Jesus Birthday Cakes for Christmas

June 22, 2021 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Christmas, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Recipe, Social Media

The Christmas Tradition of Jesus Birthday Cakes. Learn about the meaning of Christmas and the symbolism found in these inspiring nativity cakes including reasons for colors and shapes.

Jesus Birthday Cakes for Christmas

Christmas has become lost in the commercialization of the season. My family and I have worked hard to return to the reason we celebrate Christmas. The coming of Christ. One way we have done that is through a Birthday cake for Jesus.

“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace.” Isaiah 9:6

Christmas Traditions

We began the Jesus Birthday Cake Christmas Tradition in 2012 when my girls were 3 and 4 years old. There wasn’t much on Pinterest, it was pre the dawn of Kid’s Baking Championship, and we baking that cake like a box cake mix champ. In sweet fashion, though, my girls wanted the picture shared with the world of social media. I took their photo and my daughter asked… “Mom, are you sending that picture to baby Jesus?” Yes, sweet girl. I am. Consider that cake seen and loved!

If you are in the early age of beginning Christmas traditions, cross cookies for Santa off your list and make a Birthday cake for Jesus. You could even leave a piece for Santa on Christmas Eve. It’s an excellent way to focus on the reason for the season and bring it all back home to why we celebrate Christmas.

Symbolism in Jesus Birthday Cakes

While all of these cakes might just look like another Christmas cake or nativity scene, many offer symbolism in the colors and shapes. Take a look at these cake characteristics that tell the story of Christ.

Jesus Birthday Cake Colors and Shapes

Chocolate Layer – The darkness represents all people have sinned.

Red Layer – The red color reminds us that the blood of Jesus was shed for the forgiveness of our sins.

Green Layer – When we accept Jesus, we have new life in Jesus and begin to grow.

Round Cake Shape – Jesus came to the world. The cake shape is round, a circle that is never ending. Just like God’s love.

White Frosting – Righteousness and purity of Jesus covers all our sins. Our sin is covered over by the Jesus who died for our sins. Our sin is washed white as snow.

Red Heart – Christians are Jesus’ messengers and witnesses. Christ first loved us so we are called to follow His example and love others.

Gold Star – The star of Bethlehem that pointed the wise men the way to Jesus. Wise men still follow him today.

Candles – Jesus is the light of the world. Let our light shine before men, that they may see our good works, and glorify our Father in heaven.

Jesus Birthday Cake Bible Verses

Consider sharing the message and gospel of Christ when sharing about the symbolization of your Jesus Birthday Cake.

Round Cake Shape – Share John 3:16

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Chocolate Layer – Share Romans 3:23

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

Red Layer – Share Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

White Frosting – Share Romans 6:23

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Gold Star – Share Luke 2:10

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.”

Candles – Share Matthew 5:16

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Green Layer – Share John 15:5 or Peter 3:18

I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

Close your Jesus Birthday Cake Bible Verses by lighting your candles and singing Happy Birthday to Jesus.

The most popular is the Shepherd On the Search Advent Activity Set from DaySpring.

During the Advent season, begin reading the story of your shepherd’s timeless journey in a beautifully illustrated interactive children’s book, and let the fun begin every day as you hide your shepherd and your children find him in a new place along the search

Also take a look at The Little Christmas Angel by Peggy Barons.

This boxed gift set contains one hardcover color illustrated children’s book, with beautifully designed Christmas Angel doll. The story begins in ancient Bethlehem, but quickly moves into modern times taking the reader on a lively journey with a little angel, right into their own home.

Similar to an advent calendar and a blend of Elf on the Shelf, the Christmas Star From Afar has a hidden star to create a fun and challenging hide-and-seek Christmas game for kids of all ages.

This Gift Set includes soft cover book and 15 piece wooden nativity set additional items – The Star From Afar Stable Animals and Scripture Cards! To play, Set up your nativity. Hide the Star every night. Once your children find the Star move all Three Wise Men to its location.

Also take a look at The Shepherd’s Treasure Book. An advent calendar that eventually brings the gift of Jesus.

The Shepherd’s Treasure is a faith based countdown to Christmas. During the month of December, children follow their Shepherd on a fun, interactive treasure hunt to find the true meaning of Christmas. On Christmas morning, they find their Shepherd kneeling before the greatest treasure of all time: JESUS!

The family Christmas tradition of Advent, often begins on December 1. These Advent Calendar Fillers for Kids will fill your home with the magical delight of the holiday season as they prepare for the coming of Christ and Christmas.

Advent Calendar Fillers for Kids

An Advent Calendar was something that came late to us in Christmas Traditions. It was something I did growing up by lighting a Christmas candle and because I was unaware of other types of calendars, it wasn’t a tradition we formed in our own home until my girls adopted it on their own.

What is Advent?

Advent means the arrival of a notable person, thing, or event. For Christmas, the season of Advent is the time of four Sundays and weeks before Christmas. In Latin, Advent means coming. For Christmas, this is the coming of Christ or the birth of Jesus. Christians use this season of Advent to prepare and remember the real meaning of Christmas. The birth of Christ.

What is an Advent Calendar?

An Advent Calendar is a popular Christmas Tradition for Families. Typically beginning on December 1st, an Advent calendar is a 24-day calendar used to count the days of Advent in anticipation of Christmas. The start date of a religious Advent calendar can vary year to year based on the church, but in every day American tradition, the calendar begins on the first day of December.

On each additional day of advent, a box (envelope, bag, present) is opened. There is only one opening a day. The point of the calendar is not to countdown, but rather to count up towards the days before Christmas. The internet is big on the debate of, do you start with the first number (one) or with the highest number on the calendar. While the entire Advent community is torn, as a family we have started with day one. Think about it like this: if you were using candles for your advent calendar, you’d want to end up with 24 lit candles, not one candle lit.

Homemade Advent Calendar DIY

More and more the tradition of Advent Calendars are beginning to stick. While it used to be hard to find an advent calendar, they can commonly be found online (like Amazon) or in stores like Kohl’s and Target. We prefer turning this into a Christmas craft with a Homemade Advent Calendar. Take a look at he 25+ ideas we have gathered for your own Homemade Advent Calendar.

There is nothing worse than having to open the door a dozen times when you are out of candy on Halloween Night. This sign can easily be hung on the door when you are out of candy or straight out of the steam of passing out candy on Halloween Night. Print and have it ready before the night begins so you don’t find yourself doing it at the last minute!
