Confetti Craze, Cake Creators—and August Birthdays Everywhere!
By 5-hour ENERGY
If you're wondering what’s in the stars for 5-hour ENERGY’s® new Confetti Craze flavor, here’s your sign: more people are born in August than in any other month. It’s a little-known but true birthday boom — August reigns supreme in total birth numbers across the U.S. This fun fact makes Confetti Craze, with its sweet, birthday cake inspired flavor, feel like the ultimate party-in-a-bottle.
Instant Birthday Surprises—Only in NYC
To celebrate the new flavor, 5-Hour Energy hit the streets of New York with an unexpected twist: impromptu birthday parties for passersby! Complete with decorations, costumes, cakes, and yes, Confetti Craze shots, these surprise flash celebrations turned everyday moments into joyous shindigs. The energy was contagious, the smiles were real—and the cake vibe was spot on. See it in action here:(Instagram)
Cake Creators Spotlight: A Confetti Challenge
We teamed up with a number of standout cake-baking creators whose TikTok magic helped us sprinkle even more joy into the launch. Here are just a few:
- @hausplans wowed us with an oversized Confetti Craze Layer Cake—using a cement mixer, forklift and confetti blower on the job site. It must be seen to be appreciated!
