Hey There, Designer Cakes!

Ever imagined about the cake-o-story? Well, in ancient times cakes, mostly used to be just breads sweetened with honey. From then, to now, we have moved on with so many advances that we see a whole lot of designer confectioneries, these days. We can photo imprint it. Design it to give a desired shape or even turn it into an absolutely wacky form, by giving it the most absurd shape.
Like/No like this one?

Now, if I tell you, it’s a birthday cake and not a bunch of quirky toilet papers and toiletries!



Coming back to binge of cake-o-story, its decoration dates back to 17th century, when it initially began. There are also rumors that when a French baker wanted to earn more profit out of baking confectioneries, he thought of decorating it.

History also speaks of the ritual called bridal crowning that involved the usage of these. Romans used to prepare exquisite designer cakes, that filled with dry fruits and nuts and everything good to offer it to the Gods during the wedding ceremony. Later it was crushed on the bride’s head with a belief that God will bestow the bride with prosperity. This popular ritual was named as bridal crowing.

Moving on, these delicacies are an absolute treat. From a number shaped cake to a beautiful designer cake, you cannot hate any of it. The sugar rush, wrapped in a fancy cover mesmerizes all across.

The idea of decorating it into numerous designs is embraced worldwide. Confectioneries across the globe, design and style out exclusive ones in what not flavors and shapes.

The sugary wonder adds happiness to every occasion. Surprise your near and dear ones with photo imprinted ones, on their special day. At the convenience of online ordering and midnight delivery you can get a variety of it only on Sendmygift.com
Go cake-o-crazy, this big day.

Who Is "She"

It is a social and political movement that desires to bring a change in terms of equality in every field such as education, political, economic, cultural, personal and social rights for women. It has only one thing in mind, all creature should be treated equally whether male, female or others. And why do we need it??


There are various reasons for this association. Women have been suppressed by society since long ago. Here are some facts why it essential.

Female Foeticide: It is the act of killing the female foetus. This causes abnormal sex ratio. Forget about sex ratio. Isn’t it a crime to kill the innocent? Just because it’s a girl? After that, it is really shameful to blame mother for having a girl child.

Education: Many of them don’t allow them for higher education. Their belief about a girl is that she is meant only for house hold work, then why should she pursue her studies?  They don’t understand schooling is every human being’s right.

Aspiration : It is a frowned upon if a woman is a little bit different. For example, if she doesn’t want to wear girly clothes, wants to fulfil her dreams, doesn’t know how to cook, roams with boys, parties etc. then people will point finger at her character. If a boy does this then why he wouldn’t be wrong? 

Marriage: Is that any rule, women should get married before 25? Aren’t they should give liberty to her choice. It should be her decision, right? Whether she wants to or not, when and to whom. Ok fine, let’s say she gets married. After domestic violence, why she has to stay with her husband? Why doesn’t society take any responsibility for her condition? You are only one who opposes her qualification, life goal, and career. Think once before doing this to your daughter.

Don’t you think everyone should take stand for them? Stop being mean to them. They are human beings just like you. Try to place yourself in her position and feel this discrimination.

The objective is to create a lasting impression. This is achieved through a series of well thought out actions from choosing a gift, wrapping it with no leakage of emotions and delivering it with utmost care.At every stage it requires care and skill. 

Gifting is an art!It requires visualization to know the receiver’s likes and dislikes, patience to find the right one and time to be certain about the gift.

While the focus is on the giver, the recipient gets less credit. Accepting a gesture graciously is also an art. In this case, accepting a person’s gift is allowing the giver to express his feelings. Accepting the gift courteously will make the giver happy which is the ultimate return gift you can give. “You take away all the other luxuries in life, and if you can make someone smile and laugh, you have given the most special gift: Happiness”.
