Read on to discover the hottest birthday cake trends of 2025 and why Londoners keep choosing Cake Choice for their special moments.

1. Vintage Heart Cakes: Romance with a Modern Twist

Vintage heart cakes continue to steal the spotlight. With soft blush tones, delicate piping, and edible florals, these cakes evoke nostalgia while feeling fresh. Our Coquette Heart-Shaped Cake and Vintage Heart-Shaped Cake collections perfectly capture this look - ideal for engagements, anniversaries, and Valentine’s Day.

Why it works: Heart shapes are timeless symbols of love, and the vintage aesthetic taps into wedding-cake glamour without the hefty price tag.

Cake Choice pick: Coquette Heart-Shaped Cake in raspberry velvet - romantic, eye-catching, and ready for next-day delivery in London.

2. Tall Cakes for Kids: More Height, More Fun

Kids want drama, and nothing says “party” like a towering, multi-tiered cake. Think bold colours, themed toppers, and playful decorations (dinosaurs, unicorns, superheroes - you name it). Our Jungle Lion Cake and Spiderman Tall Cake add that wow factor every child dreams of.

Why it works: Height adds excitement and makes for unforgettable photos. Plus, tall cakes serve more guests - perfect for big birthday bashes.

Cake Choice pick: Jungle Lion Cake with piped leaves and fondant figures - roaringly fun and delivered next day.

3. Coquette Style Cakes: Feminine, Flirty, Fun

Influenced by the French “coquette” aesthetic, these cakes feature ruffles, bows, pearls, and pastel shades. They’re wildly popular on Instagram and TikTok, appealing to Gen Z and social-media-savvy celebrants.

Why it works: The soft, flirty look is instantly shareable, and shareability is everything in 2025.

Cake Choice pick: Coquette Cake in candy pink vintage - delicate ruffles and a handcrafted bow, shipped right to your door.

4. Mini Celebration Cakes: Big Flavour, Small Package

For low-key gatherings or last-minute cake cravings, mini cakes (4–6 inches) are rising in popularity. They are just enough for a handful of guests or for couples wanting a personal celebration.

Why it works: Less waste, lower cost, and perfect for intimate occasions.

Cake Choice pick: Our Mini Red Velvet Cake - rich, velvety sponge with cream-cheese frosting, available for same-week dispatch.
