These [cakes for dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-birthday-cake-toy) from Puppy Cake provide pet owners with an easy way to spoil their furry friends. The grain-free cake [peanut butter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buddy-budder) and salted caramel mixes include everything needed to prepare a homemade treat from scratch, with hot tap water needed as the only addition.

The two-piece cake is made from a crust of coconut, carob and gelatin, plus a cheesecake top layer that's made with similar wholesome ingredients. The brand notes: "Unlike cakes for people, Puppy Cakes are healthy and safe for your dog," when fed in moderation.

Puppy Cake also makes a variety of dessert-inspired treats for dogs, including chilled Jello-like bone chews, as well as [ice cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doggy-ice-cream) and cookie mixes.
