If you’re one of the “lucky” ones celebrating their birthday during the community lockdown, we know how you feel. Pain, sakit, pait, pighati, and most especially dalamhati is not enough to describe it, but just because we’re practicing social distancing or quarantining at home doesn’t mean you can’t have a birthday cake!
Over the course of the quarantine period, we’ve been through all sorts of food trends but the minimalist cake trend is definitely the most pleasing yet. These regular cakes, designed with minimal colors and decorations, have infiltrated our social media feeds and we are not complaining. More than being Instagram-worthy and aesthetically pleasing, these cakes are also perfect for your birthday!
