Keep the personal touches meaningful
Names, ages, colours, hobbies, cultural details, humour, florals, and toppers all work, but too many ideas make the cake feel messy.
Choose the details that make the person feel recognised.
Questions about this topic
Can a milestone cake be elegant instead of novelty?
Yes. Say whether the tone should be minimal, floral, refined, playful, or theme-heavy.
Should I mention the party style?
Yes. A home dinner, restaurant event, and larger function each need different size and transport planning.
