The Most Popular Birthday Cake Flavors

It’s just not a birthday party without cake! Ever since that first birthday, most of us have been enjoying a delicious cake at least once per year. Serving cake on birthdays is a tradition that dates back over a thousand years to the times of the Roman Empire.

Today, there are so many flavors to choose from, many people wonder, “What are the most popular birthday cake flavors?” With dozens of unique flavors out there, it’s hard to determine which birthday cake flavors are the most beloved. One 2022 survey calculated which cake flavors are most popular in each state. The surveyors then ranked the flavors in order of how many states each flavor had won. The following list contains the ranking from that survey, and to put a Kremp Florist twist on this inventory, we’re telling you which flowers pair best with each of these popular birthday cake flavors.

 

  1. Ice Cream Cake

Ice Cream Cake proved to be the most popular cake in the survey, winning the most US States. And that makes sense, as this type of birthday dessert is primarily made in North America and Australia and is uncommon in Europe. Ice Cream Cake usually contains a variety of flavors of ice cream layered with cookies, cake, candy, or whipped cream. The cake is kept frozen until serving.

Flowers for the ice cream cake lover would be a frosty white dreamy design. White flowers like stock, roses, carnations, and hydrangea recreate the soft whipped icing and icy fresh taste of an ice cream cake.

 

  1. Strawberry Cake

Pretty pink strawberry cake came in second in the survey. Strawberries can be added to the batter to create your strawberry cake, or they may be added on top or placed between layers of cake. Some strawberry cakes are made with strawberry gelatin powder that gives a pink color and fruity flavor to a traditional vanilla cake.

Flowers like carnations, gerber daisies, button mums, and roses come in sweet-as-a-strawberry berry tones. An assortment of pastel pink and deep red flowers creates a summery bouquet that looks good enough to eat.

 

  1. Molten Lava cake

This cake is made of a miniature chocolate sponge cake with a warm melty center. Molten lava cake gets its name from its volcano shape and chocolate ganache center that flows onto the plate once the dessert is cut. The mixture of delicious chocolate cake and warm chocolate ganache makes molten lava cake a chocolate-lover’s dream!

Molten lava cake is rich and decadent just like a bouquet of red roses. Arranged by the dozen and finished with accent flowers and greenery, red roses are rich, regal, and romantic just like the molten lava cake. Kremp Florist’s professional flower delivery service ensures even the largest of 6-dozen rose arrangements arrive on time and in style at your recipient’s door.

 

  1. Angel Food Cake

With a name like angel food cake, this dessert must be good! This cake is beloved for its light and airy texture, achieved by using whipped egg whites and skipping the butter. Angel food cakes are often topped with a simple glaze or fruit sauce that doesn’t overwhelm the delicate and delicious cake.

Angel food cake is known for being light and fluffy, so a vase of loose wildflowers compliments this confection perfectly. Tall and whimsical stems like larkspur, stock, snapdragons add height to a vase arrangement. Seasonal flowers like tulips, daisies, and lisianthus give subtle pops of color and natural shapes and textures. All of these in a clear vase of clean water are as refreshing as a bite of angel food cake.

 

  1. Carrot Cake

Carrot cake must be healthy because it contains vegetables, right? While we can’t attest to its health benefits, carrot cake is one of the most popular birthday cake flavors in the US. Carrots are naturally sweet, so people as far back as the middle ages combined the vegetable with raisins, spices, breadcrumbs, and other ingredients to make carrot puddings and cakes. Today’s carrot cakes usually come with a healthy portion of cream cheese frosting.

Carrot cakes bring to mind orange flowers like ranunculus, roses, gerber daisies, and carnations. These vibrant blooms are sure to spread birthday cheer to anyone who sees them. Order these fresh stems for same day delivery to make birthdays special for those you care about!
