Birthday Cakes - A Brief History

"Cakes" have been around for a long time. The Ancient Greeks baked a cake shaped like the moon and put lighted candles on it to honor the goddess of the Moon. The Romans baked cakes to celebrate weddings and milestone birthdays.

In the 18th century the Germans were responsible for several birthday cake traditions. They were the first to celebrate childrens birthdays, "Kinderfeste". which featured course cakes. In addition, they started putting candles on birthday cakes, one candle for each year of life plus an extra candle for hope for the future.

One of the first accounts of blowing out the candles on the cake was in Switzerland in 1881.
