Birthday cakes are one of the most important things of interest in any birthday celebration. A birthday party with no tasty birthday cake will not make that event complete. Regardless of whether or not you are an adult or a kid, you would always be happy to have a cake around. Children are always full of life when they see cakes around and the more unique your cake is, the more your party becomes unique.

Birthday cakes are usually of different types, depending on the ingredients used. People of different ages also have different tastes for them. For instance, kids usually like chocolate flavored cakes. The decorations and icing are always unique and striking and many mothers have always been very creative with the preparation of birthday cakes for their children. In the case of teenagers, they are a bit more mature and are not likely to go for a birthday cake with cartoon characters. click here now if you want to get more about the Emicakes.

Birthdays are always special. It reveals the significance of our existence on this planet. Humans are the beautiful creation of God.

Icing with different sweeteners, cherries, cashew, berries, cinnamon, apricot, pitas, nuts, chocolates and cream spread all over portray a lip smacking and mouth watering look. Birthday cakes are always been paid special attention of love and care.

While tracing the origin of Birthday Cakes many interesting facts come in front. The word ‘Cake’ is said to have coined as early as 13th century and it is said to have derived from ‘kaka’- an Old Norse word. Some historians think that the custom of the birthday cake was observed in ancient Greece. Ancient Greeks began baking cakes using honey.

There we find sweetened bread dough was made in the shape of the baby Jesus in swaddling clothes. In Medieval Days objects such as coins and thimbles were mixed inside the batter. It was believed that the person who got the coin would be wealthy, while the unluckily finder of the thimble would never marry. Whereas today, small figures, fake coins, small candies are more in practice. Now a days even cup cakes are on the top list.

Why it is round in shape in the very begging was a question. Scholars associate religious beliefs and technical compulsions for the same. They started the tradition of placing candles on the cakes for glowing the cake like the moon.

There are various types of Birthday Cakes in terms of flavor and content. Birthday Cakes for kids are very special, because they are the people who worry the most about their cake’s yummy taste. Most of the times young children like Chocolate and sweet strawberry flavor.

Teen agers like whatever new in the city like Blueberry Pecan Streusel and Chocolate Espresso Cakes, Grown ups like to indulge their tongue for Cheese flavors, Hot Chocolate Mousse Torte, wine flavored ones. Fruitcakes and Ginger cakes has a long cultural line too. Decorating birthday cakes with ribbons, flowers and edible ingredients add color to the presentation.

Do you know what is so special for a child’s birthday celebration? It is the birthday cake. They love the moment of cutting the birthday cake. There can be so many gifts for the child, but the center of attraction is the birthday cake. Therefore, it is worth putting a lot of time and money in planning the birthday cake.

More than the taste, we need to concentrate in shape, color, and size of the birthday cake. It is always better if we could design the birthday cake in cartoon characters that are familiar to the children. If the birthday cake is made in the birthday child’s favorite color, they will obliviously love it.
