Get Baked's viral chocolate cake is getting a limited edition peanut butter upgrade
ManiLife and Get Baked team up to unleash a 16-layer masterpiece laced & loaded with crunchy peanut butter, landing in Headlingley on Saturday…while it lasts! ManiLife, the cult favourite peanut butter brand known for its roasts, bold flavour and serious dedication to quality, has teamed up with viral bakery legends Get Baked to launch a new, outrageous limited edition spin on one of the UK’s most talked about cakes.
Bert, Get Baked’s iconic 16-layer chocolate cake, has already achieved legendary status and viral fame for his richness and size, but now he’s been reimagined with ManiLife’s award-winning Deep Roast™ Crunchy Peanut Butter, and things are about to get a whole lot drippier, crunchier and nuttier.
Launching this Saturday, 2nd August from 12pm in Get Baked’s Leeds store until stocks last, Peanut Butter Bert is a baking masterpiece stacked with the same luxurious 8 tiers of dark chocolate cake and sandwiched with 8 rich layers of silky Colombian single-origin milk chocolate ganache. But now he’s laced with thick, crunchy and salty swirls of ManiLife’s most iconic and popular flavour, and has gone fully nuts.
And that’s not all. Taking things to the next level, Peanut Butter Bert comes as a bundle with ManiLife’s Cocoa Dusted Peanuts, caramelised in small batches and coated in rich cocoa and sea salt, along with a generous serving of Peanut Butter Fudge Sauce. This unholy trio is made for drenching, stacking and devouring.
ManiLife’s Deep Roast™ Crunchy is no ordinary peanut butter. It was a pioneering launch, born from a happy accident when a batch of peanuts were left roasting a little too long. The result is a game changing intensity and deep roasted flavour that no other peanut butter on the market comes close to.
After months of testing and 1,600kg of peanut butter later, the perfected bundle is as equally ridiculous as it is delicious. The award-winning peanut butter brings a savoury, nutty edge that cuts beautifully through the rich chocolate ganache, creating a perfectly balanced hit of sweet, salty, creamy and slight bitterness in every bite. While the added crunch of ManiLife’s Cocoa Dusted Peanuts contrasts with the smooth Peanut Butter Fudge Sauce for a texture that takes this bake into full blown obsession territory.
ManiLife founder Stu Macdonald, said: “Great things often happen when you push things too far - Deep Roast is case in point; a batch of burned peanuts became the greatest peanut butter innovation in history. Some might say that Peanut Butter Bert is pushing things too far, and they’d probably be right. But they’d also be right if they said it was THE most deliciously indulgent, outrageous cake creation, ever made. I can’t wait. The masses are going to go absolutely mad for it.”
Get Baked founder Rich Myers, added: “This Peanut Butter Bert bundle is an unholy union of chocolate and peanuts in the best bloody way possible. We don’t mess with Bert unless it’s worth it, and ManiLife’s Deep Roast takes him to another level. Bolder and nuttier, he’s completely unhinged now and we’re all here for it.”
The limited edition bundle is a purposeful collision of two brands who live for taste, quality, and doing things properly. ManiLife and Get Baked both started in their mums’ kitchens, with nothing but an idea, a lot of trial and error, and a serious love of food.
Today, both are known for creating products with single origin ingredients that people don’t just like - they crave. With a shared focus on small-batch production, craft, and flavour above all else, it was only a matter of time before they joined forces.
Peanut Butter Bert, served as a slice with ManiLife’s Cocoa Dusted Peanuts and Peanut Butter Fudge Sauce, will be available in store at Get Baked’s Leeds store from Friday 1st August for £22. from Saturday 2nd August for £22. For anyone who can’t make it down, the bundle will be available online from Friday 1st August, made for loading up slices at home.
With only 10,000 available, Peanut Butter Bert is a strictly limited edition release. Known for viral sell-outs and frenzied demand, Get Baked has a history of leaving fans scrambling. This nutty collaboration won’t stick around for long, so cake lovers are urged to move fast to secure their slice of the madness.
