Who needs two cakes for your dog’s birthday party? With ingredients like peanut butter, banana, and coconut oil, humans will be happy with these dog birthday cake recipes too. They’re also (mostly) sugar-free, sometimes dairy-free, and always healthy for your dog—in moderation.

Milk Bar Inspired Cake for Dogs

This gorgeous, dog-friendly cake is SO epic, based on the trendy pastry by Christina Tosi, that your friends will be raving about it for years. Is it a lot of work? Well, yes. But the result is truly stunning. This video takes you through it, and you can get the written recipe here.

The ingredients for this fruity cake are all familiar: eggs, honey, coconut oil, coconut flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, coconut milk, and fresh blueberries. Mix, bake, stuff face—it’s as easy as that.

Make it a real splurge by serving with a scoop of dog-friendly ice cream.

Cupcakes are easy to share with all your dog’s friends! These feature simple ingredients like applesauce, yogurt, and oat flour, plus a little dog-safe carob powder for a chocolate-like experience your dog can safely enjoy. You can get the full recipe here.
