Happy Happy b-Day!
Too. Cute. To. Eat.
Happy 3rd birfday to Sparky, apparently! I wish you menny menny more.
:)
Now I have to wonder if Sparky is a dog, a cat, or a child...
Gumbercules - Sparky, he of the Roofees-interview fame, is our beloved Meg's hubby!
HAPPY BURPDAY, SPARKY!!!
Oh, and the cake is adorable!
Is this hedgie what they mean when they say 'soft kronsche'? ;)
Good to know the cute dried up for a happy occasion though.
Sparky is Meg's hubby, the manly inspiration for Cute Overload!
Happy birthday Sparky, Have fun Meg. May all your cakes be Ice cream cakes. The bestest kind ever.
Sparky spotting!

Many happy returns of the day, Sparky!
So Meg and her hubby are both leos! That... makes so much sense.
Yummy!!!!!!!!!!
Have a sparkling Birfday Sparky.Have you still got your magic piano?
Wait, I'm confused. Sparky is 3 years old and Meg's hubby? "Hubby," as in male HUMAN companion? But he's 3!?
Rebecca, silly, he's not 3 years old. He's 3 HEDGEHOGS old, which is, like, 34 or so.
Happy Birthday Sparky !!!!
What kinda cake is that ?
I hope the parting does not get out of hand over at the CO headquarters their will a lot strange looking posts if it does!?!?!?!
half cat-half ferret.,
half horse-half moose
who knew?????????
Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday, Sparky!!!!!
My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Meg eating ice cream with Sparky at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious
Looks TOO good to eat!
CBF good one!
everyone else - that may look 2 good 22 eat but if its ice cream I'd make the sacrifice.
Sparky - Happy Happy Joy Joy!!!!
happy birthday Sparky!
I always thought Meg and Theo.. silly me.. sorries

And ice cream cake-it reminds me of the Carvel Ice cream cakes of my youth in New York. Oh how I love the little chocolate crunchy bits in the center. What are those made of?

Happy Birthday Sparky. May you have many many more.
T - does Meg know you're talking about Sparky's 'tocks?
Anyone who inspires the cute deserves the most excellent birthday every. Go, Sparky!
Laurie: no, but *I* do....hmmm....
Aww...Happy Buffday, Sparky! Celebrate by spending the day as you did your first (laying around naked while your every need is provided for)...
And while the hedgie-cakes look delicious, I'll need reassurance that "salted caramel" flavored ice cream wouldn't ruin it all :-p I remember trying salt on my ice cream as a kid: I can...still...taste...the nastiness...BLECH
Wow, two birthdays in two weeks! Happy Birthday!
And that is the cutest cake -- and cakelette -- I've ever seen.
And the hedgie cake is vegan -- that is teh awesum!
Happy Happy Birth Birth Day Day!
(lameo version of the happy happy joy joy dance/song)
Bestest wishes and funz for yew both. & Meg, I can sympathize having a SO who has a b-day close to yours. (they get more presentz I swear!)
BUT still, happy day to both of you.
happy birfday sparky!
that cake looks too good to pass up! may i have some?
What kind of dog is Rufus?! I want!
Oh yes.. Happy birthday Sparky!
Happy Birthday, Sparky!
The hedgehog cake recipe looks like a British English translation of Wacky Cake--it's on epicurious.com and probably a million other places on the web. Easy-peasy tasty recipe...mmmmm chocolate cake.
(If you want to try the hedgehog recipe as posted I'd bake at 350F, not 400F...cake nerd, sorry.)
there is WAY too much hidden talk on here LOL I was majorly confused. Well..Happy THIRD hedgehog birthday to the HUSBAND?
Ok!
That cake scares me. Almost as much as the idea of vegan cream cheese. What the heck goes into that? Condensed non-dairy creamer?
Although admittedly, the baby is cute.
Did anyone click on the "salted caramel ice cream" link!? I'm soooooooooooo going to that ice cream shop the next time I'm in San Fran!! I will be ordering the Honey Lavender ice cream & the Balsamic Strawberry pie.
Gives another meaning to "I'll eat you with a spoon."
Jwlls -- Yes. Oh my god. I can has pineapple mint popsicles now? :)
Happy birthday, Sparky!
Happy belated birthday Sparky! My dad made me a chocolate hedgehog cake for my 9th birthday. He made the quills by cutting Cadbury's buttons in half and sticking them in the cake. Happy memories of a delish cake.
