Parents all over the world love to mark the early years (1-7) as major milestones. After all, so many changes between these years and those are the years when a child experiences the most wonder and awe at being the center of attention. Birthday celebrations will never be that special and fun without these party essentials.
Share-size Birthday cake
Small or big though it may be, when someone’s celebrating a birthday, there is definitely a cake. Most often, it comes with candles on top. You can either make your own or opt for a Birthday Cake Delivery. Choose from these most popular cake types to take advantage of time-tested options:
- Sponge cake, which is the most common, is firm but well-aerated. It tastes best when filled and, or coated with whipped cream, making it a perfect match for birthdays in the summer when lighter fair is preferred.
- Biscuit cakes are made similarly to sponge cakes, but only with crushed biscuits as an added ingredient. While sponge cakes are just left to cool down, biscuit cakes require refrigeration to achieve the perfect texture.
- Fondant cake is so popular nowadays. Basically, one can just use any cake, but what makes it different from others is its fondant icing which is made of buttercream that can withstand in a twenty to twenty-five degrees room temperature. The stylish and sometimes even 3-dimensional designs created for fondant cakes make them a bit more expensive than others.
