Two for one: The new birthday cake trend taking over our feeds
If you have twins, are throwing a party for two kids, or your little one simply can’t decide between her two favourite things of the minute for her birthday theme, then this double-sided cake trend might be for you!
It’s basically a cake that features one thing on one side and another on the other.
The impressive Pinterest cakes shown here are not for the timid baker, though. Still, you might get some inspo to create your own simpler version of a double-sided cake.
Check them out.
