THE RECORD

identity

Andy Li photographed this presentation in December 2025. Its appearance differs from the low chocolate-covered Daim wedge. [1]

THE RECORD

history

The cake was part of IKEA and Shelter's 2025 Cake that Cares campaign. A1 Retail's November 14 report says the limited edition went on sale from November 3 in England, Wales and Scotland, while stocks lasted. Shelter's own post confirms the pledge of £1 from each slice toward its emergency helpline. [3] [4]

A December 3, 2025 photograph documents a serving at Brighton. The cake later appears in the January to March 2026 three-deli promotion. These dated records establish local history without supplying an exact last-sale date. [1] [2]

THE RECORD

nutrition

A primary nutrition panel for this served UK cake has not yet been verified. Calories, serving weight and the full allergen list therefore remain unknown here. Neither a photograph nor another cake's label can supply those missing measurements. [1]

No serving-specific nutrition verified.

THE RECORD

prices

The ordinary slice amount in the historical promotion table agrees with the November 2025 launch report. The later £3 offer required cake and a hot drink together on weekday afternoons; it was a conditional bundle, not a lower standalone cake price. [3] [2]

THE RECORD

distinctions

The campaign used sticky toffee cake in England, Wales and Scotland. A1 Retail reports a different dessert, salted caramel gateau, in Northern Ireland and Ireland. Those should remain separate foods even though they were associated with the same campaign. [3]
