Ice Cube Tray
Yup, penis-shaped ice cube trays. These are great for making ice cubes for drinks to serve at your bachelorette party. I’ve only hosted a few parties before (most of the time I was just in charge of the cake for another girl planning the party), but I used these and they went over really well. This isn’t exactly the tray I used but I couldn’t find the one I used online and this one looked pretty good. And this comes with 2 trays of 8 ice cubes each, so if you get a couple of these and freeze ice a couple of times before the party you should be all set. Plus, the name of this is really clever and funny - blue balls, haha! Classic.
I also found this one which makes more detailed ice cubes but they’re smaller I guess.
But I thought I’d post it for variety of options. Anyways, sorry about this deviation from the topic that the blog is supposed to be about, but I hope it helped. I’ll get back to tips for penis-shaped cakes next time, I promise!

Chocolate Penis Pops
All you have to do is melt the chocolate down, fill the mold, stick some lollipop sticks in (you can also find these where you find your chocolate), and stick it in the freezer to cool for a couple of hours. It only takes a couple of hours for them to cool, so you can make these kind of last minute, but just to be safe I usually let them sit in there over night. Anyways, I would totally recommend these for your party, because cakes can be sort of hit or miss - some girls don’t like certain flavors, some just won’t allow themselves to eat cake because they think it’s by default too fat (which is ridiculous). But honestly, what girl doesn’t love chocolate, and little chocolate penises, no less?

Cookie Cutters
These cookie cutters work great for making penis-shaped cookies for bachelorettes. They’re not really anything special, but they’re sturdy and reliable and there’s three different sizes which can actually be really useful. The smallest size works good for making cookies to put on top of cakes sometimes. As for the other ones, I usually make a batch or two of penis-shaped cookies to have at the party in addition to a cake. Sometimes if it doesn’t seem like there’s going to be a lot to do, I even bring frosting and sprinkles and other things so the girls can decorate their own cookies. It’s actually really fun, especially if everyone’s a bit tipsy. Just make sure nobody’s too drunk or they could make a huuuge mess... and nobody wants to clean that up! Cookies are always great to have for people to munch on if you haven’t brought the cake out yet or if it’s already gone. They tend to last a pretty long time.

Cupcake Pans
There’s only six molds in the pan, and you’ll probably want to make more than just six cupcakes. You could just do six at a time, but I personally have three of these, so that when I make cupcakes for a party I can save some time. I’m usually making the cakes the day of the party, so they’re really fresh. But I don’t want to risk running too late with them, so I’ve got more pans than just one. But you can do whatever you want. Anyways, if you or your bachelorette is a fan of cupcakes or you just want smaller finger foods for the ladies at your party, this is the cake pan I’d recommend for making those. Oh, and a tip, it isn’t non-stick so you’ll have to spray it down before baking.

Disposable Pans
And if you want a slightly bigger cake, like my jumbo cake pan makes, there’s a set of 2 jumbo disposable pans as well. It looks the same, but it’s a couple inches bigger. And again, it’s cheaper than the reusable jumbo pan. So if you want to be done with baking penis cakes forever (or at least for the foreseeable future) after your bachelorette party, this is probably the way to go.

Another cake pan
Wow, I was looking back at that post from last week again and I just want to say sorry again. I was acting like a total bitch. But I’m not going to get into that any more, so anyways.
Today I just want to show you another penis-shaped cake pan that I use sometimes. Here it is:
You can find it here. It’s a bit smaller than the jumbo cake pan I use, so I wouldn’t recommend it for a large party, but it can feed about eight or ten people, in my experience. There isn’t really much special to say about it, I just use it sometimes to switch things up, since it’s a little differently shaped from the others. There are quite a few pans out there to choose from based on your personal preference of shape, so I’ll show you some more as I find them. That’s all for now!

I'm Sorry
No real post today. I just want to apologize for my last post. I had other problems going on in my life and I took it out on the blog. I was misdirecting my anger. I have nothing against boob-shaped cake pans, and the people who called me out on being a hypocrite are right. If I can bake my penis-shaped cakes, guys are just as entitled to their boob-shaped ones. I hope that last outburst won’t stop any of you from reading my blog. Sorry again.

Something for the guys...
Why are guys so immature?
I was out running with my boyfriend earlier today, and we were talking about the blog. He knows I make penis-shaped cakes, and he thinks it’s absolutely hilarious. Of course he does. Well, today he suggested I see if there are any boob-shaped cake pans. Because, you know, I have to be fair to both sexes. He started on some bs rant about gender equality and all that. In short, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about and was just trying to piss me off. Well, guess what, it worked. And here you go, for all the guys out there demanding gender equality, here’s your damn boobie cake pan.
There you go. Happy now? I hope you choke on it.
Ladies, I’m sorry. This probably isn’t really that big of a deal, and I’m just overreacting. And I probably shouldn’t be posting this while I’m still angry at him. I’m sure I’ll regret it. But the men have to have their boobie cake pan asap. Ugh, there are just so many ways he’s immature sometimes. It’s like I’m dating a child. He knows I’m not really angry about this, and he and I both know what I’m really angry about. And he still won’t apologize. Oh well, that’s not what this blog is for, so I’m not going to get into that. That’s all for now, enjoy your boobie cake pans, you immature little boys.

Decoration Tips
Now, you’ve frosted your cake, but it’s still missing something. Maybe around the ball area? If you’d like to add some “hair” to your cake to make it more realistic, Chocolate Jimmies will work great. It’s as simple as that! Now, if you want to add a finishing touch – emphasis on finishing – to your cake, simply squeeze out some white frosting in the right place on whatever tray you’re transporting the cake on. And voila, your cake is a decorated and fully realistic representation!

Cake pans
It makes great looking cakes, it only takes a half a box of cake mix, and it’s durable so you can use it over and over again, unlike some cake pans that are disposable. I’m still using the second one of these I ever bought, and that’s only because I lost the first one at a friend’s house one night. There’s also a jumbo version of it available, which looks the same but uses a full box of cake mix.
This isn’t the only pan I use, but I’ve really got to go now, so I’ll have to tell you about the others another time. Bye for now!

Hey Everybody
I’m Olivia, but everyone I’ve ever been to a bachelorette party with knows me best by my unofficial title – the penis cake queen. I know it probably doesn’t sound like too great a reputation to have to any of you, but I love it and wouldn’t have it any other way. See, I love baking, and ever since I went to my first bachelorette party, I’ve brought a penis-shaped cake with me to every one. They’ve always been a huge hit, and all the girls love them. On this blog, I want to share my ideas and tips with other bachelorette party bakers out there. I’ll post baking advice, cake pans I’ve used, stuff like that to help you girls out. Please, let me know what’s worked for you and what hasn’t. Looking forward to chatting with all of you!
