What Is a Cake Picnic?

Born from a simple, and delicious desire—to eat a lot of cake.

This isn’t just a picnic. It’s a celebration of frosting, flavor, friendship, and fun. A chance to show off your baking skills (or your cake-sourcing genius), sip wine with good people, and make sweet, unforgettable memories. This is not a competition, and it’s not a promotional event. No judges, no pressure—just good vibes, great people, and incredible cake.

Snap photos, roll video, and fill the album—because this is a day worth remembering.

At a cake picnic, the dream is simple: as many cakes as there are people. Maybe more.

Come one, come all—friends, foodies, bakers, dreamers. Whether you're traveling from afar or just down the street, gather for a feast of sweetness that only happens occasionally... but stays with you forever.
