Birthday Cakes by Mail: Mail Order Bakeries Save Birthdays

Receiving a birthday cake or cupcakes by mail can be a really wonderful  surprise!  Many top-quality bakeries specialize in mail order birthday treats, usually shipped overnight with dry ice.  You’ll find some incredibly special designs that will dazzle the recipient.  If a birthday gathering is taking place, try to subtly find out how many people there will be so everyone gets to sample.

If you think there might already be a birthday cake where you’re sending the gift, decorated cookies, brownies or other sweets pack and ship beautifully and make a great gift.

Here are just a few shops known for their accommodating birthday requests throughout the country.

We Take the Cake has gorgeous oversized cupcakes.

Zingerman’s, purveyors of all foods yummy, offers this delightful birthday cake, shipped frozen.

Black Hound NY offers beautiful gourmet gift baskets with cookie assortments, truffles, spiced nuts and chocolate almond bark to die for.
