How should I store a Pinata cake?

We believe cakes taste best when they arrive, but if needed, you can freeze our Pinata cake for up to six months. Just then defrost for around 10 hours before serving and ensure the cake is up to room temperature before eating.

Can I store a Pinata cake in the fridge?

Storing a cake in the fridge can dry out the cake and give it a dry texture. We would recommend storing in an air-tight container at room temperature. Our cakes will last from around 7 - 10 days from dispatch.

Do you sell birthday cakes?

Our cakes, especially our Pinata cake, are perfect for birthdays, and all occasions! Crack open the cake and watch multicoloured chocolate beans pour out, like a Pinata. Everyone is sure to love this unique twist on a birthday cake.

Storage & Care

GET THAT SWEET SPOT

Buttercream loves a gentle warm-up, and brownies need a little patience to reach their soft, gooey magic. Our bakes have been chilling in transit and need time to be their best so if your sponge is a little dry give it some more time.

ROOM TEMP, BEST TEMP

Let your bake rest in their packaging for up to 12 hours or when it reaches room temperature. It will then be at its full, fluffy glory. Cake is always at its best when it’s cosy, not chilly.

KEEP IT FRESH

Pop leftovers in an airtight container and store somewhere cool and dry... no fridge chills or sunbathing, please! Keeping them at room temperature keeps your bakes soft, gooey, and full of joy.

FREEZE FOR FUTURE JOY

Celebration postponed? Wrap your cake carefully and freeze for up to six months. When you’re ready, thaw at room temperature to bring back that soft, fresh-baked magic you love.

The surprise sweeties in the middle made her day 😁 Absolutely delicious cake. The children also enjoyed the sweets inside Stuffed full of smarties made it a very special cake for a 92 year olds party. Squeals of delight as the birthday boy (6) cut into the cake and the brightly coloured little smarties gushed out. Enough to add liberally to all the cake boxes, along with the loose chocolate flakes. Highly recommend! My sister loved this as it was a novelty cake and went down a treat! Cake was for adult but her children all liked the idea of a family birthday cake . Family loved the cake. Beautifully packed. My sister dropped the parcel on arrival and there was no damage at all My son was over the moon with his surprise birthday cake. He said it was absolutely delicious. The kids absolutely loved it! It was a great hit to see all the smarties coming off when cutting the cake. The cake taste good althought some may find a bit sweet. Very tasty cake, the pinata effect was great Very tasty moist sponge. The words we got back was ‘that was the best chocolate cake I ever tasted’ Fantastic cake! Tasty, fresh and looked great! I was worried about it being delivered damaged but all was fine. My 6 year old was very happy 😊 The mini smarties in the middle were a great surprise for him! Such a delicious and tasty cake. We have all enjoyed eating it. Especially loved the icing and tiny smartie like sweets inside cake. My friend was quite happy with candy surprise. It was a total hit with her and her family Ordered this cake for husband’s birthday. Went down very well with all our guests and good surprise with the sweeties.
