Collection: Bento boxes

What is a bento cake?

A bento cake (also called a lunchbox cake) is a small, round cake that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand. These adorable mini cakes originate from South Korea and are often packaged in a compact, take-away-style box , similar to a hamburger box. Perfect as a personal gift, for birthdays, picnics, or sharing.

Due to their size and striking buttercream decoration, bento cakes are extremely popular on social media such as Instagram, Pinterest and TikTok.
