Chocoholic: “Birthday Cake” Flavor

In recent years, “birthday cake” flavor has been popping up in many different forms. It’s understandable; sometimes you just miss the delicious taste of birthday cake, even when it’s not your special day. Even though the interpretation of what a birthday cake flavor should taste like varies, two flavors seem to be recurrent: it’s usually either cake batter or funfetti (vanilla with sprinkles). Regardless which flavor you prefer, Chocoholic has compiled this list for your birthday cake craving moments.

1. The Baker’s Jar’s Happy Birthday Cake

This one is a birthday cake, except mini and inside a jar. The Baker’s Jar’s Happy Birthday Cake is a vanilla cake filled with sprinkles and topped with vanilla frosting. If you’re closer to Penn campus than the store on 16th and Bainbridge, you can still get this yummy fix at 1920 Commons.

2. Birthday Cake Oreo

Have you ever wished you could turn your sad package of oreos into a birthday celebration?  Well, with birthday cake oreos, now you can! Well, kind of, if your birthday cake is usually dry and crunchy.  You could always bake them into cupcakes to get the true birthday cake effect.

3. Birthday Cake Pop

Available at Starbucks, these cake pops are for cake batter fans.  They have the consistency of stiff raw cookie dough, and the flavor of sugar.

4. Birthday Cake Fro-Yo

Another one for the cake batter lovers, or you could just get vanilla fro-yo and put rainbow sprinkles on top, because apparently sprinkles= birthday cake.

5. Birthday Cake Ice Cream

You can usually tell it’s a birthday cake-flavored ice cream from all the rainbow sprinkles (example above not representative, I just liked the blue-ness). Ice cream cake is also an option.

6. Birthday Cake m&m’s

The name says it all.

7. Birthday Cake Vodka

Yes, this exists, though I have no idea why you would ever want liquid cake.  If I ever wanted to drink a cake, I’d probably just make it into a milkshake.

8. Birthday Cake Protein Powder

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could get swole on a diet made up exclusively of cake? Aside from cake batter flavor, they also have red velvet flavor, if you want to spice things up.  And cake batter actually got great reviews (see the one titled “Get In My B*E*l*l*Y!!!!!”).

9. Birthday Cake Toothpaste

This isn’t technically edible, but you can brush your teeth with the flavor of cake and fight cavities at the same time!  Although it probably tastes horrific, I won’t knock it until I try it.

 

Ed note: In conclusion, enjoy my dog trying really hard to lick a cake pop:
