The Cake Smasher | Sirius James, 18-Months

Meet my youngest. A few months ago, I did a cake smash session in Westfield (my first one) with Mister Handsome here, and he did not disappoint!

Sirius was a little apprehensive at first. He kept giving me looks, questioning whether or not he should, in fact, dig into this blue disc-shaped oddity that I placed right in front of him. He behaved just like I expected. I placed a few apple-flavored puff snacks into the back of the cake and opened it up for him so he could see that there was something edible inside. That was all that was needed.

The Cake Smash Session Design & Theme

Sirius was a name chosen from Harry Potter (Sirius Black). We are both very big HP fans; he is my husband’s favorite character. Sirius is also the name of the brightest star in the sky. The Dog Star. Alpha Canis Majoris. Here is a cool website to read more about it!

His bedroom is decorated in a Harry Potter/Ravenclaw/Star theme (with an awesome flying key mobile!) so I knew that doing a star theme would be perfect for him.

Sweet Bites Bakery provided me with this adorable galaxy-themed smash cake. You can find the bakery on Facebook here. My daughter had her Birthday Party a few weeks ago, and I used the same bakery for her dinosaur cake and cupcakes. Check out this blog post!
