Funky Pigeon Bake Off Competition

Last updated: December 9th, 2025 Published on: October 31, 2019

We set our team at Funky Pigeon HQ the challenge to re-create our fabulous pigeon cake that one of our staff members created a while ago, wow – they did not let us down! We’re excited to share the results of our special bake-off with you!

Rules of the Competition

All funky techniques and trickery were allowed – from non-edible objects to help from friends, partners, or professional bakers. There was no specific brief; it just had to be edible!

As a result, we had some interesting entrants, including a classic Victoria sponge, a chocolate triple-layer cake, cupcakes which looked more like ghosts, and more!

What Happened?

Seven brave pigeon bakers rose to the challenge, which resulted in a bunch of creative and/or hilarious-looking cakes. All lined up upstairs on our design studio’s table, everyone was invited to have a look at them and vote for their favourite.

Who Won?

After all the votes were counted, we named our best baker, who received over 40 votes! A sweeping, indisputable victory for our talented baker and Gifting Assistant, Jenny Smart. Jenny won with her beautiful chocolate and orange, triple-layered sponge cake! A BIG congrats to you, Jenny!
