SHE had the best idea for a birthday cake when she saw the sprinkle-covered one Kourtney Kardashian’s daughter Penelope had for hers.

But instead of forking out for a pricey professional one for her, one mum has shared how she managed to make her own for

She took to TikTok to post a video documenting the process, which she began by opening up the £4.82 chocolate cake she’d picked up from .

She then off the chocolate icing on the top, before using Betty Crocker’s cream cheese style icing to cover the cake.

Next, she got some unicorn confetti sprinkles and spread them generously over the top of the cake.

She followed that by using pink frosting to pipe around the top and bottom edges of the cake.

Before rolling out some pink fondant icing, and cutting two eyes and a smiley mouth out of it.

Placing those on the top, the cake was finished – and it looked incredible, and incredibly similar to Penelope’s one, which likely cost a fortune.

“Copy Penelope Kardashian’s birthday cake for less than £20,”; she captioned her video.

“This Kardashian cake hack is easy and super affordable. If I can make it, so can you!”;

She also shared some “pro tips”; to make the cake decorating process smoother, including putting the cake in the fridge before applying the frosting for a “firmer base”;.

And if you don’t want to shell out for pink icing, you can just use pink food colouring to colour the frosting and fondant icing.

The mum was quickly praised in the comments section of the TikTok, with one person writing: “Looks really good and the fact this can be made less than £20, basically impossible these days!”;

“How to be creative with less ... its fab!”; another said.

“This is great. Especially cost of living going up,”; a third added.

“It shows you can be creative without spending a lot of money.”;

“This is brilliant!”; someone else said.

“Omg, I’m loving your page, I’m legit saving everything on here.

“What brilliant tips!”;

“So clever, my granddaughter would love this – amazing!”; another wrote.

birthday cake was custom made byHansens – who dub themselves the “best bakery in Los Angeles”;.
