What should I do for a 16th birthday party?

Planning a 16th birthday is about making it fun and memorable. A good plan includes:

Choosing a theme that reflects the teen’s personality, like glam, rainbow, or retro.
Organising music, games, or entertainment to keep the energy high.
Decorating with bright balloons, lights, and banners for impact.
Preparing a mix of easy foods that guests can enjoy casually.
Ending with a show-stopping dessert — the Rainbow Swirl Cake, with its pastel drip, swirled buttercream, and sprinkles, brings the perfect mix of colour and celebration.

What cake should I get for a 16th birthday party?

A 16th birthday deserves a kid’s cake that is striking and fun. A rainbow swirl cake is perfect because its multi-coloured buttercream and playful sprinkle finish give it an exciting look that matches the energy of the celebration. It’s whimsical, stylish, and comes with a “Happy Birthday” topper included, so it’s ready to make a lasting impression.

Are drip cakes still trending?

Yes, drip cakes remain one of the most popular cake styles. Their glossy ganache or coloured drip adds drama and elegance, while sprinkles, toppers, or swirled buttercream make them versatile for any event. A rainbow drip cake stands out by combining the modern drip effect with vibrant swirls, making it ideal for birthdays and parties.

How can I make a rainbow drip cake?

If you’d like to try baking one yourself, here’s a simple approach:

Bake layered sponges in your chosen flavour.
Cover the cake in white buttercream for a clean base.
Separate buttercream into bowls and tint with rainbow colours, then swirl on top.
Prepare a pastel ganache and carefully drip it around the edges.
Finish with sprinkles and a topper for extra flair.

While you can make one at home, ordering the Rainbow Swirl Cake ensures a professionally finished look with flawless colours, smooth drip, and perfect swirls. Save your time and energy and order from The Cupcake Factory.

How many guests can a rainbow swirl cake serve?

The rainbow swirl cake is available in several sizes to suit different gatherings:

4 inch double height – up to 8 serves
6 inch double height – up to 20 serves
8 inch double height – up to 35 serves
10 inch double height – up to 50 serves

This flexibility makes it suitable whether you’re hosting a small family celebration or a large party.

What flavour options are available for a rainbow swirl cake?

You can choose from four classic flavours:

Vanilla
Chocolate
Marble (Vanilla and Chocolate)
Red Velvet

Each base flavour complements the colourful buttercream and pastel drip, so the cake tastes as good as it looks.

Can I personalise a rainbow swirl cake with a message or topper?

Yes, you can add a short piped message to the board or choose a custom topper. The rainbow swirl cake already includes a “Happy Birthday” topper, but adding a name or age makes it even more special and tailored to your event.

How far in advance should I order a rainbow swirl cake?

Orders need a minimum of 48 hours’ notice. This ensures the cake is baked fresh, decorated with colourful swirls, and finished with sprinkles and drip detailing, ready for your celebration.

What’s the best way to store a rainbow drip cake before the event?

To keep your rainbow drip cake looking and tasting fresh:

Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight.
If needed, refrigerate lightly covered, then bring to room temperature before serving.
Avoid handling the drip or buttercream to keep the decorations intact.

Where can I get a rainbow swirl drip cake in Sydney?

You can either collect your rainbow swirl cake or arrange delivery from The Cupcake Factory:

Delivery: Available across Sydney, with costs calculated at checkout.

What makes a swirl cake different from a regular cake?

Swirl cakes feature multi-coloured buttercream piped in elegant patterns, often combined with drips and sprinkles. This creates a vibrant, whimsical effect that standard frosted cakes don’t offer. The Rainbow Swirl Cake captures this perfectly, blending artistry with indulgence.

Why are rainbow cakes so popular right now?

Rainbow cakes are loved because they’re bright, joyful, and instantly lift the mood of any event. Their colourful designs appeal to both kids and adults, making them versatile for birthdays, milestones, or even casual celebrations. The Rainbow Swirl Cake takes this trend a step further with pastel drips, multi-coloured buttercream swirls, and sprinkles, giving you a dessert that’s both on-trend and unforgettable.
