    Yes please. I was here on day one but left after the bot problems. Came back for One Tamriel the next year and have never left. Only cake I'm missing is the first. Please make them available if we were here.

    Sorry, but in my view the purpose of an event reward is to acknowledge that you participated in the event.

    You can do the event a lot and not receive it. This is because the event quest is completely unconnected to the event itself (apart from running at the same time). The event has you do daily quests. The cake is received from a 1-time quest at a starter city or from the crown store. You can also just do that 1 quest and otherwise ignore it and have a cake. Due to this, people who actually did much more of the event can actually have less cake than those who didn't do any dailies at all. The way this particular event is setup, it does not do a good job of rewarding event participation.

    The mementos at least do a better job than the furnishings for reasons I already explained.

    "Let them eat cake...."

    Truthfully, I've come to the conclusion that the furnishing cakes should be available for every year someone has been playing, for which I'm pretty sure ZOS has the info.

    I don't really care much myself as I'm not into making a bakery - but I do know several people who are interested in doing so. They'd like to have all the cake furnishings.

    The point of it being acquirable is to show that you participated.

    The first year you could use other people's cake. You could participate without doing quest.

    Back on point let people who where here have the old cake please

    I just want the cake furnishings instead of mementos.
    Old players can have the own cake mementos to prove that they take part in the events.
    And new players can have the cake furnishings.
    That's win win.

    Please add the Emperor's Regalia to the same shop with mementos.
    People who entered Cyrodiil once lack of it very much.

    I am not sure, but I seem to remember some of the earlier cake mementos worked on subsequent years, so the new cake was not needed if you had it from the past year... I could be wrong; I have slept since then... a few times at least. Those earlier cakes were also able to be used by others, further limiting the need to do it yourself...

    Then they came out with the furniture item based on if you did the cake quest for each event. As we can't go back and do the cake quests from years past (another option perhaps if the character/account is old enough) then having access to the cakes of those years we were playing (perhaps requiring ESO+ from those years and yes, I have been subscribed and paying for ESO that long).

    An option may be a "Cooking Class" quest that folks who were subscribed back then to go "Learn" how to make those earlier cakes based on the age of the account.
    Of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most...

    I think I just want them to come out with more cake furnishings in general.

    It's sad the only cake furnishings we have are all event cakes; I would like a few more plain cakes or decorated cakes that have nothing to do with the Anniversary (and don't have the pedestals).

    Love to see stuff like yule log cakes and various cheesecakes and fruit infused cakes and little tarts and such. Let us be able to make a bakery in our houses, darnit!

    I'd like to also be able to buy the *furnishing*. Not the memento. I'm not interested in getting the memento post-event. But the cake furnishings... yes... as a housing fan I'd be really interested in being able to buy them even if for a variety of reasons I couldn't participate in that particular event.

    Or the years we were here but was confused on how quest worked as year 1 and 2 were vouchers

    This! I've participated in every event, yet somehow I missed the 2016 and 2018 cakes! I would love to be able to get them retroactively.

    I missed a couple of cakes during a long break and that's on me. While I now have a hole in my virtual soul that could only be filled with e-cake, it was my choice to step away from the game and I accept that I've missed out. It seems like a good opportunity for some FOMO folks to work on desensitizing and let's be real, it's just a cosmetic.

    I have all the mementos and furnishings and, quite oddly I now see, have never viewed them as rewards for participating in the event. The mementos are mostly tools to obtain tickets and double XP, so much so this year's cake was included in the "tools" tab. The furnishings are very nice and I've seen them used very creatively. Since I don't view the mementos as some sort of badge for having participated in a certain year's jubilee, it wouldn't bother me for others to have access to them. I just wonder why they'd want them, as I rarely see people using those outside of the event. As for the furnishings, by all means make every single cake accessible to every single player. It's cake, for crying out loud, let people have it! Furthermore, we should get a pie of misrule furnishing too!

    I lined all jubilee cakes at the guild hall I created, so people can see their evolution through time and, well, because they're cakes and that's a good enough reason. My intention was not to brag, but after reading this thread I wonder if that's how it was perceived.

    This is why I made this post. I think a lot of people missed the cakes during the time they already had an account.

    I would love that! :heart: I started playing ESO in 2015 for a short while, on PC/NA, had no idea what I was doing, then had to take a break until autumn 2018 because of real life things. But even then, it took me another year or so until I also made a character on PC/EU, who I then decided to build a little bakery for. So I'm missing one of the cakes I have on NA, and on both servers I'm missing a few that I couldn't get while I wasn't actively playing until late in 2018. And those just happen to be the plain ones that would look the best for a bakery themed house!

    Alternatively, of course, maybe it would be possible if we could get more plain cake furnishings. :smile: That would retain the uniqueness of the event cakes.

    I was there from Day one and have all the others except the first. Left early cuz game was not good and came back for One Tamriel which I like very much.

    Would very much appreciate a chance to get the only one I missed and think it fair because I was there for the start.

    The ones I don't have on PC, I was actually playing ESO on another platform. So unless ZOS was to implement a frame where we can take a screenshot and I can show the cakes from another platform. I would like a way to get them on PC.
