A Legacy of
Excellence.
Established to fill a critical gap in the Horn of Africa's baking and confectionery industry, the Addis Cake & Bake Expo was founded as a landmark platform dedicated to pastry art, desserts, and the businesses behind them.
First transforming the Addis International Convention Center (AICC) into a vibrant culinary hub, the expo bridges the gap between passion and commerce. We unite cake lovers, professional pastry chefs, café owners, ingredient suppliers, and hospitality leaders under one roof.
Beyond sweet indulgence, our mission remains focused on regional growth: empowering local businesses, highlighting international trends, and inspiring the next generation of Ethiopian baking talent.
