As caterers… how people celebrate is what Pinch thinks about 24/7. Whether a specific occasion or just because, we pride ourselves in creating fun food experiences that help those celebrating make the moment as memorable as possible.
With the pandemic looming over us, we couldn’t help think of all the different ways our celebrations will have to change… and the birthday cake was definitely top of the list. And then we stumbled upon this brilliant design, Top It Cake Shield, a doctor-invented cake shield created to protect party goers of all ages from spreading germs over cakes while blowing out candles.
By blowing out birthday candles you can increase the amount of germs you’re spreading by 1400%?!? But now with this thoughtfully designed shield & side panels, your cake is protected from all angles.
Top It Cake Shield’s clear material showcases your cake’s Insta-worthy-ness, plus you can fit almost all candle shapes and sizes (even large numbered ones!) in the shield’s proprietary track system – so you can light’em up and blow’em out.

This is BRILLIANT! Nasty tradition BEFORE COVID (if you ever thought about it – I didn’t really). NOW, it’s just not safe. And I bet the traditional blowing out of candles will continue to be shunned even after the pandemic ends. We’ve just been made aware of what we are blowing onto a cake! YUCK! These containers should be in every store – I think they’ll be a big hit (if they’re not horribly expensive, that is).

OOPS! Spoke too soon. Turns out this is made of a flimsy, one-time-use matierial. WAY too expensive and wasteful. Make it out of a solid acrylic or plexiglass (or something biodegradable) – something sturdy that can be washed and reused!
