Plot[]

First, it is song time, and the Tweenies (excluding Fizz, as she has gone out with Judy and Doodles so that the remaining three Tweenies can prepare for Fizz's surprise birthday party) sing the song Five Currant Buns. The Tweenies then decorate the playroom, while helping Max make Fizz a birthday card, and sing the song "Happy Birthday to our friend". The Tweenies think they have forgotten Fizz's birthday cake, but Max reveals that he has managed to save the day just in time. His friend Katie, who lives next door to him, has made a sponge cake with vanilla buttercream in the middle and strawberry jam in the middle on top of the vanilla buttercream and blue Battenberg icing and decorated with pink battenberg ballet shoes just in time for Fizz's party. He shows Bella, Milo and Jake a video of the sponge cake being made with vanilla buttercream in the middle and strawberry jam in the middle on top of the vanilla buttercream and decorated with blue battenberg icing on top and down and pink battenberg ballet shoes on top by during Telly Time. The cake is delivered to the the table, and Max covers the cake with a cloth to hide it as Judy, Doodles and Fizz arrive. It is now Story Time, and the book Bunny Cakes by Rosemary Wells is read. After the story has finished, everybody celebrates Fizz's birthday by throwing a surprise party. The other Tweenies give their presents to Fizz. A jigsaw from Bella, crayons from Milo and Jelly Babies from Jake. They then show Fizz her birthday card. Then, Max gives the present from him and Judy which is a song book. Then they sing Happy Birthday to Fizz with the birthday cake seen being decorated during Telly Time earlier. The candles on the cake are blown out, and the gang each enjoy a piece of the birthday cake.
