Indian cricketer Shubman Gill turned 25 this Sunday (September 8). On the special occasion, his close friend Khushpreet Singh Aulakh shared a series of pictures on his Instagram Stories, offering glimpses of the birthday bash. While we loved how happy Shubman looked in the pictures, our eyes automatically drifted to the delicious birthday cake presented before him. It was a two-tiered vanilla cake, decorated with swirly, knotted patterns around the double base. A fondant number of “25” and a text reading, “Happy Birthday Shubman” were the highlights. Seems like the dessert's white theme was chosen deliberately to highlight Shubman's emerging Test career. How do we know? Well, a figurine representing the birthday boy bowing his head was inserted on the top of the cake. The figurine holds a special significance in Shubman's life as he displayed the same gesture after scoring his first-ever century in a Test match. “Happy Birthday to my brother from another mother” read the side note.

Displayed on a table in front of him was semifreddo with soaked figs, plums and berries. We also spotted tasty mini pancakes served with caviar and cream.
