Perfect for the occasion, the new Birthday Cake flavor will be available in a wide range of options. For instance, there's a Birthday Cake Soft Serve, which consists of a rainbow-sprinkled cake-flavored version of the brand's The Original Soft Serve made specifically for the brand's 90th birthday celebration. There's also a Birthday Cake Shake, which takes the same Birthday Cake Soft Serve by layers it with Birthday Cake Crunchies. Other tasty treats include the Birthday Cake Flying Saucer, Birthday Cake Sundae Dasher, [Birthday Cake Carvelanche](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carvelanche), and more. All of Carvel's new Birthday Cake-flavored treats will be available beginning May 20, 2024.
