There are plastic Snoopy figures that would be perfect for your birthday cake. These plastic figures are available in many fun designs.

You can bake a round cake, sheet cake or any type of birthday cake you would like and top them with these plastic cake toppers. After the birthday party, your child will have a great party keepsake plus a fun toy to play with as well.

Wilton's Stand Up House Cake Pan would be perfect to use for your Snoopy Dog House birthday cake.

This cake pan takes one standard mix and measures 8 3/4" x 9" x 3. The cake pan is easy to use. Simply bake the cake and then decorate it with red and white icing or fondant to coordinate with your birthday party theme.

If you are experienced with working with fondant or gum paste, you could mold Snoopy and Woodstock to add to the cake. If you don't want to mold the characters, you can simply add on one of the plastic Snoopy figures listed above for a great birthday cake decoration.

You can visit the Kitchen Scrapbook blog for step by step instructions and a photo tutorial on how to use this cake pan to create a dog house cake for your birthday party.

The Snoopy lying on his dog house birthday cake pictured here was created by Fricker. She found the recipe for this cake in the Favorite Character Cakes book by Debbie Brown. You could purchase this cake decorating book or see if they have it available in your local library if you want to give this birthday cake a try.

Edible cake images are the latest trend in birthday cake decorating. These images are very simple to apply to any home baked birthday cake. Edible images are available in many different sizes including round cake, 1/2 sheet, 1/4 sheet, cupcakes and more. Many of these cake toppers can even be personalized with your child's name.

There are many edible cake toppers on the market for a Snoopy party including the Peanuts Gang, Snoopy Lying on his Dog House, Charlie Brown and many others.

Cupcakes are great for children's birthday parties. They are very easy to hand out to the kids and there are so many fun ways to decorate them.

Ebay seller The Original World of Pinatas sells custom Snoopy cupcake toppers. The cupcake toppers measure 2.5" and they are attached to a wooden stick. The total height of the topper is 6". You can even personalize these cupcake toppers with a short birthday message. Toppers are printed on a high quality matte label and mounted on a Bazzil card stock. They are very cute and would be perfect for your party cupcakes!

Another cupcake decoration is an edible cupcake topper which is the same as the edible cake topper listed above, however; it is made to fit nicely on a cupcake. There are also cupcake rings on the market which you can use for your cupcakes.

A cute way to display your birthday cupcakes would be to use a cupcake stand. These stands come in a variety of sizes and hold between 13-38 cupcakes depending on the stand you purchase.

Another way to display your cake would be to wrap a square or round cake board with Snoopy birthday wrapping paper. Then place the finished cupcakes on the cake board. You can place a Snoopy figure in the middle of the cupcakes as a fun party decoration. There is a Snoopy Musical Cupcake figurine that would make the perfect accent to your birthday cupcakes. This musical figurine features Snoopy standing on the top of a cupcake with Woodstock's helping to decorate it.

You can also use the custom bottle cap images to make your own Snoopy paper cupcake toppers.

There is a Snoopy Cake Pan and a Charlie Brown cake pan that would also work nicely with your party. These cake pans are retired and have been discontinued by Wilton; however, you can still find them on the market.

When purchasing a retired cake pan, sometimes the original decorating instructions are not included. If that is the case, I am including links to decorating instructions for both of these cake pans below.

I found these adorable fondant Snoopy cupcake toppers at justJENN Recipes. Not only are these cupcake decorations super cute, but they are very simple to make. All you need to make these toppers is black and white fondant.

You will find step by step instructions including a photo tutorial on how to make these fondant shapes. Here are the basics:

• Print out an image of Snoopy to use as a visual guide. *You could also trace the image onto wax paper and place the wax paper on the fondant. Then, poke holes through the wax paper onto the fondant to form your guide.
• Mold Snoopy's head out
• Using black fondant create Snoopy's nose, ear, eye and eyebrow

Another favorite Snoopy theme is Schroeder by his piano. This design would also make a great birthday cake for your party. I found this cute Snoopy piano cake at The Mixing Bowl.

The birthday cake was baked in a Wilton Piano cake pan and the piano keys were created using melted white candy disks set in layers in a chocolate mold. To enhance the black on the keys, a black food writer was used. Snoopy was hand molded and the other characters were plastic figures.

You can visit The Mixing Bowl for complete recipe instructions.

I made a Dog Bone Cake awhile back for my daughter's Puppy Dog Party. This would also make a wonderful cake idea birthday.

Bake the cake in a specialty Dog Bone Cake pan. Then, decorate the cake with icing or fondant. You can then top your Dog Bone Cake with Snoopy figures, mini dog bone cookies, fondant shaped dog bones, dog bones sugar decorations, etc.

Dog Bone Sugar Shapes come with six white cake/cupcake decorations.

You can tint these sugar shapes with Wilton color mist to match your party colors.

Each dog bone sugar shape 1-3/4". Simply lay the sugar shapes on your birthday cake or cupcakes.

 Snoopy and his pal Woodstock will help you celebrate one dog-gone great birthday! Includes 8 invitations, dinner plates, cups, forks, spoons, solid-color, placemats, 16 napkins, tablecover, centerpiece, 18 balloons (3 colors), crepe paper rolls (3 colors), curling ribbon (3 colors) and cake candles.
