Baby Cakes performs best in a fairly neutral soil, with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5. The soil should also be well-drained. Fertilizing is not necessary for Baby Cakes to grow and produce berries; however, it can help the plant thrive. A balanced liquid fertilizer in early and late spring is ideal. Watering varies depending on climate.
