Mothers’ Day was first celebrated long ago in the 1600’s in England. All servants would be given a holiday every “Mothering Sunday” and encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers with a Mothering Cake in tow.

On that day, mothers are also showered with thirty tokens of appreciation from their families or given various gifts. In France, the family gathers for a large meal where at the end of the celebration, the mothers in the family receive a cake resembling a bouquet of flowers.
