Tetris birthday cake for the kid gamers (and it's easy and cheap to make!)

Photo Credit: fraskedesigns.blogspot.comIf you're into making inspired, homemade birthday cakes for your kids, this idea is for you. Especially if your children love video games. And most especially if they favor the classic, Tetris.

Brownies, colored frosting and a little attention to video game detail will make little gamers swoon over this cake. Yes, swoon because let's face it -- do you think they've ever seen a Tetris birthday cake before? Nope.

In fact, I'm starting to think this would be an awesome idea for those school birthday parties where you have to bring cake into class. Super easy to hand out to kids.

Very simple to make and it'll cost you less than 15 bucks to make. You'll need one box of brownie mix, 2 containers of white frosting and some food coloring. And please, don't feel the need to match specific colors. Mix shades that make this project easiest. (Also, you can probably use any other flavored cake mix. Brownies are just easier to cut.) You can get more details here.
