Los Angeles CAKE PICNIC is back on June 6 to celebrate cake, friends, and the CAKE PICNIC cookbook! After 2 years on the tour and seeing almost 13,000 cakes in real life, I am so excited to share these recipes with you that are inspired from the best bites I’ve had while on tour. In the book, I continue to share my love letter to all things cake and all of its forms.
I love each and every tour stop in LA because the cakes from LA bakers are some of the best I’ve ever had. So inspired by the abundant California produce, bold and daring in flavors, and absolutely so creative with the decorations and style. No one does cake like those from LA! Also, the vibes are always just so good with you all. It’s always such a good time; we had to run it back!
Please note that tickets are limited. If you aren’t able to join this Spring 2026 tour stop, don’t worry, I am also planning a Fall 2026 version for us in LA! I’m very happy to create moments for us to gather for cake.
CAKE PICNIC is a gathering for the love of cake. It celebrates cake in all of its forms. It brings communities and friends together for the sole purpose of breaking cake and enjoying the following butter and sugar highs. To be surrounded by as many cakes as there are humans is definitely something special, right? It is a moment in time where we come together for something truly sweet. Every attendee brings a whole cake. It is a feast for the ages and you just have to be there.
When: June 6, 2026 with two sessions
Morning session: 10-12PM
Afternoon session: 2-4PM
Where: Park in Santa Monica (exact location will be sent to ticket holders)
Tickets: Tickets will become available below on Friday, May 1st at 7PM LA time. CAKE PICNIC CLUB membership is now available for both sessions and includes a ticket to the event. Please make sure to decide ahead of time which session you’d like to attend. Tickets are not transferable between sessions (i.e. you can’t buy a morning session ticket and switch to attend the afternoon session).
Note that due to technical limitations on this website, tickets won’t be held in reserve for you in your cart. You may reach the end of check out to find that no tickets are left available because they’ve sold out. Historically, tickets have sold out under 30 seconds. I’m working to find a fix for this. Thanks for your patience and understanding!
