FREE Smash Cakes for Your Baby’s 1st Birthday at Stores Nationwide

Baby’s 1st Birthday is an incredible milestone and should be celebrated to the fullest. Smash cakes are a great way to celebrate as they are largely made for your baby to smash up and have a ton of messy fun (they are edible too). Thankfully, many large stores across the states offer free smash cakes (typically with purchase) for baby’s first birthday!
