# Anime Character Cake Sets Cozy Corner Just Released a Nine-Piece Pokémon Dessert Set By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2026-04-07 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pokmon-dessert-set References: [soranews24](https://soranews24.com/2026/04/06/you-can-assemble-a-well-balanced-team-of-pokemon-them-eat-them-thanks-to-japanese-cake-chain/)  Cozy Corner is encouraging you to catch 'em all with the debut of a new nine-piece Pokémon dessert set. Cozy Corner is no stranger to nine-piece cake sets, with previous sets including Marvel, Alice in Wonderland, and Pixar. The cake chain's latest set features a mini-Pokédex’s worth of characters in the form of nine delicious little treats. Though each Pokémon character cake is just as cute as the last one, standouts include the banana-flavored Pikachu cake, the strawberry custard Jigglypuff tart, and the muscat grape Bulbasaur roll cake. There's also a full-sized Pikachu sponge cake that boasts a whipped cream and caramel sauce filling. The new Pokémon dessert set is available between April 5th and May 2nd, but in-store quantities are limited, so fans are encouraged to order online ahead of time.
