Look away now vegetarians, the latest first birthday photoshoot trend is all about babies chowing down on a big, juicy steak. And we’re here for it!

Move over cake smashes, parents are now going a far meatier route when it comes to mark their little one’s first trip around the sun.

Watch on TikTok

While a cake smash photo session is all about giving bub a sweet treat to get messy with and create memories to mark their first birthday, steak smash shoots are all about unleashing their inner caveman and woman.

Super popular in the US (particularly for families who are beef producers), steak smash photoshoots usually have a bit of a cowboy or girl theme, or a farmyard, country feel.

And whether it’s a t-bone or eye fillet, the babies seem to LOVE gnawing on a big piece of steak to celebrate their first birthdays.

 What do you think of steak smashes? Would you do one with your baby? Let us know in the comments below.

  • Really? I’m a meat eater but I can’t see the fun or cuteness in this.

  • Well I guess it’s more healthy than the cake smash ( I hate those) but it wouldn’t be something I would do

  • Not something I would ever choose.

  • This is so bizarre ! It amazes me how these baby trends start! I would love to keep first birthday simple and no gimmicky things just family, intimate and short full of all the things baby loves!

  • No not for me. I didn’t even do a cake smash. Don’t see the point.

  • Honestly, what will they think of next?!
    I think people take things too far sometimes with trying to get creative.
