Cake Café Turns Cairo’s Street Batata Into a Full Dessert Station

Cake Café has decided Cairo’s street-corner staple needed a stage upgrade. Enter the Batata Station: a build-your-own sweet potato bar, launched under their Grill & Gather catering arm. What was once sold from a metal cart and eaten with a plastic spoon is now an interactive dessert spread with toppings, drizzles, and more options than anyone really needs.

Here’s how it works: roasted sweet potatoes line up like contestants, waiting to be dressed in caramel, marshmallows, chocolate, nuts - or all of the above. Now available for home gatherings and dinner parties, the Batata Station is proof that in Cairo, even the simplest traditions can be reheated, glazed, and passed off as the evening’s main event.
