The Great Onesie Adventure
This is the grandaddy of all hockey cakes. Back in 2016, Reddit user /u/TheGreatOnesieAdventure bought an entire onesie and decided to make a cake to celebrate Halloween. What a trooper!
The idea took shape after he bought a black onesie with the words “Open Season” on the front in an attempt to capture the essence of Halloween. While he could have simply used a text-based cake, he instead went for a design with which he could show off his Redditgift certificate. The logo on the shirt turned out to be the perfect fit for the decoration.
What makes this cake so unique is that it brings together all of the things that fans of a certain age might like: The onesie, the hockey, and the opportunity to decorate the cake of your dreams.

The Stanley Cup Champions Cake
Cupcakes. We all know what they are. Everyone has had one at some point in their lives. Most people think of cupcakes when it comes to celebrating sports championships, especially the coveted Stanley Cup. The Detroit Red Wings have won the cup four times in their history, so there is plenty of reason to celebrate.
The Cup champions cake is made up of a red velvet cake, with cream cheese frosting, and strawberries. Each slice is individually wrapped in cellophane, tied with a red ribbon, and shipped in a decorative box.
This cake is another example of how you can combine all of the things that fans of a certain age might like: The Red Wings, the hockey, and the opportunity to decorate the cake of your dreams. It is a memorable cake for Red Wings fans, and it is also a great decoration for your next birthday party.
The Maple Leafs’ First Stanley Cup Cake
The Toronto Maple Leafs were one of the first professional sports teams to integrate the practice of putting their logo on their sports equipment. Their first championship was won in 1919, and they have been successful ever since. It is only natural that they would want to celebrate their first ever Stanley Cup with a cake.
This cake was designed by a Toronto fan named Andrew Price. He wanted to capture the essence of the season in a simple yet elegant design. What makes this cake so unique is the font that he used to write “Maple Leafs First Stanley Cup” on top of the cake. While other teams have used cursive writing for their scoreboards and other pieces of sports equipment, this is the first time that we have seen hockey writing presented like this.
This is another case of celebrating a sports team with items that fans of a certain age might like. The logo on the shirt, the cake, and even the packaging are all designed to look like a piece of old-school hockey gear. People in the know will love this unique take on an otherwise simple cake.

This cake was designed by Cake Lab, and while it is a fairly simple design, it is a testament to the talent of the bakery that they were able to pull off something this beautiful.

The whole cake is covered in chocolate, and we are sure that no one will miss the opportunity to eat their favorite hockey team’s 40th anniversary cake.
For fans of the Habs, this cake will be the ultimate moment. Not only is it a great opportunity to celebrate their successful championship run, but it is also the chance to indulge in some of their favorite fruits and baking styles. It is not often that a cake gets to celebrate two important events in one.
The Edmonton Oilers’ 50th Anniversary Cake
The Edmonton Oilers were founded in 1968 and have been incredibly successful ever since, qualifying for the playoffs in eight of their first nine years. They are also the only team in NHL history to have never been in last place. It is only natural that they would want to celebrate their 50th anniversary with a cake.
This cake was designed by a Toronto fan named Chris Plonski. He wanted to combine his two favorite things: the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Edmonton Oilers. While both teams share a bond for being part of the Ontario hockey scene, they are opponents on the ice. This is the first time that they have shared a cake and we are sure that it will not be the last.
