# Movie Anniversary Cakes The Delorean Cake Celebrates 'Back to the Future' By Meghan Young | Published 2010-11-06 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-cake References: [gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/5682370/are-you-telling-me-you-made-a-deloreanout-of-cake) & [charmcitycakes](http://www.charmcitycakes.com/) Is that DeLorean cake on fire? Oh no, that's just the smoke from the tire treads. Whatever it's from, the smoke makes me question whether this is a cake at all -- it's probably one of the [most realistic ones I've ever seen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artful-cake). Created by Charm City Cakes, the [DeLorean cake was baked](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wicked-celebration-cake) to celebrate the 25th anniversary of 'Back to the Future.' You can even see the star-studded turnout behind it. Yes, that's Michael J. Fox taking a closer look at the amazing DeLorean cake -- see more images in the gallery above. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Realistic Movie Cakes:** Creating highly realistic cakes that celebrate iconic movie anniversaries with intricate designs. - **Celebrity Cake Endorsements:** Using celebrity endorsements to promote specialty cakes and attract attention from fans. - **Custom Cake Photography:** Capturing high-quality images of elaborate custom cakes to showcase the artistry and craftsmanship involved. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Bakery:** Bakeries specializing in creating custom cakes for special occasions and events. - **Event Planning:** Event planning companies incorporating unique and visually striking cakes into their event designs to create memorable experiences. - **Film and Entertainment:** Film studios collaborating with cake designers to create promotional cakes for movie anniversaries and release events. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Balloon Dog Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balloon-dog-cake.md) - [Layered Horror-Comedy Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuicethemed-afterlife-cake.md) - [80s-Inspired Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-e.md) - [Celebratory Cheesy Snack Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetleinfused-birthday-cake.md) - [Retro-Futuristic Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-cyberpunk-concept.md) - [Family Movie-Themed Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freakier-friday-key-lime-blackberry-cake.md) - [Filmic Frozen Yogurt Flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yogurtland-and-back-to-the-future.md) - [Movie-Inspired Gullwing EVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-motor-company.md) - [Cheese Puff Birthday Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetos-birthday-cake.md)
