Longevity Cake in Singapore

Longevity cakes are a popular birthday or celebration cake choice amongst the Chinese community in Singapore, particularly for events such as one’s 60th or 70th birthday.

In Chinese culture these birthdays were seen as major milestones and were commemorated with grand celebrations with one’s friends and family. Traditional gifts for such an occasion include a sweet bun called a longevity peach which has been coloured pink and white to resemble a real peach, and has a sweet filling made from lotus or red bean paste in the centre. Gifting your loved one a longevity peach is akin to wishing them longevity, prosperity, and happiness for many years ahead in their old age.

Over the years this tradition has adapted to keep up with the times in the form of longevity cakes. Longevity cakes are usually decorated with traditional Chinese symbols of longevity and fortune such as peaches, koi fish, dragons, and the character å¯¿ (shòu, “longevity”). Mahjong-themed designs are also increasingly popular both as a nod to the popular game and as a wish for the celebrant to receive good and auspicious luck in the years to come. Some modern longevity cakes may even come with a flavoured filling as a nod to the traditional longevity peach.
