Based on product type, the Australia cake market is driven by unpackaged/artisanal forms, as they can be customised according to the consumers dietary needs and specific occasions

The Australian cake market is experiencing growth as artisanal cake makers frequently provide customization options, enabling customers to request specific flavors, designs, and decorations that suit their preferences. This personalized approach boosts customer satisfaction and loyalty, contributing to the Australia cake industry growth. The packaged form of cake has a longer shelf life due to the addition of preservatives and acts as a convenient option due to the reduction in baking time.

In March 2024, The Hallway, an independent advertising agency, collaborated with Sydney's Wholegreen Bakery to challenge gluten-free sceptics with the introduction of a Coeliac Australia-certified cardboard cake.
