History of Aussie Birthdays

Let's take a look at the ripper history of birthdays Down Under. Picture this: back in the day, our convict ancestors didn't have fancy cakes or blow-out bashes. Nah mate, they marked their birthdays with a cold one and a cheeky yarn around the campfire. As time went on, we Aussies upped our game. Enter the 20th century, and suddenly, we're all about party pies, fairy bread, and pavlovas. Chuck in a backyard barbie and a couple tinnies, and you've got yourself a classic Aussie shindig!

Now, what's a birthday without a bit of friendly ribbing? In true Aussie spirit, we never let our mates celebrate without a bit of banter. And banter is EXACTLY what we've loaded into each & every design we put on our awesome gifts.

These cards have got everything. Whether it's Big Barry's huge member, Rick Astley singing for hours on end, a classic reference from Film & TV, or a surprise popping out from the card; you'll find the perfect card for whoever's Birthday is coming up. Save on shipping by purchasing for a few people, plan ahead and do the country proud.

Why buy Gifts from Spicy Baboon?

We saw a gap in the market for hilarious & unique designs to get people talking and to get the party started. We don't sell ordinary crap, which is pretty much our whole philosophy. That’s where our crack squad of talented baboons come in. They create all of our designs right here at our Brisbane HQ, blending memes, pop culture, and a wicked sense of humour to bring you the best Birthday Gifts with just the right amount of sass.

But since you found your way here all on your own (well done, mate), you probably already knew that didn’t you? So why else should you get your Birthday Gifts from us?

1. We use high quality materials for all our products

We want to make sure that your gifts last for as long as possible, so we’re only using the good stuff.

Our clothing is 100% combed cotton, secured with double needle hems and pre-shrunk. It also comes in a great range of sizes, also be sure to check out our Kid's Range - deck out the little ones in selected matching designs.

Our cards are printed on high-grade paper, using quality ink, meaning your recipient will be able to display them proudly on their desk/mantlepiece/work bench/in the car/the bathroom… we don’t know who you're buying for, you do. They can put them wherever they'd like, we don't judge.

Our mugs are dishwasher and microwave safe, printed onto porcelain with quality inks. Perfect for standing outside with a cup of coffee, and sipping in style. It's the little things, y'know?

We’d go on, but you get the idea – our products are pretty bloody ripper!

2. Our range is huge

From cards to t-shirts, aprons to stubby holders, and stickers to bar mats, we’ve got the most unique gifts for birthday celebrations. Many of our designs can be slapped onto a multitude of gifts, and we can even personalise some of them too, just so your recipient doesn’t forget who absolutely NAILED the gifts this year.

3. We offer excellent value for money

Everyone loves a good deal, and the Spicy Baboon team have made sure our gifts are no exception. We’ve worked our big red baboon butts off to build great relationships with our suppliers. That means we get good prices and THAT means YOU get good prices too. It’s just good business, mate.
