One racer the whole party can eat, allergies and all

A Cars party fills a room with kids, and often one cannot have eggs, dairy or nuts. Every cake is 100% plant-based, so egg-free and dairy-free are standard, with nut-free and soy-free recipes also available.

Please note, our cakes are gluten-friendly rather than coeliac-certified, and baked in a kitchen that handles nuts, so they may contain traces.

What parents ask before ordering a Lightning McQueen cake

3D racer or edible-image cake, which should I pick?

The 3D version, with its printed cutout elements, is the milestone showstopper; the edible-image cake puts the character up top faster.

How far ahead should I order, and can you deliver?

It’s always a good idea to order in advance and allow for enough time. We deliver across Melbourne with a 2-day delivery as standard.

Is it suitable for plant-based diets and allergies?

Every cake is 100% plant-based, egg-free and dairy-free, with nut-free and soy-free recipes. It is gluten-friendly, not certified for coeliac disease, so check with us first for a severe allergy. Please note: our cakes are made in a kitchen that handles nuts and may contain traces

Bring the racer to the party

The red racer is the easy part to picture. We make ordering easy too: choose the printed design or the 3D version with cutout elements, and we will have Lightning McQueen ready for the big day.
