We know what you’re thinking. “Who in their right mind doesn’t like cake?” Believe it or not, many people opt out of the sweet treat. This roommate found an easy way out. Instead of cake, they provided birthday lasagna, complete with pasta candles. @genuinefred pasta candles ftw #pastalover #cakedecorating #cakecandles ♬ so this is love – soft girl aesthetic For some people, the texture of the cake is unappealing. Others might be diabetics and limit their sugar intake. Gluten, wheat, and egg allergies, as well as Celiac disease, all mean no cake for many. Whatever the reason, if you know someone who doesn’t want cake for a special day, offer something they like. Birthday candles make it a celebration no matter what you choose to serve. When one family had a son who loved rotisserie chicken, they gave him that instead of a cake. The sheer delight on that young boy’s face was incredible. Lasagna, meatloaf, macaroni and cheese, or prime rib. Make it, serve it with a candle, and poof! Instant cake alternative. Image from TikTok. You can get fancy with specialty candles as the roommate did. We don’t know where they found pasta candles, but they are available online. You can get plain candles, numbers, letters, or any combination. We even saw some champagne bottle candles. If you want to pull out all the stops, there is always the Musical Rotating Lotus Design Candle. It spins and blooms in a rainbow of colors (and it’s scary). If you think about what makes a birthday celebration great, it isn’t always the cake. Sometimes, being around people who care about you and bring you smiles is the best gift you could ever offer them. So, if someone on your list doesn’t like cake, don’t be afraid to experiment with different favorite things. Please share. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
