It never fails to touch the heart and whet one's appetite. Whether elaborate or simple in its design, sweet or savory, a birthday cake creates memories that can make us smile and feel loved even in our twilight years.

So, who was the person who created the first birthday cake?

According to Food & Wine, it was the ancient Romans who invented the birthday cake. The custom was to bake a cake made of flour, honey, nuts, and yeast to celebrate the 50th birthday of someone -- a male -- who enjoyed prestige in society.

Weddings were also celebrated with cakes during the ancient Roman period. But the tradition of lit candles on birthday cakes originated with the ancient Greeks. Part of the people's worship of Artemis -- the goddess of the moon, chastity, and hunting -- was bringing moon-shaped cakes to her temple and presenting them with lit candles to make them glow just like the lunar body.

Then, in the 18th century, kiddie parties with birthday cakes became popular in Germany. But, at that time, people made the lit candles burn all day and consumed the birthday cake at dinnertime.

It was the Age of the Industrial Revolution that made birthday cakes affordable to everybody through mass production. Multi-layered cakes were invented, and more ingredients were incorporated. Now, the world has a limitless collection of cakes for every occasion, with people never getting tired of the joy and deliciousness they bring into our lives.

But hey! It's not only humans who enjoy celebrating with birthday cakes. Pit bulls, too!

For more than 20 years now, I’ve been devoting my heart, energy, and time to fulfilling my dream, which – many people may agree – is not among the easiest aspirations in life. Part of my happiness is having been able to lend a hand to many individuals, companies, and even governments as an investigative journalist, creative writer, TV director, and radio broadcaster.


At home, I spend my free time learning how to cook various cuisines. Tiramisu, chocolate mousse, and banoffee pie are my favorite desserts. Playing with our dogs, Mushu and Jerusalem, is also a special part of my day. And, of course, I read a lot – almost anything under the sun. But what really makes me feel alive is meeting people from various walks of life and writing about their stories, which echo with the tears and triumph of an unyielding spirit, humanity, and wisdom.
