Our story
What is CAKE?
CAKE is a Scandinavian brand that is on a rocky road to shape the future of eMobility. From the inception, the aim was clear: develop high-quality performance products that would inspire a shift to a zero-emission society, combining excitement with responsibility.
In 2024 a new owner stepped in with the ambition to carry the legacy of CAKE into the future. The CAKE products that have been showered with over 200+ Innovation and Designs awards, such as Red Dot and IF Design Awards, will continue to inspire and excite.
Light, quiet, and clean—these aren't just adjectives, but a mantra that took shape in January 2018 with the unveiling of our first model, Kalk, and that will be carried onwards and forward.
The CAKE category
The light electric off-road motorbikes category has seen evolution from small builders. These pioneers were assembling hybrids from standard parts from cycling and motorcycling spaces. But CAKE took it further, engineering and manufacturing everything from frame to wheels, to meet the intended level of performance in riding, durability, and overall quality.
The properties of an electric drivetrain mean a number of things:
less weight, more agility, and zero emissions. Imagine snappy, lively rides, opening the realm of motorbiking to anyone, irrespective of physical condition. Being nearly silent adds to the riding experience, enhancing the level of respect for your surroundings—be it fellow hikers, wild animals, or even your neighbors.
Cleanliness has numerous facets. Charging your bike with renewable energy or even solar panels from CAKE, without any pollution or fumes, serves as true evidence of sustainability. Maintenance? Think of it as minimal—a paradigm shift from combustion engines.
What's the purpose?
Inspiring people, contributing to speeding up the journey towards a zero-emission society, combining excitement with responsibility. From the Ösa's versatile utility to Makka's commuting convenience and Bukk's off-road prowess, our diverse range of models epitomizes this purpose.
Our product range
Our range is not just about individual models; it's a comprehensive force designed to reshape the future of mobility. Award-winning innovation meets performance, all wrapped up in our unwavering commitment to respect and sustainability.
This is CAKE. Where excitement and responsibility unite. The future is electric.
Explore with respect®.
