"Baby Cakes" is the only single by the British garage trio 3 of a Kind. It reached the number one spot in the United Kingdom in August 2004.[1] A follow-up "Wink One Eye" was recorded but was never released. Despite this success, they never had another chart hit. The music video shows the band in a cake shop and contains several double-entendres. It was dedicated in loving memory of Joseph Caruana who died in an accident on 19 December 2001.
