A Classic for Your Favorite's Birthday: Stylish and Simple Korean "Seonil Cake" Decorations

Do You Know about "Senil Cake"?

There are already over 12,000 posts about Senil Cake on Instagram.

Did you know this word....???

In Korean, it is written as "생일케이크".

It means birthday cake ♡

It’s not decorated a lot. The design is simple.

Korean-style Senil Cake is not like Japanese birthday cakes, which are typically decorated with whipped cream and piled high with fruits.

Instead, it features a round, single-layer cake with:

✓ Cream spread flat,

✓ Modestly topped with fruit,

✓ A message drawn in the middle.

The design is characterized by a simple cake, not overly flashy or fancy, giving off a distinctly Korean café vibe.
