Gender Reveal Cake

Gender Reveal Cake — Share Your Happy News in the Sweetest Way

The cake that tells everyone at once. Our Gender Reveal Cake looks beautiful from the outside and keeps its secret until the very first slice — a hidden coloured sponge inside, blue or pink, revealed the moment the cake is cut. Choose your colour, gather your people, and let the cake do the announcing. Made fresh to order by our award-winning Melbourne team.

About This Cake

Finished in smooth buttercream, this cake gives nothing away from the outside — the reveal is entirely inside, where a blue or pink buttercream waits to share your news. It's a simple, joyful way to celebrate the moment with family and friends, and it tastes every bit as good as the occasion deserves. Add one of our acrylic toppers to finish it beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the gender reveal work?

You select either blue or pink at checkout, and we bake that colour into the sponge inside the cake. From the outside the cake gives nothing away — the colour is only revealed when the cake is cut. If you'd like to keep it a surprise for yourself too, arrange for someone else to place the order with your reveal colour.

Can I keep the reveal a surprise from myself?

Yes — many customers have a friend or family member place the order so the colour is a surprise to the parents-to-be as well. Just let us know.

What topper options are available?

You can add a personalised custom acrylic topper, or choose a ready-made topper from our standard acrylics range. Select your preference at checkout.

How many people does this cake serve?

The standard triple-layer cake serves approximately 20 people. You can add more layers at checkout for larger gatherings.

Can I choose any cake flavour?

How far ahead do I need to order?
