Wholesale Cakes for Cafés: What Sells, How It Works & Why It Matters
If you run a café, you already know this: Cake isn’t just cake. It’s the thing people spot first in the counter. The reason they stay for another coffee.
At Exploding Bakery, we supply wholesale cakes to independent cafés, coffee shops, hotels and retailers who care about what they serve and who want cakes that sell out.
What cakes sell best in cafés?
Our suppliers often want to be able to offer something for the most common dietary needs, therefore our best selling cakes tend to be either gluten free or vegan cakes.
Here's our top 3 best selling cakes on our direct wholesale shop:
- Gizzillionaire Slice (Vegan and Gluten Free)
- Lemon Polenta & Pistachio Cake (Gluten Free)
- Sour Cherry & Pistachio Cake (Gluten Free)
 |
These cakes are easy to care for, look vibrant on your counter, hold well and appeal to a wide range of customers, which means less waste and better margins.
Flexible wholesale cake supply
We deliver cakes every day except Sundays and Mondays. There is no minimum order quantity which means you can scale up or down depending on footfall and seasons.
Wholesale pricing that works for independents
Running an independent café is hard enough without punishing minimums. That’s why we offer:
- 10% discount on orders of 5 wholesale cakes or more
- Free delivery on orders over £100
- Transparent pricing for cafés, hotels and retailers
