The Role Of Birthday Cakes New Jersey

By Marissa Velazquez


Birthday cakes New Jersey play an important role in the tradition of birthdays not just in this area but everywhere throughout the world. They are meant to be presented to a person on his or her birthday. A party like this without this delicacy would really not be termed as complete.

A cake for this purpose normally has small novelty candles just for decoration and a small message such as the name of the person celebrating the occasion can be inscribed on it. After the song happy birthday became popular in the 1900s, the phrase happy birthday began being inscribed on the cake too. Tradition has it that if you make a wish and blow the candles out in one minute, the wish comes true.

The history of these items is traced back to the middle years in Germany where it was used as a method of celebrating birthdays for small kids. They then made the first layer cake something which had not been done anywhere else in the world and it was very sweet as compared to the bread like cakes which were baked during that time. It is however believed that the tradition could have been started by ancient Greek who made moon like honey cakes or bread for offer in the temple of Artemis to the goddess of the moon.

New Jersey has many bakeries distributed all over the county which can bake any type of cake you would require. If you need a special type of cake, you only need to give them the specifications of the cake you want and leave the rest to them. The type of cake is mostly determined by the event being celebrated.

In early days, this was not the case because cakes were mostly round in shape. The reason for the roundness was that most of them advanced from bread and in those ancient times, bread was made by hand. It was fashioned into round balls and the baking took place on hearthstones or shallow pans. The shape that naturally formed was round but with time, baking pans have been developed and they come in various shapes.

When celebrating birthdays, there are several activities that are planned and in some cases the occasion is governed by a tight schedule. However the part where the birthday boy cuts the cake and shares it with those present is the most awaited. It is in fact hard to imagine such an event without the cake because that is what can be referred as the climax of the occasion.

The ingredients used to make this delicacy will determine the type of cake produced. These ingredients will be used differently to suit the taste of the consumer. For instance age may determine the type of cake that the consumer desires. Children will mostly go for the very sweet ones such as those flavored with chocolate.

Birthday cakes New Jersey are often used as a sign of showing love to those who are celebrating their big day. The chocolate used could symbolize a number of things such as love, joy or a strong bond between the people sharing the cake. For an adult, the cake may also be also be accompanied by a bottle of champagne to make it look more lovely.
