Space-Themed Birthday Cake Reveals an Entire Universe When Sliced

Space Birthday Cake Reveals an Out-of-This-World Surprise When Sliced

Want to make sure someone’s birthday out of this world? This spectacular dessert will do the trick! Naushee (aka Pedagiggle) created this multi-layered space birthday cake for her 4-year-old son, Ilyas, that’s as (inter)stellar inside as it on the outside. The exterior of the tall treat features hand-painted planets among the cosmos, while a rocket ship blasts off the top of the cake. If that’s not special enough, once you cut into it, a whole solar system is revealed—including Earth, Mars, and the mesmerizing swirl of the Milky Way.

To create this vanilla-flavored cake, the culinary mom had to employ some creative problem solving. “I wanted to make a galaxy/space cake that was space-y on the outside, but also space-y on the inside,” the baker explains. “I could not find a recipe so I had to improvise.” She started with a white cake recipe in order to have “true colors and white galaxy/Milky Way swirls.” Then, she dropped in food coloring for the green, blue, red, orange, and yellow, representing the planets and sun. These were fashioned into spheres with a cake pop mold and later incorporated into the swirling purple of the overall cake.
