The realism ofThe Sims 4knows no bounds; just like the players steeping themselves inThe Sims 4, the Sims themselves grow, evolve, and mature with time. And most importantly, they absolutely love birthday parties!
The Sims 4has been revamped and introduced some featuresthat were not included in previous installments. Among the latest inclusions is the acquisition of a cake; Sims can no longer buy a cake from the build mode; instead, they will have to bake a cake themselves. This not only challenges the baking skills of the Sims but also adds more thrill to the gaming experience. Let’s walk through the delightful cake-making process inSims 4.

How to Make Birthday Cake Sims 4
The cake crafting is a facile one, particularly forSims with good cooking skills, as they can easily bake and create even more intricate cakes. Starting with classics like chocolate cakes is a great way to begin. With time, practice, and cooking adeptness, Sims will be able to eventually master the art of baking gourmet cakes too. Let’s take a look at cake varieties that can be baked:
Sims must follow the following steps tobake a birthday cake.
The White and Chocolate cakes will be available at all cooking skill levels.
Once the cake is baked, Sims have to place it on a countertop or a table stand. They can decorate and make the cake look more appealing by adding candles to it. To do so, click on the cake and select the “Add Birthday Candles” option.

Just like other meals, a birthday cake can go bad if kept on the counter for a long time.
Getting Birthday Cakes from Caterers
There are instances whenSims hold extravagant get-togethersat an outer setting and appoint a caterer for food. Although it may be convenient for Sims, it’s not always a good experience. Since caterers may fail to fulfill demands or make food as per Sims’ preference, there is a possibility that they may not get satisfied, so baking a cake on their own is a better option.
The Sims 4is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
