Who says birthday cakesare only for children? Whilethe interests of yourteenage child may not bethe same as when he isseven or eight years old, itdoesn't necessarily meanthat he no longerappreciates a homemadecake for his birthday.

If you want to surprise the

birthday celebrant on his

special day, here are

designs for tweens and

teens.

Tips for a Cool Birthday Cake for Your Teenager

1. Incorporate pop culture

references

Most teens are interested in

anything "popular."

Be it the latest music trend, TV show, social

media, boy band, or celebrity, they will lap up

anything their friends and peers find

awesome and cool. If you want a cake your

teenager will like, choose a cake design the

incorporates pop culture references.

Be it the latest music trend, TV show, social

media, boy band, or celebrity, they will lap

up anything their friends and peers find

awesome and cool. If you want a cake your

teenager will like, choose a cake design the

incorporates pop culture references.

For example, you can choose a cake that resembles

a mini iPod or one that comes in the shape of the

logo of his favourite social media application like

Snapchat or Instagram.

2. Consider your child's interests

In case your kid's not much of a pop culture fan, why

don't you use your child's hobbies and interests as

inspiration for the design of his birthday cake?

For example, if your kid is a fan of cricket, you can make

him a cake in the shape and with the design of a cricket

bat. Or if he's into music, you can make a cake in the

shape of an acoustic or electric guitar.

3. Use your kid's favourite colour

If your kid has so many interests and hobbies that

choosing a specific theme for the birthday cake seems

next to impossible, then you definitely can't go wrong

with this approach: choosing a cake in your kid's

favourite colours.

With a cake that's in his favourite tones and shades, the

birthday celebrant will surely appreciate your effort no

matter what cake design might be.
