My Peanut Butter Dog Birthday Cake Recipe

This is our absolute favorite doggie cake recipe! We can't even keep this in the house because Molly smells it from anywhere and won't stop barking for it. Even in the fridge, she situates herself in front of the fridge and barks for cake.

You can make this in any cake pan that you want to but I use a bundt cake pan because it turns out so cute without having to do anything to it. So if you don't want to ice it or decorate it, it's perfect and pretty just plain.

You can also make it however you want to. I have made it without enough flour, and without honey. It was pretty much just eggs and peanut butter but the good thing about dogs is they aren't that picky so they still loved

Doggie King Cake Recipe

I spent almost the first decade of my life living just outside of New Orleans so I am very familiar with King Cake and Mardi Gras, but in case you aren't....

A traditional king cake is a cross between a coffee cake and a French pastry in the shape of an oval. It's decorated in three colors, purple to symbolize "Justice",  green for "Faith" and gold for "Power" and these colors were chosen to resemble a crown to honor the wise men who visited Jesus on Epiphany (the visit of the Magi to Jesus). A small plastic baby is commonly hidden in a king cake. The person who finds the baby in their piece is named "King" for the day and must provide the king cake for the following year.

So there you go! I find it fascinating and fun!



I wanted my "children" to participate in the tradition so I adapted my dog birthday cake recipe to be a King Cake today!

This cake recipe is my dog birthday cake recipe, so it doesn't have to be just King Cake.
I make my dog cakes in a bundt pan but you may use whatever you like, just know the cooking time will differ depending on the pan you use.

Carob and Peanut Butter Valentine's Dog Treats

I still believe dogs make the best Valentine's dates.

#1 I hate dressing up and "going out".......so do my dogs
#2 I don't have to worry about how much I eat in front of them.....
#3 Their idea of the perfect night is the same as mine: me in my sweat-pants, on the couch with them and a bowl of queso

So for those reasons I decided they needed a Valentine's gift. Back when Treat Dreams was a dog bakery, this recipe was one of our top sellers because it smells DIVINE! Like Reese's peanut butter cups.
