What Birthday Cake to Send — Quick Guide by Recipient
Mum: Fresh cream sponge (light, not too sweet) or white lily-decorated cream cake. Add a pink rose basket. Dad: Chocolate truffle, tiramisu, or durian cream (if he loves durian). Add sunflowers. Wife/Girlfriend: Mirror glaze mousse or strawberry cream with her name. Add red roses. Grandparents: Light fresh cream with longevity decoration (壽/Chúc Thọ). Friends: Matcha, red velvet, or fruit cream cake — fun and shareable. Boss/Colleague: Japanese cotton cheesecake or Basque burnt cheesecake — sophisticated, not personal.
