Strawberry Heart Cake for Valentine's Day
Coloring guide
Here's a sweet two-tier cake with lots of little details to color. Two tall candles with swirled stripes and tiny flames stand on top, surrounded by three strawberries, each with a leafy top and small seeds, plus four frosting swirls. Wavy icing drips run along the upper edge of both tiers. Hearts and small round dots decorate the sides, and a row of round beads trims the base of each layer. The bottom tier has more strawberries and frosting swirls too. The cake sits on a plate on a small table. Large open spaces work well for crayons and markers, and the free printable PDF is a nice fit for a Valentine's party table or a quiet afternoon. Red and pink suit the hearts and strawberries, soft yellow the flames, and a pastel shade the icing drips. This fits right in with our Valentine's Day coloring pages — see also Snowman and Father's Day.
