How & Where to Feed

Place the energy cake in a dedicated energy cake feeder, set on a bird table, or place in a ground feeder tray. The broad species appeal of the honey and seed combination makes this cake effective across multiple feeder types — try it in a hanging feeder for tits and finches, or on a bird table or ground feeder for robins, blackbirds, and thrushes. Replace when empty or after prolonged wet weather.

Attract More Birds to Your Garden

The honey-coated seed content and aniseed oil make this cake effective across a wide range of garden bird species. Regular feeding can attract robins, blue tits, great tits, coal tits, long-tailed tits, house sparrows, chaffinches, dunnocks, nuthatches, pheasants, song thrushes, woodpeckers, and blackbirds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What birds do seed & honey energy cakes attract?
The honey-coated seeds and aniseed oil give this cake very broad species appeal — robins, blue tits, great tits, coal tits, long-tailed tits, house sparrows, chaffinches, dunnocks, nuthatches, woodpeckers, blackbirds, and song thrushes all respond well. These are among the most broadly appealing wild bird treats for a mixed garden bird population.

What is an energy cake and how do I use it?
An energy cake is a solid suet-based feed moulded into a cake shape — denser and longer-lasting than loose suet pellets or fat balls. Place in a dedicated energy cake feeder, on a bird table, or in a ground feeder tray. The honey and seed content makes these effective across both hanging feeders and ground-level feeding points.

Are energy cakes suitable all year round?
Yes — the high-fat suet content is especially valuable in winter, while the calcium and protein content supports birds during the spring breeding season. In very hot weather, place in a shaded spot to prevent the suet from softening.

What is aniseed oil and why is it added?
Aniseed oil is a natural attractant that many garden birds find appealing — it helps draw birds to a new feeder or food source more quickly. It also aids digestion, making the cake easier for birds to process alongside their natural diet.

How long will a 325g cake last?
In peak winter feeding with regular visitors, a single cake typically lasts 1–2 weeks. If you go through them quickly, the 5-pack offers much better value per cake.

What are the ingredients?
Winston Wilds Seed & Honey Energy Cake contains: Seed, Grains, Peanut Kibbles, Sunflowers, Raisins, Currants, Cereals, Suet, Sunflower Hearts, Honey, Calcium Carbonate, and Aniseed Oil. A nutritionally complete wild bird treat with no artificial flavourings.

How should I store energy cakes?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. In warm weather, keep indoors until needed as heat can cause the suet to soften. Replace in the feeder after prolonged wet weather to keep the cake fresh.
