A couple years ago I wanted an ice cream cake because I was feeling nostalgic for how exciting it was when someone brought it in to school as their birthday treat in 2nd grade. I got one and was so disappointed because as it turns out it didn’t taste nearly as good as o remembered.
So I voted cake because you clearly like that even thought I don’t don’t.
For years I asked for Pie for my b-day and H thought it was weird so he would get me cake even thought I don’t like it and wouldn’t eat it. We have reached a compromise (even though it’s my damn birthday and I should just get what I want!) so now I get brownies and he put peanut butter frosting on top and it’s literally the best thing ever.
I was already going to pick ice cream cake, but your favorite cake is not mine. It’s good, but I’m not going out of my way to order white or marble cake.

Best birthday ever I won an ice cream cake in the bday drawing on the radio and 2 days later my parents won one for the wedding anniversary drawing. Our freezer was full of cake and we got to eat a piece a day for a couple weeks. Can't do that with a regular cake, suck it regular cake!

Honestly, whatever you want to do is good, just here to say your 3rd option made me snort/laugh coffee all over my desk. I definitely needed that laugh today!!!
I say ice cream cake. Part of the fun of a birthday is doing something out of the ordinary. And December isn’t classic ice cream season.
( around here (ie in my house), the December birthday dessert is the s’mores torte from a local bakery - graham cracker crust, flourless chocolate cake, covered in toasted thick marshmallowy meringue).
My birthday is the 26th and I used to do ice cream cakes but now we tend to go out to eat so we all split one of those hot cake, fudge/ice cream desserts. they're so good and I don't need any additional desserts around after Christmas.
My vote is always ice cream cake. I like all non chocolate cakes but I can never convince anyone to get my ice cream cake for my birthday so I always want more.
We always serve ice cream with birthday cake so my vote is regular cake and serve ice cream on the side. Benefit is that you can pick the ice cream brand/flavor you like.

I was going to post this. I love white cake, white frosting and vanilla ice cream on the side. Yum! David likes chocolate on chocolate on chocolate, lol.
