Happiness is a piece of cake!

For all those with a sweet tooth out there you’ll be happy to know that Expo City Dubai has just unveiled ‘The Festival of Cake’ (yes you heard that right).

This delectably sweet event is set to take the UAE by storm and is organised in collaboration with TGP International.

The festival will run from 28 November to 2 December, offering visitors an exceptional array of culinary experiences centred around sweets and pastries from across the world.

Taking place at Expo City Dubai, this extraordinary five-day, multi-sensory festival promises a unique experience dedicated to the joy of baking, blending fun, education, and incredible handcrafted sweet treats.

Bringing together emerging bakers, celebrity chefs, families, and cake lovers, this world-class festival will feature an exciting line-up of bake-offs, dining experiences, celebrity chef appearances, baking and cake-themed activities, a giant sprinkles pool, entertainment, and competitions.

A highlight of the event is the Festival of Cake Bake-Off; a chance for everyone to showcase their baking talents on a global stage.

With renowned names already confirmed, including Canadian baking sensation and TV host Anna Olson; Claire Clark MBE, a master pâtissier recognised as one of the world’s top pastry chefs; Kimberly Lin, formerly of Claridge’s and Dominique Ansel Bakery; and Markus Bohr of Harrods, the event is set to be the region’s largest pastry and confectionery celebration.
