Childhood memories and vast quantities of sugar. It's a winning combination.
On Saturday, more than 100 cakes you are sure to remember from pre-teen birthday parties went on display at the Hyatt Hotel in Canberra, Australia. In an effort to raise money for the perinatal depression charity Pandsi, talented bakers remade retro cakes from the beloved 1980s cookbook, the Australian Women's Weekly Children's Birthday Cakes.

The "Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe" cake raised the most cash on the day, winning a solid A$650 ($478.83), but each of the book's 107 masterpieces were represented.
Race car cake covered with liquorice bullets? Check. Snail cake, complete with a ton of M&M's? Check. It's enough to give you that special post-birthday party stomachache you used to get after swiping too much icing.
