Cardi B is sparing no expense to celebrate her daughter!
The rapper, 33, celebrated her daughter Kulture's 8th birthday this past weekend in Orlando, sharing the festivities in a post on Tuesday, July 14 — and at the center of the Care Bear-themed party was a massive cake, per a release shared with PEOPLE.
The 3.5-foot-tall, four-tiered custom cake was covered in rainbow colors, along with designs including over 700 sugar flowers, white fondant clouds, swirling rainbows, yellow stars and glitter.
The cake was topped with a pink number eight, and seven Care Bear statues stood in front of the cake, each holding a letter to spell out "Kulture."
The base of the dessert was made of rainbow cake layers that were filled with a "sprinkle explosion," per the release.
According to the release, the cake was designed, baked and sculpted by Tampa, Fla.-based cake artist Kristina Lavallee (who goes by The Cake Girl), who has created desserts for Cardi B throughout the last two years. The release said that the massive cake took Lavallee 28 hours to make.
"It was an honor to be trusted with such a special occasion again this year," Lavallee said in a statement. "I always enjoy working with Cardi to bring her dreams to reality. I know how special her kids are to her, and that is something I take very seriously."
The 'Am I the Drama' rapper shared a behind-the-scenes look into the festivities on her Instagram.
In the carousel of photos and videos, Kulture poses on a private jet in a baby blue dress covered in flowers with matching gloves. She sat on the jet with another Care Bear-themed cake, this one featuring rainbows, animated star details and a purple Care Bear on top.
"Happy birthday to my sweet beautiful first born @kulturekiari …just the most kind hearted girl in the world???????????? ..My real life bestie," Cardi B wrote in the caption of her post. "Shout out to @universalorlando A TIME WAS HAD !! Ooo and of course @thecakegirl for the amazing cakes ??????????????????????????."
One video in the post showed Cardi B and Kulture gathered with family and friends around the cake singing happy birthday.
After the group sings, Cardi lifts her smiling daughter, announcing, "You're 8!" and telling her to blow out her candles.
The rapper shares Kulture with estranged husband Offset. She also shares son Wave Set, 4, and daughter Blossom Belle, 22 months, with the rapper. Cardi B shares an 8-month-old son with NFL player Stefon Diggs as well.
The "Be Careful" rapper told E! News in May that her eldest daughter has a "very vibrant" sense of style.
"She loves colorful things, like she loves graphic things. She likes rainbows. She likes flowers," she said of Kulture. "She's a very vibrant, vibrant girl. She likes to dress like very pretty, very girly. She's like a girly girl."
Cardi B shared insight into how she values her daughter's education earlier this year. She told Allure in a cover story interview published March 24 that Kulture went along with her to some shows in her first tour, but her education comes first.
"Kulture's in school, and her school don't play that s---," Cardi B told the outlet.
The "Bongos" artist also shared in an appearance on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast in October 2025 that she wants to raise her children to be "better than me."
"I want you to be — not perfect because you cannot make your kids perfect and you don't want you to put pressure on your kids [to be] perfect — but I want you to be a 100 times better version than me, and I'm gonna [instill] that in you," she said. "And you're gonna be mad and you're gonna be crying, but you're gonna appreciate that one day because I wish the things that that I put on my kids that somebody put in me when I was younger."
