People could not gather in large crowds, inside gatherings were very limited, Zoom was a great option because people could gather safely, and birthday parades were happening everywhere. Lots of people were trying to be as safe as possible while celebrating a loved ones birthday and some even going to extremes. One birthday tradition, blowing out the candles on a birthday cakes seemed disgusting especially if the person blowing out the candles and the people eating the cake did not live in the same household. Delish reports that a Tik Toker posted a video on how to safely blow out birthday candles on a birthday cake and people are loving this idea.
