To make a miniature layer cake, cut the loaf in half lengthwise, cover with layers of fruit or icing, and stack.
For a unique touch, cut the loaf into shapes like a heart, number, or initials.
To fit the party's theme, cover the cake with icing that is either pastel or brilliant in color.
For an instant festive vibe, add a "Happy Birthday" topper or ornamental figures.
To add shine to the cake, sprinkle it with edible glitter or shimmer dust.
