To quote the peerless Juila Child, “A party without a cake is just a meeting.” Today, birthday cakes for girls and boys (and everyone else!) have evolved into myriad forms, but a cake without a name is not a birthday cake at all. Candles and singing are nice accouterments, but the real key is the name. It is an undeniable human right that on your birthday, you be presented with a sweet confection bearing your own name. Without that, all chaos could break loose and anyone, just anyone, could waltz right in and claim the cake (and more worrisome, the gifts) as their own.
Birthday cakes come in many different sizes and shapes. Kids’ birthday cakes are often tied to favorite toys/hobbies/and movies (you know the one, the one they watch on an endless reel, as soon as it’s over they start it again). Cupcake cakes are also very popular and very easy to serve as they are just pulled apart one at a time. No fuss with a knife or plate! Birthday cakes for adults come in as many sizes, shapes, and flavor combinations as the people they represent. As a cake designer I love creating birthday cakes (with names, obvi) that look great and taste even better.
