Happy Birthday Cake for Jesus!

I'm missing my Mother-in-Love today. She always made a birthday cake for Jesus and brought it to our Bible study class for our Christmas party.  Today was our Bible study party and we had no birthday cake for Jesus.  It was a great party, but I couldn't help but think about that cake. Today I want to share with you how to make the most perfect birthday cake for Jesus in hopes that you might make one for your family and friends:

Jesus Birthday Cake
 

  • You will make three layered round cake. - Round like the world in which Jesus was born into.
  • Bottom layer - Chocolate  - Brown represents our sin which is dirty & ugly.
  • Middle layer - Add red food coloring to 1/2 of a white cake mix.- Red represents His blood which He shed for us.
  • Top layer - Add green food coloring to 1/2 of a white cake mix.-Green Represents how we should grow more like Him.
  • White frosting all on the outside of the cake represents the purity of Jesus' sinless life, and how we can be seen as righteous in God's eyes because His blood has covered our sins.
  • A Yellow star in the middle of the cake represents the star which shown and provided direction for the wise men. 
  • One candle in the middle of the star represents Jesus' being the light of the world. 
  • Each child takes a candle and lights it from the one on the cake and puts it in the cake around the edges. This represents us letting Jesus' light shine through us.
  • Sing Happy Birthday Jesus and blow out the candles.
