In Grow a Garden, one of the fun side activities is preparing special food for NPCs. Eloise, one of the main characters, has a birthday event where she can only be given a cake. Many players get confused when trying to feed her early, but the system is tied directly to her birthday. Here’s a complete guide on how to make a cake for Eloise and get ready for her big day.


What You Need to Make a Cake

To start crafting a cake, you’ll need a Cooking Pot. This isn’t given right away but can be unlocked through the Garden Guide achievements. Once you have the pot, you’ll be able to use it for various recipes, including different cake types.

Eloise’s Birthday Rule

It’s important to note:

  • Eloise can only eat cake on her birthday.
  • If you try to feed her a cake earlier, the game will notify you that it’s not possible.
  • In the current cycle, her birthday is in 77 days.

So even if you prepare a cake early, you’ll need to wait until her birthday arrives before you can actually give it to her.

  • Save your finished cake until her birthday—it won’t spoil, so you can have it ready.

Gather your ingredients, craft your favorite cake, and mark the calendar for Eloise’s birthday in 77 days.
