NO CAKE,

NO ENTRY

for the love of cake

CAKE PICNIC™ was born out of a simple desire to eat a lot of cake. And be surrounded by friends. In my earliest daydreams of this event, it was a small and intimate picnic of maybe 15 new friends forming a circle at Golden Gate Park. Once we’ve formed our circle, we would take turns introducing ourselves and what cake we brought to the picnic. I had no idea this would draw such a crowd and that everyone would share my dream so passionately. For the love of cake, we must.

CAKE PICNIC is a gathering for the love of cake. It celebrates cake in all of its forms — chiffon cakes, upside down cakes, Princess cakes, Russian honey cakes, meringue cakes, jello cakes, trifles, multi-tiered cakes, sponge cakes, butter cakes, and more. CAKE PICNIC brings communities and friends together for the sole purpose of breaking cake and enjoying the following butter and sugar highs. To be surrounded by as many cakes as there are humans is definitely something special, right? It is a moment in time where we come together for something truly sweet. It is a feast for the ages and you just have to be there.

CAKE PICNIC TOUR

2026 TOUR

For updates on future tour stops and events, please subscribe to the newsletter and follow on Instagram.

I’m also dreaming of other tour stops and working behind-the-scenes to see if it would be possible to add them to the official tour stops. On my short list are: Vancouver, Hawaii, Manila, Philadelphia, DC, Florida, and Melbourne. If you are located in any of these cities and would like to help make it a reality, please let me know here.

Generally, if I feel like there is a big cake community, no other similar event happening in the area, there’s an epic and iconic venue, it’s a great candidate for a CAKE PICNIC tour stop.

If you are located anywhere in the world and want CAKE PICNIC to come, let me know here.
