The interesting history behind having cake on birthdays

Celebrating your birthday with cake brings happy memories and delicious layers of sweetness. According to Patisserie Valerie, the birthday cake tradition dates way back to the ancient Egyptians, with the celebration of their gods. Their coronation day was named as their ‘birth’ day. The Greeks later adopted this tradition and added a cake to the celebration.

According to Just Temptations, nowadays a cake is not limited only for a birthday celebration.

It's a delicious treat and just as Zimasa has shared, it should be enjoyed at any given moment.
