As Father’s Day approaches, conversations about modern fatherhood continue to evolve, including the popular online discussion around “Girl Dad” and “Boy Dad.”
The trend highlights the different ways fathers connect with their children. Some are known for attending dance recitals and tea parties, while others spend weekends playing basketball or engaging in rough-and-tumble games. Many navigate both worlds, adapting to the needs and interests of their families.
Drawing on those ideas, Red Ribbon has introduced its Tiramisu Cloud Cake, a coffee-inspired dessert that the company says reflects the different qualities associated with fatherhood.
The cake features layers of coffee, cream cheese and cocoa, each representing a different type of father often recognized in families.
One example is the father described as the “Hatid-Sundo No Matter What” dad — someone who makes sure family members get home safely regardless of the hour. The cream cheese layer is associated with that dependable and comforting role.
Another is the “Game Kahit Pagod” dad, who remains ready to spend time with his children after a long day. The coffee layer is intended to reflect that energy and enthusiasm.
The cocoa layer represents the “Tahimik Pero Present” dad, a father who may not be outspoken but consistently shows up for important moments.
For fathers who embrace multiple roles, the company points to the “Girl Dad and Boy Dad” figure — someone equally comfortable attending glitter-filled activities and joining active play. The complete cake, with its combination of flavors and textures, is meant to symbolize that balance.
As families prepare for Father’s Day celebrations, the product adds another option for those looking to mark the occasion with a shared dessert and a nod to the many forms fatherhood can take.
