Sticky Date Cake

Sticky Date Cake, or Sticky Date Pudding, is a rich and comforting dessert with deep caramel-like flavors from sweet, tender dates. Baked until perfectly moist and drizzled with a luscious butterscotch toffee sauce, every bite is warm, sticky, and absolutely irresistible. Serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence!

Sticky Date Cake, or also referred to as Sticky Toffee Pudding or Sticky Date Pudding, is one of those desserts that feels extra special but is surprisingly easy to make. I love how the dates melt into the batter, creating a naturally rich and caramelized sweetness that pairs perfectly with the warm, buttery toffee sauce. It’s a go-to dessert when I want something cozy and indulgent, especially in the cooler months or for a dinner party treat that never fails to impress!

One of the best things about this cake is how simple it is to prepare—no complicated techniques, just a handful of basic ingredients that come together deliciously. The batter is easy to mix, and the dates help keep the cake really moist. Plus, it’s perfect for making ahead! You can bake the cake in advance and just warm it up with the sauce when you’re ready to serve. A scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream takes it over the top. No matter the occasion, this dessert is always a winner!
