cake book. I am so happy to find it on you web site. Thanks for much for taking the time to put it on the web.

My mother LIVED by this booklet while we were growing up. Money was so tight and it was her claim to fame, that she could always present these lovely desserts for (now I know) little cost. I made them faithfully throughout the '70s and early '80s for my own small ones. With money being tight again, it's time to bring back this fun art. Thank you so much for your effort in this!

The book my mother had for years and years has been misplaced. She made these cakes for my daughter for her first 5 or 6 years. Another website wants $48.50 to purchase this book and it's missing it's cover. It is VERY nice of you to share free of charge. Thank you for sharing these recipes and photos.

Mom used to make us birthday cakes from this book in the 1960s. Luckily I ended up with her copy and several articles on cut-up cakes that Mom must have gotten from old magazines. Lost my Mom a year ago this weekend, so seeing this has brought back a flood of great memories. Thanks for sharing! Mom used to make us birthday cakes from this book in the 1960s.
