Chocolate bar birthday cake
A coloured cream coating, chocolate bars and cream roses on top, with lettering piped in chocolate. For the bigger round-number birthdays.
Eighteenth, thirtieth, fiftieth – for these anniversaries most people want a cake that stands out without being childish. This build gives exactly that: a single strong colour of cream coating, chocolate bars, cream roses and spheres on top, and the lettering across the front.
We pipe the lettering in chocolate, by hand. That gives the best line, but it also means longer text needs a larger cake – a full “Happy 18th birthday” already asks for room.
Flavours for an adult cake
- Dark chocolate ganache with coffee sponge
- Sour cherry and cream with cocoa sponge
- Lemon and mascarpone, a lighter choice for summer
- Chestnut, in winter
Lead time
One week. If you want a figure or a print alongside the lettering, one and a half.
