Aside from birthday party organization ideas and decorations, birthday cakes are a crucial part of any birthday celebration. Let's explore beautiful, delicious, and reasonably priced birthday cakes in Hanoi with PasGo.
When it comes to birthday cakes, most people often think of sponge cakes, but birthday cakes are not boring at all because there are over 5 special types you can try on your birthday.

1. Traditional Sponge Cake
The traditional sponge cake is the most familiar type of birthday cake, featuring a light and fluffy sponge texture complemented by a layer of fruit syrup jam and enveloped in a fragrant, creamy, neither too sweet nor too bland cream. Nowadays, cake designs are becoming increasingly creative, and the flavors are gradually changing to fit the trends.

If you still prefer a traditional sponge cake for your birthday, you can consider some delicious flavors such as yogurt cake, green tea cake, cocoa, mixed fruits, etc.

2. Tiramisu Cake
Originating from Italy, Tiramisu has become one of the most popular birthday cakes in recent years. The soft, spongy cake base, rich coffee and rum flavor combined with creamy layers between the cake layers are extremely suitable and easy to eat. The cake size has also been increased to accommodate large birthday parties. Moreover, if you're skilled, you can make Tiramisu at home, refer to the recipe here.

3. Mousse Cake
One of the top contenders for 'delicious - unique - unusual' in birthday cakes to try is the Mousse cake. Belonging to the cold cake category, Mousse cakes are very refreshing, with diverse flavors such as: fruits, green tea, chocolate,... combined with rich creamy fresh cream, bringing a unique irresistible taste.

The special feature of this type of cake is its simple, quick, and no-oven-required baking process. You can try your hand at making Mousse cake with PasGo's strawberry Mousse cake recipe here!
4. Cold Cream Cake
Cold cream cake - the name somewhat speaks to the uniqueness of this type of cake. Instead of the usual sponge cake base, the cake uses cold cream as the main ingredient. The cream is poured into cake molds, placed in the refrigerator, and after setting, they are stacked together and decorated into a large cake.

It may look ordinary, but hidden inside the cake is a 'sweet secret' that everyone wants to receive on their birthday
Although this type of cake is delicious and unique, it requires strict storage conditions and is only suitable for air-conditioned birthday parties.
5. Cheese Cake (Cheesecake)
Using ingredients quite similar to Mousse cake, however, Cheese Cake also incorporates cream cheese with a slight tangy taste. This is the main component that makes this birthday cake delicious and unique.

6. Other Types of Birthday Cakes
In addition to the 5 types mentioned above, there are many other unique versions of birthday cakes such as:
- Tart/Pie: This type of cake has an outer crust, with fruit/cream cheese/chocolate filling inside. It's perfect for those who don't like starchy cakes.

- Cream Puff Cake: A familiar type of cake, with a thin crust outside and fresh cream/custard filling inside. When stacked together in cylindrical or tower shapes with cream or melted sugar, cream puff cakes become a very interesting birthday cake option.
