All parties involved — from customer service, bakers to delivery staff are connected to Eat Cake Today’s system on their smartphone to facilitate and streamline the A-Z cake order process to ensure customers receive their cakes satisfied, in at timely manner.
Though internet / technology is the business conduit, ultimately, it is a team of human force at work who aims to deliver customers their favourite cakes day in and day out with passion and love. “This spirit of love and connection mirrors our passion to help create special moments or help celebrate festivities for friends, families, workmates.

The best thing is there is always the cake for you no matter how personal or unique it is. Eat Cake Today hosts more than 40 bakers, with notable names like Baker’s Art, Cat & The Fiddle, Ennoble, Huckleberry, Little Tee Cakes, Tedboy, and etc. The panel of bakers were selected based on recommendations from market surveys.
There are 400 cakes available such as biscuits, brownies, bundts, cheesecakes, cookies, cupcakes, eggless cakes, fondant buttercream beauties, gluten-free, loafs, mille crepe, pavlova, pies, tarts, vegan dairy free, customized cake, pastries, jelly cakes, designer cakes and etc. Our best-sellers include Chocolate Salted Caramel, Gula Melaka Banana, Crunchy Nutella and Rainbow Ruffle. We also carry trending cakes such as Mirror Glaze, Drip Cake, Edible Art Cake, Gargeran Biscuit Cake and Burnt Cheesecake.
“Besides providing the convenience of cake purchase & deliveries direct from bakers to customers, creating a differentiation is also very crucial. Hence each baker is asked to bring on board their specialties to prevent duplicate cake flavours. “After two months, a check is conducted to decide if these flavours are selling or not and whether they need to be replaced with other items. To us, quality and customer’s satisfaction are the most important,” explained Ang.
While the platform started more from the customer’s perspective but as it delved further, it is discovered that the bakers also appreciate some sort of platform to showcase their talents and unique cakes and grow their business. Also, the portal releases bakers from administrative woes like dealing with customers and delivering the cakes.
The platform also includes an ingredients list for all the items carried, since there could be those suffering from allergies. They also have Baked KL on board who makes vegan and gluten-free cakes. With year-end festive seasons coming up, Eat Cake Today is gearing up with an array of celebration cakes, cupcakes, brownies, fruit cakes, cookies and even a gingerbread house.
