It's hard for some (i.e., me) to believe, but not everyone loves a great piece of pie - especially the littlest diners at the table. If any members of your family are on that list, consider spicing up this Thanksgiving's sweet selections by going for a nontraditional dessert: cake! From individual-size cake pops and cupcakes to large cakes featuring the holiday's favorite flavors, these nine cakey goodies might just become your family's new Thanksgiving favorites. Keep clicking to find a cake that just might make you say goodbye to pie this Turkey Day!

  • Turkey Cake Pops: OC Pop Shoppe's turkey cake pops are Thanksgiving perfection - no gravy needed.

  • Turkey Cupcakes: I Heart Baking's turkey cupcakes are made of brown sugar pound cake topped with candy corn and M&M turkeys.

  • Pumpkin Spice Cake With Coconut Vanilla Icing: My New Roots's pumpkin spice cake is topped with a yummy coconut vanilla icing and roasted hazelnuts. It's a sophisticated flavor combination, but kids will love the abundance of frosting!

  • Gobble, Gobble Cake Pops: Bakerella is the queen of cake pops, and she doesn't disappoint with these cute turkeys, made with caramel candy corn, coated espresso beans, and pretzel legs.
