It is very common for us to celebrate our birthday with a wonderfully designed and tasty birthday cake. Keep in mind; it was the Greeks that were the first to make a cake for celebration. It was commonly used in the celebrations of the birthdays for gods and goddesses.
For those who were wondering who came up with placing candles on the cake, well, it was the Greeks as well. It was because if the Greek god Artemis, where the cake was first topped with lit candles. In the middle ages, the English would conceal symbolic items inside the cake. Each item was a prediction for the finder’s future.
