    |14th October
    |International<ref name="cassolotl_cake_tumblr">October 14, 2017. https://cassolotl.tumblr.com/post/166404257550</ref><ref>https://cybre.space/@cassolotl/98826563853949635</ref>
    |Established by cassolotl in 2017, who wrote that in response to how most days about trans people "involve marginalised people doing yet more work to draw attention to themselves in a dangerous environment [...] Those days can be (and always are, for me) scary and sad. [...] So I declared [this] the first annual Cake For Trans Friends Day. I ended up shortening it to Trans Cake Day [...] Basically, instead of us doing all the work, people (especially cis people, I feel!) give cake to their trans friends and family to show them how appreciated they are. There’s so much anger and violence surrounding trans people, but I think we should be celebrated and loved. [...] a bit like Mother’s Day - a birthday for every trans person to celebrate together at the same time, and be showered with goodness by people who care about us."<ref name="cassolotl_cake_tumblr" />
