If you’re an employer, HR manager, or team leader looking to plan your next team-building event in the Portland area, you’ve probably seen the usual suspects: axe throwing, bowling, escape rooms, and sip-and-paint nights. But if you’re looking for something that’s hands-on, social, and a little sweeter, Cake Hoopla has the perfect solution: cake and cupcake decorating.
Located just a few minutes from downtown Portland, right off I-5 in Tigard, Cake Hoopla offers corporate cake-decorating experiences that are unlike anything else in the local team-building scene.
Why Cake Decorating is a Better Team-Building Activity
Team-building activities work best when they’re fun, low-pressure, and spark real connection. That’s exactly what we do at Cake Hoopla. Here’s why a decorating session at our Portland-area team-building venue hits the sweet spot:
1. It’s Playful, Not Awkward
No trust falls. No uncomfortable icebreakers. Just frosting, sprinkles, and a whole lot of fun. Whether your team is competitive or collaborative, everyone can relax and enjoy the creative process.
2. It’s Unique (and Tasty)
Unlike a painting you’ll forget in your trunk for weeks, you leave Cake Hoopla with something you actually want: a delicious, decorated dessert you mastered yourself. It’s hands-on fun with an edible reward at the end.
3. We Sell Beer and Wine
Because sometimes creativity flows better with a little bubbly. We’re one of the few corporate event venues near Portland with a beer and wine license, perfect for after-work bonding or happy hour events.
4. It’s Easy to Get Here
We’re located just off I-5 in Tigard, with quick and easy access from downtown Portland, Beaverton, Lake Oswego, and beyond. No winding detours or complicated directions.
5. No Cleanup Required
We handle all the setup, materials, and cleanup. You just show up, decorate, have a blast, and leave with something sweet.
Perfect for:
- Company celebrations
- Staff-appreciation events
- Department off-sites
- Client entertainment
- Administrative Professionals Day
- Holiday parties and more

Choose from our themed cake or cupcake kits, like “To the Moon,” “Beeyonce's,” or the freestyle “Wild & Free” option. Each person gets a decorating kit with pre-baked treats, colorful frosting, sprinkles, fondant, and all the tools they need to create something delicious.
