Purse Cake

A wild and silly adult birthday cake idea for a young woman is a purse cake. This is ideal if she enjoys fashion and accessories. The cake itself can be in a circle shape with white frosting. The outside of the cake is trimmed with hot-pink scalloped frosting. A clear, plastic shoe in the middle of the cake finishes it off.
Numbers

A sheet cake with large numbers on it is a way to have fun with a man on his birthday. Start with a large sheet cake and frost it with vanilla frosting. Add large numbers that reflect his age on his birthday. They should be tall and large enough to fill up most of the cake. Use decorations, such as stars, all over the top of the cake.
