What age works best for a baking birthday party?

Baking parties work from age 4 upwards. Younger children do simple decoration (icing and sprinkles on pre-baked cookies). Older children (7+) can mix, bake, and create more independently.

What baking activities can you do at a birthday party?

Cupcake or cookie decorating, pizza making, gingerbread house assembling, cake decorating competition, or a junior bake-off format.
