A cake isn't necessary but is a nice way of saying "thinking about you on your birthday."
To take the time to bake and decorate a cake for your loved ones on their birthday is a nice gesture of love and appreciation. Besides, you get to share it with them.

In search for answer, I got this. lol
It originated in Europe, Germany or Greece. They have many stories.
But a cake make the birthday more meaningful and make the celebrant feel more important.

That cake in the picture looks yummy! I suppose it isn't necessary but it is nice to get a cake for a person as a way of celebrating and it can be shared with friends too.

A cake may not be necessary but if I don't get a cake on my birthday I am very disappointed!
