A fun alternative to a cake:

I first saw this idea on Everyday Celebrating. (love her ideas!) 
Although, it was originally featured on Taste of Home online.
I was looking for something fun and different
for my sons 5th birthday.
He was excited (of course) when I told him he'd have a
donut cake tree!
Here's the version we made:

My son shares his birthday with St. Patrick's special day.

This was really fun, frugal and easy.  We just ordered the donuts ahead of time from a local bakery and requested special sprinkles for our theme.  I had the little poms on hand from a previous New Years cake.  I try to save things like that...I'm glad I did!  They were the perfect touch.
Our guests loved the idea.
