Denver One Year Old Cake Smash
A little internet search revealed to me that cake smashes originated in Mexico! Thank you Google’s AI feature for this info…
“The tradition of cake smashes for a one-year-old's birthday is most commonly attributed to Mexico, where it's called "La Mordida" which means "the bite," where the baby's face is intentionally pushed into the cake while guests chant "Mordida!" signifying their first taste; however, the practice gained widespread popularity through the lens of social media photography, making it a modern trend in the United States and beyond.”
My little cake smash model’s mom found some info on the TikTok about taking a Costco mufffin, chopping the top off and frosting it! Looks like magic to me and a super affordable option to buying a whole cake for your 12 month old to pick at. :) A fancy cake stand goes a long way, too!
Cake covered hands, feet, hair, face, mouth, I love seeing it - this girl was not shy about her little cake and went to town smashing it like a pro!!!
Happy first birthday, sweet one year old babe! You are so loved!
