Q: How long do Happy Cakes last for?

A: Our Happy Cakes are hand-made, and can last for well over a month when kept in a cool, dry place.  They can last even longer if frozen or refrigerated.  The cake holds moisture well at lower temperatures and tastes great chilled. Once the packaging is opened, we suggest wrapping the remaining cake with plastic wrap and storing in the refrigerator. All cakes come with a ‘Best Before’  date.

Q: Is a Happy Cake a Fruit Cake?

A: This is a great question that food critics and experts have debated and pondered over for more than fifty years.   

The Happy Cake has a strong shelf life like a traditional fruit cake, and it is a dense cake with candied fruit and nuts. However the Happy Cake lacks the super sweet punch of fruit cake and it is so much more moist than fruit cake! Some say it is the Hawaiian version of a fruit cake.
