Birthday Cakes There are quite a few possible explanations as to why we have birthday cakes, nobody is completely sure how the tradition started. One possible reason for the birthday cake traditional (which might be true, but nobody is sure) is that the ancient Greeks used to take cakes (round to represent the full moon) to the temple of their goddess of the moon, Artemis. The Greeks are said to have placed candles on the cake to make it look as if it was glowing like the moon Another explanation is the birthday cake started in Germany. Geburtstagorten was a type of cake that is said to have been used to celebrate birthdays.
