A birthday is hardly complete without the right cake, and a birthday cake should reflect your tastes as well as your personality.
Which cake is just right for you? Scroll down to your zodiac sign to find out.
Aries (March 21 – April 19): Cheesecake
Ariens are known for their fearlessness and knack for making audacious choices, so it follows that they'd pick a cake that's hardly a cake at all. Rather than a floury cake, they'll opt for something rich and creamy, and often topped with decadent flavors. A cheesecake birthday is certainly a bold choice.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20): Marble
Given the choice, Taureans will always go for the most luxurious option. They prefer fine, elegant things, liked a marbled cake. Even the word "marble" sounds indulgent and expensive, and the textured appearance of the cake especially appeals to their exceptional senses.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20): Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Cake
Geminis can find it difficult to make decisions, changing their mind often, so their birthday cake selection should be the best of both worlds. A mint chocolate chip ice cream cake definitely fits the bill. It's sweet but refined. It's cake, but it's also ice cream. Geminis hate choosing, and with this cake, they don't have to.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Nutella
Cancerians are complicated, feeling their emotions strongly but not always revealing them to the outside world. Getting to know Cancer's true feelings can be like cracking the shell of a nut. That's why Nutella, the delicious combination of chocolate and hazelnut, particularly appeals to them.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22): Yellow
Virgos tend not to call too much attention to themselves, and they're completely satisfied with a cake that tastes way better than it looks.

As long as the job is done, Virgo will be happy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21): Lemon
Scorpios are a charismatic yet mysterious bunch, and they'll pick a birthday cake that's as unexpected as it is delicious.

Why be predictable when you can be anything but?
