Cake for b-day!?

[3kiddos]

We’ll be celebrating some birthdays while visiting WDW Dec. 30 - Jan. 6. Where’s the best place to order a cake? Can I request anything at our restaurants in the parks or hotels?

I ordered my nephews bday cake from Disney and they brought it our table at dinner

You can also order flowers and other gifts from Disney too

Might cost you a bit more money but it's convenient.

BUT if you don't want to spend a lot, remember Walmart and I would assume Publix Supermarkets will have a bakery....and being close to the parks, I imagine they would have some pretty nice cake options for the budget conscience!

At any TS restaurant outside MK (no idea why not MK), you can simply ask when you check in for either a vanilla or chocolate cake at the end of your meal. I think it's 6 inches diameter? Can't remember the cost, expensive by normal cake standards but not by the Floral & Gifts elaborate cake standards. Bear in mind you have to take it with you when you leave the restaurant, they won't hold it for you.

Or you can design one and order from Floral & Gifts as people have suggested, and have it delivered to your room or meal. Pretty expensive but convenient.

Or order and collect from Amaretti s in DS (they won't deliver).

Or head to Publix or wherever and buy an ordinary one.

Or make it in your room if you have a kitchen.

I went for option 2 for DS 21st. We were dining in MK so couldn't just get the standard one at the meal, but just ordered the standard one and had them bring it to our room.

In most of the restaurants we went to they gave me (I had a birth - fortnight after all i was 40 ) a cupcake and candle free x

When we visited during our daughter's birthday and marked it on our ADR, she received a free cupcake and candle. I'd simply ask the server discreetly if something is offered, and if not, order a special dessert from the menu to mark the occasion.

...but then again, I'm part of a family that would rather spend extra cash on souvenirs than a celebration cake. YMMV.
