What trending birthday cake should I get?

A heart-shaped, vintage-style cake strikes the perfect balance between classy and trendy. The Vintage Purple Heart Cake boasts smooth sides, dreamy lilac buttercream swirls, and delicate piping that exudes a romantic yet modern feel. It photographs beautifully for birthdays, anniversaries and romantic celebrations without being overly ornate.

How can I set a table for my 30th birthday dinner party?

Keep the setting soft and elegant:

  • Palette: lilac, ivory and a hint of silver

  • Florals: a small cluster of roses or lisianthus in white or lavender

  • Serveware: a simple pedestal stand, glass water jugs, and linen napkins

  • Lighting: tea lights or slim tapered candles

Centre the Vintage Purple Heart Cake and keep other décor minimal so the piping stands out cleanly in photos.

How can I bake a purple heart cake?

You can try:

  1. Bake and level two layers, fill, then chill briefly.
