What dessert suits a birthday for Dad?

For a milestone birthday, a bold, chocolate-forward centrepiece makes the occasion feel special. The Whisky Cake from The Cupcake Factory combines smooth buttercream, glossy ganache drips, premium chocolate shards and bars, and a whisky bottle decoration. It looks striking in photos, suits toast moments, and provides generous portions for sharing.

How do I organise my husband’s birthday?

To make the day memorable:

Choose a meaningful theme—such as whisky, music, or his favourite hobby.
Plan an intimate dinner or casual gathering with close family and friends.
Serve simple food that pairs well with cake, such as a cheese platter or BBQ.
Feature the Whisky & Choc Drip Cake as the centrepiece—it blends sophistication with indulgence and suits men of all ages.
Add a personalised topper with his name or age for a finishing touch.

What cake is best for a 50th birthday?

A 50th birthday deserves something refined yet celebratory. The Whisky Drip Cake is perfect: its whisky detail nods to sophistication, while the chocolate decorations and tall profile make it visually impressive. Paired with a topper, it strikes the right balance between indulgence and elegance for this milestone.

How can I make a whiskey drip cake at home?

Here’s a basic method:

Bake and level your sponge layers.
Stack with buttercream and cover the cake smoothly.
Prepare a chocolate ganache and drip it carefully down the sides.
Decorate with chocolate bars, shards, and curls.
Add a sealed mini whisky bottle or themed topper to finish.

While possible, drip consistency and decoration balance can be challenging. Ordering the Whisky & Choc Drip Cake ensures a flawless, professional result without the trial and error.

What is a whiskey drip cake?

It’s a tall, double-height cake covered in buttercream with glossy chocolate drips, decorated with premium chocolate shards and bars. A whisky bottle decoration sits on top, alongside a celebratory “Happy Birthday” topper, making it photo-ready and festive.

How many guests will a whiskey cake serve?

The cake is available in three double-height sizes:

6" – up to 20 serves
8" – up to 35 serves
10" – up to 50 serves

This makes it suitable for anything from intimate dinners to larger parties.

Which flavours can I choose for a whisky drip cake?

Select from:

Vanilla
Chocolate
Marble (vanilla and chocolate swirl)
Red Velvet

Each cake is layered with vanilla buttercream unless a different filling is requested.

How much notice is required to order the Whisky & Choc Drip Cake?

Please allow at least 48 hours’ notice. This ensures time to bake, prepare the ganache, and add the chocolate and whisky-themed decorations.

Where can I buy the Whisky & Choc Drip Cake in Sydney?

Ordering from The Cupcake Factory, you can order online for Sydney-wide delivery, or collect directly from:

Unit 6, 43 Herbert Street, Artarmon NSW 2064

How should I store and serve a whisky drip cake?

Keep the cake in a cool spot or refrigerated overnight. Bring it to room temperature 2–3 hours before serving so the buttercream softens and the cake tastes fresh. Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

Are whisky-themed cakes trending?

Yes. Chocolate drip cakes topped with premium chocolates remain one of the most popular choices for adult birthdays. Adding whisky as a decorative accent has become a trend for men’s milestone birthdays, symbolising sophistication and celebration.

Can I personalise the topper or message on my drip cake?

Yes. While the standard “Happy Birthday” topper is included, you can request alternative wording, age numbers, or even a personalised plaque. Flavour variations and colour adjustments can also be made to suit the celebration.

What else should I add to the table for a 50th birthday?

Keep accompaniments simple so they complement the Whiskey Cake:

A small cheese and charcuterie plate
Dark chocolate squares
Espresso or liqueur shots

These items enhance the whisky and chocolate theme without overshadowing the cake.

What drip cakes are trending for men?

For men’s birthdays, current drip cake trends include:

Chocolate overload – stacked bars, shards, and curls for a rich, bold look.
Whisky or bourbon detail – a miniature bottle or themed topper adds a masculine touch.
Dark palettes – black, navy, or metallic accents mixed with chocolate drips.
Simple elegance – fewer colours, clean drips, and a focus on flavour.

The Whisky & Choc Drip Cake combines these elements into a design that feels celebratory, sophisticated, and distinctly suited to men’s milestone events.
