Best Cakes for Office Celebrations (That Everyone Will Actually Eat)
Choosing a cake for your office celebration isn’t just about taste. It’s about pleasing everyone. From chocolate lovers to those with dietary preferences, this guide rounds up the best cakes for the workplace.
Whether you’re planning a birthday surprise, project milestone, or team lunch, we’ve got cake ideas that strike the perfect balance between indulgent and inclusive. And yes, they’ll actually get eaten.
Choosing The Right Cake for Your Office
Consider Team Size and Preferences
Opt for large-format cakes like sheet cakes or log cakes for big teams. For smaller offices or intimate gatherings, layered cakes or sampler boxes work well.
Balance Flavours
Go for crowd-pleasers like chocolate, vanilla, or a combination of both. Cakes like the Double Custard Cake or Profiterole Log Cake tend to appeal to a wide range of palates.
Think About Dietary Needs
To accommodate everyone, include at least one gluten-free, vegan, or Halal-friendly option.

Using high-quality, natural ingredients allows local bakeshops to meet dietary needs without resorting to artificial stabilisers or synthetic replacements. Thus making their vegan and gluten-free cakes:
