Did you know that the song “Happy Birthday to You” was written by 2 teachers out of Louisville, KY in 1893? The birthday cake is believed to be traced back to ancient Greece, where honey cakes or breads symbolized what we consider today as the birthday cake. The birthday candle was used by German families to symbolize the “light of life.” No matter the history or tradition, celebrating birthdays has always been a part of our society and today those traditions are stronger than ever.
