My step dad's birthday is coming up and he passed away last year but him and my 3yo were super close. Is it wrong to still celebrate his birthday and have a cake and everything else?

Celebrate his birthday. It’s a great time to talk about the good memories and reminisce.
Not at all. Sounds like the beginning of a beautiful tradition ❤️
I think it's nice to have cake and remember him but what do you mean about everything else? I would just keep it low key x
We lost our baby girl so every year we get the close family together and go to dinner and have a cake. We also choose a little ornament for the cemetry almost like a birthday present. would definitely do it to with the 3 year old. It might be nice to get them to help decorate a cake light a candle, let the 3 year old blow it out and you share some things special that you could remind him about your step dad. Sadly as a 3 year old the memories will fade but I really think you sharing those stories with you 3 year old will keep their memory alive and make them feel connected for years to come.
