International Pizza Cake Day 2023: Date, History, Facts, Activities

International Pizza Cake Day is celebrated annually on the third Thursday in April and falls on April 20 this year. Some people probably question, is pizza cake a cake that looks like a pizza? Or is it a pizza in the form of a cake? Well, it can be both. But, the one we’re here for today is the latter. To celebrate, will you create a pizza cake from scratch or just order some pizza boxes and then stack them up to form a cake? The day’s for you to celebrate with whatever pizza cake you see fit — in your belly.

The background of International Pizza Cake Day

International Pizza Cake Day is celebrated annually on the third Thursday to have fun with pizza cake. Some say that pizza cake was first created many years ago by Chef François Gundermeaux. But, it seemed to be a confection that looked like a pizza, not a pizza. Meanwhile, the pizza cake here was devised in 2014 by Boston Pizza, a Canadian-based pizza chain. The pizza cake was part of a Boston Pizza promotion dubbed Pizza Game Changers, featuring numerous “outlandish” pizza-related products.

The pizza cake recipe became the promotion’s most popular, with 15,000 votes by April 21, 2014. Boston Pizza advertised it as “great for birthdays, bar mitzvahs, weddings, and even lonely nights watching infomercials.” Later in April, they posted a pizza cake recipe on “So Good Blog” and was described as “heavenly” by a Reddit user who attempted it. In September, Pillsbury Company posted a pizza cake recipe by Shawn Syphus and it went viral — making them sometimes erroneously attributed as the creator of the recipe.

The Boston Pizza’s pizza cake is six-layered, and the Daily Mirror assigned it a total of 5,000 calories. There were varying reviews about the recipe. Some said it’s more complicated than it seemed, the crispiness in the crust was lacking, and it’s unhealthier than regular pizza. While others stated it was worth recommending. In the end, a review is just a review, right? You’ll never know unless you attempt it (and make it) from the many recipes of recipes to choose from online. So, are you going to create the pizza cake from scratch?

Tell your acquaintances

Can you complete the pizza cake all by yourself? Well, that’s impressive! If you are unable to attend, you may wish to inform your acquaintances and invite them over to celebrate with you. And, since your companions are present, you’ll likely need another pizza cake by the end.
