Fortnite Birthday Cakes have returned to maintain the annual tradition, and this time they're marking the 7th anniversary of the battle royale – can you believe that it has been running for seven whole years now?! That means it's time to track down these giant bakes and help yourself to some slices, in order to tick off an entry in the Birthday Fortnite quests that are available for one week only. This means you'll have to act fast, as once October 1 rolls around the caterers will be packing up for another year. If you're ready to eat slices of birthday cake in Fortnite, then here's where to find them.

Where to find Birthday Cakes in Fortnite

For the 7th anniversary celebration you'll find Birthday Cakes in Fortnite have been delivered to ten different named locations, which means that you'll find them at many but not all of the main places of interest. Look out for the large cakes surrounded by smaller slices, with brightly colored bunches of balloons surrounding them. For reference, the following are Fortnite Birthday Cakes locations for the 2024 event:

  • Castle Doom
  • Doomstadt
  • Grand Glacier
  • Grim Gate
  • Mount Olympus
  • The Raft
  • Reckless Railways
  • Redline Rig
  • Restored Reels
  • The Underworld

To eat slices of birthday cake in Fortnite, simply approach any of the plates on the ground surrounding the large centerpiece and follow the Consume prompt to chomp it down. There are eight slices of birthday cake surrounding each main cake, but naturally if another player has already eaten them then you'll have to look elsewhere. Each slice of birthday cake consumed provides +10 health or shields, but you should still be able to eat it even if your stats are maxed out.
