What is the History of the Birthday Cake?

The ancient Egyptians thought that when pharaohs were crowned, they became gods, hence the birthday tradition. As a result, their coronation day was also their ‘birthday.’ (It sounds like a fun job until you realize there aren’t any dessert sweets.)

The Greeks first adopted this custom and added cake to it. What’s the point of cake? On their birthdays, the Greeks required something to bring to Artemis, the goddess of the moon. The Greeks began by preparing moon-shaped cakes and decorated them with lit candles to make them appear like the moon. That was a brilliant concept!

Birthday cakes did not always taste as good as they do now. Sweet cakes were only for the wealthy because sugar was costly and challenging to come by. The Industrial Revolution brought us conveniently accessible sugar and other ingredients, which was a relief. Cakes can now be baked from scratch or purchased ready-made.
