Why are people giving massive birthday candles on a cake?
Well, it seems like massive birthday candles (or birthday torches) are one of the trends this year. These birthday torches—or as Gen Zs call them, “burn-away cakes”—are layered cakes that are completely overpowered by flaming birthday candles.
Now that Marc Jacobs has done the “burn-away cakes” trend, we’re pretty sure a lot of famous personalities will follow suit.
Before trying the “burn-away cakes” trend, make sure you’re in a safe place so there are no accidents when attempting to blow out those “birthday torches”! Remember, safety first!
