Dirt cake
Template:Short description Template:Infobox prepared food
Dirt cake, also called dirt and worms, is an American cake made from cookies and pudding in combination with other ingredients to create a dessert that has a resemblance to soil or earth. It is made by combining crushed Oreo cookies on top of vanilla or chocolate pudding, and adding gummy candy worms on top.[1][2][3] Variations include vanilla wafers, vanilla pudding,[4] whipped cream or Cool Whip, and cream cheese pudding in the recipe.[3]
Several bakeries in Singapore sold dirt cakes served in flowerpots after the dessert appeared on the Taiwanese show A Hint of You.[5] In 2016, chefs in Bangalore created a dirt cake weighing 1,078 kg, setting a Guinness world record.[6][7] In 2024, Oreo released a limited edition Dirt Cake flavor cookie.[8][9]
