Animal Cake Themes

All types of animals can be used to shape these cakes. They can be molded and baked in the shapes of dogs, cats, lions, elephants, giraffes, camels, fish, and even birds. It all depends on what the family member ordering the cake feels that the birthday recipient would enjoy most.

Many people celebrating their birthdays have a certain attachment to specific animals either because they like them as pets or because they're simply intrigued with the way they look and behave in the real world in their own unique environments, and these themed cakes celebrate that.

Magical Figures Cake Themes

These can include fairies, elves, hobbits, ghosts, dragons, and symbol and mythical figures from mythology that can be designed onto the cakes in all types of sizes and colorful shapes depending on the type of icing and frosting used.

These are especially appealing for kids birthday cakes, although some adults also find them fascinating in a fantasy and escapist way as well.

Carnival/Circus Cake Themes

These can be exciting and colorful rides and attractive decorations having to do with carousels, circuses and outdoor carnival shows. Entire cakes can be built into the shape of a merry-go-round or a roller coaster for maximum appeal and effect.
