How can I make a car-themed cake at home for a birthday?
You could:
- Bake a rectangular sponge and cut it into the shape of a car.
- Cover the sponge with coloured buttercream or fondant to create the body.
- Use biscuits or lollies as wheels and add simple piping for details.
While this DIY method is fun, it can be tricky to get the shape and finish right. A car cake from the Cupcake Factory gives you a polished, professional result that looks party-ready without the stress of making and decorating an entire kids birthday cake yourself.
What kind of cake makes a themed party more exciting?
The Car Cake is designed to be the highlight of a celebration. With its buttercream finish and sculpted car shape, it brings energy and fun to any party.
Why are shaped cakes a growing trend for birthdays?
The Car Cake shows how 3D and novelty cakes are becoming popular because they double as decoration and dessert. It creates a personalised feel that a plain round cake can’t match.
Who is a vehicle-shaped cake most suited for?
The Car Cake is perfect for kids who love toy cars, racing themes, or transport parties. It also works for adults who are car enthusiasts, making it a versatile choice across ages.

- Chocolate
- Half Chocolate / Half Vanilla
This variety makes it easy to pick a flavour that everyone will enjoy. The customisable colours is also sure to impress your guests.
How much notice should I give when ordering?
The Car Cake requires 48 hours’ notice. This gives time for the team to bake and customise the design so it’s fresh and ready for your event.
What is the best way to keep a shaped cake fresh before the party?
The Car Cake should be stored in a cool, dry place. It’s best eaten on the day of the celebration, but it will stay fresh for 2–3 days when properly stored.
