How old is she now? Tell your guests to check out the cake. Here's how to make number birthday cakes.

A Number Cake, also called a Cream Tart or Alphabet Cake, is a trendy way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or new year! These number "cakes" are really more like cookie tarts since the base is made of crisp shortbread with creamy filling rather than a more traditional sponge cake with buttercream.

Turn store-bought and homemade cakes into numbers and make every birthday feel like th milestone that it is.
