    Do you know who is the smallest bird on this planet? Yes, it is Hummingbird and most of the people in Jamaica refer to Hummingbird as “Doctors Bird” and today I will share Dr. Bird Cake Recipe with you people over here.

    When I was a kid, I went to a bird’s zoo with my grandparents and when my grandmother told me that the hummingbird is the smallest bird on this planet. It was looking so cute that I started crying over there because I wanted to have that bird.

    After my grandmother realized that I liked the hummingbird so much, she made Dr. Bird Cake for me and she told me that in Jamaica people call hummingbird cake. So I ate that cake and found it so delicious.

    If I talk about today, I miss my grandmother. One day, I was searching regarding this cake on the internet and I got to know why we call this cake as Dr. Bird Cake. Dr. Bird Cake was invented in Jamaica and the national bird of Jamaica is the Humming Bird.

    Today, I was making Dr. Bird Cake for my kids and I thought to share Dr. Bird Cake Recipe with you people. If you love cakes, then you should definitely check out the other cake recipes that I’ve handpicked just for you.

    1. Fiesta Cake– Fiesta cake is a cake made with fiesta or fruit cocktail mixed fruits with raisin and chopped cashew nuts.  A cake that simply has fruit in it as an ingredient can also be colloquially called a fiesta cake.

    2. Red Velvet Cupcakes– These moist and buttery cupcakes can stand out from the rest. The cloud of tangy frosting on top is my favourite part. This cake can bring a smile to your face and make your mouth watery.

    3. Bunny Butt Cake– This coconut flavoured cake is something very unusual by look but will be loved by your kids. Anyone can easily make it at their home by following the recipe that I’ve mentioned.

    4. Carrot Cake– If you are looking for a classic, non-chocolate, soft textured cake, then this carrot cake is the perfect cake for you. The spice flavor, super moist crumb and velvety cream cheese frosting of this cake are some you can’t resist.
