Unicorn Cake in Lahore: Designs, Sizes and Prices
Short answer
Unicorn cakes in Lahore cost Rs 3,500–5,000 for a 2 lb printed design, Rs 5,000–8,000 for the classic unicorn face with a gold horn and piped mane, Rs 8,000–12,000 for a tall 3–4 lb version, and Rs 12,000–18,000 for a sculpted standing unicorn. Order one to two days ahead for printed designs, three to four for the face cake, and five to seven for sculpted.
The unicorn cake is one of the most requested girls' birthday cakes in Lahore, and nearly every one people picture is the same design: a white cake with closed eyes, a gold horn, pastel ears and a mane of piped rosettes. That design is popular for good reason, since it photographs well and works at any size, but it is one of four formats.
The four formats
- Printed: an edible image on a buttercream cake, the quickest and cheapest
- Unicorn face: gold fondant horn, ears and eyelashes on a white cake with a rosette mane, the classic
- Tall face cake: the same design on a double-height 3–4 lb cake for a bigger party
- Sculpted: a standing or lying unicorn carved from cake, the most striking and the most work

The rainbow inside
Many unicorn cakes have rainbow layers inside, which is the moment children react to when it is cut. The colours come from food colouring. If you would rather avoid it for a young child, ask for plain sponge with a coloured filling instead; the outside looks identical.
Age, heat and the mane
Unicorn cakes suit roughly ages three to eight. The rosette mane is buttercream and softens in heat, so for an outdoor summer party keep the cake in air conditioning until the candles, or ask for a fondant mane. The horn and ears are fondant painted with edible gold and are safe to eat, though most children keep the horn.
Lead time
One to two days for a printed design, three to four for the unicorn face, and five to seven for a sculpted unicorn. Same-day is possible for printed designs ordered before 12 PM.
