identity
Wheat, eggs, butter, sour cream, buttermilk and botanical colors appear in IKEA’s U.S. recipe. [1]
history
The cake has appeared in IKEA’s U.S. Pride campaigns. The company’s FY24 report attributes a $100,000 donation to True Colors to June 2024 cake sales. Rainbow Railroad was the named beneficiary in 2025. [2] [3]
The 2025 campaign ran from May 1 through July 31, with $1 per slice donated subject to a $50,000 minimum and $150,000 maximum. Those terms belong to that campaign, not every subsequent slice. [3]
nutrition
The nutrition table covers the labeled slice, with egg, milk and wheat listed as allergens. Its undated portion is not a verified match to the earlier campaign slice. [1] [3]
