Disco Ball Cake

In the earlier times, in ancient civilizations and tribes, there were special occasions for celebrations. These included idol worships, sacrifices, birthdays of the tribe chieftains, marriages, birth of a new child etc. there were special rituals for all these occasions, be it a sad or a happy reason. Later, as countries developed, there were formal events and occasions where the elders bent rules and allowed a certain amount of relaxation in routine chores. Whole towns and villages gathered to celebrate. Today, we have parties at the drop of a hat and can enjoy such treats as the disco ball cake ;-)

The most basic reason for having a party is to celebrate a birthday, especially for children. We celebrate marriages and anniversaries. We feast on festival days where people of a specific religion indulge in worship and merry making as well. There are national red days where the entire country celebrates. Food in western cultures normally is centered on huge cakes and other dishes. Cakes are delicacies and these days, no party or feast is complete without a cake like a disco ball cake and a cake cutting ceremony.

Combine disco and party in themes

Consider the combination of disco theme and a normal party and you have huge cakes resplendent with shining disco balls. The simplest of ides involves placing a small mirrored ball or an ordinary ball covered with foil to give the disco ball effect. This can be placed on a candle holder or hung just above the icing of the cake to give the disco theme a boost.

Disco themed parties can have the food items related to the theme. Disco ball cakes can also be made with strategically arranged squares of cake covered with glitter that can be licked away. Kids will love such an attractive cake and other people will definitely go gaga over such goodies. Edible glitter come in various colors and flavors. Silver fondant is another option when making a disco ball cakes. These cakes can have different flavors, say chocolate with rum or styled orange cakes. The squares or other geometric deigns have to be arranged carefully or else the effect will not be convincing or aesthetically appealing.
